Hey guys, back in action again with a way more secure grow spot; much more safe and weed friendly.
Anyways, so I'm currently trying "trying" to grow some Mephisto Grapey Walter, germed it in wet paper towel and she popped day 3. Threw her in a soil mixture of perlite, biobizz lightmix and my own compost. She was at day 20 yesterday and here is where my problems occur. For the past 4 grows I have done, I DONT KNOW WHAT. But my plants are ALWAYS shrimp dick size when they should have at least 4 nodes and decent sized fan leaves; even in the picture despite her current condition she should have been bigger, I know because I have COMBED the internet looking for comparisons. They dont show signs of stress, only malnourishment or lack of stretch and physical growth, for reasons I cannot seem to figure out. All my grows are outdoors.
So onto the current problem at hand, I attempted to correct what I believed was a humidity issue with Walter here, so I placed a moistened glass bowl over her overnight.(In a sorry attempt to correct her size)
Came and checked on her today to find out she was actually cooked, to my belief. My mistake, should not have used glass. Lesson learned, saran wrap next time.
Final rant, is it possible to cook the roots due to the fabric pot being black? I plan on wrapping the pot in a white paper towel on the next grow so to try and prevent a bake sesh.
FINAL FINAL note, all I was giving Walter in terms of food was ph'd water at 6.5 with a dose of mychorrizae every other watering, that was it; no liquid fertilizer, I wanted to see if natural nutrients from compost would make a difference at all. So there ya have it folks, any input or assistance is of course greatly appreciated!!!
