Here is my weekly update:
AvT is doing her thing in the nursery and I have a feeling she's gonna be a healthy sized girl. She's stretched almost to the lid and looking like she's hungry, so we have been giving her a light solution of rapid start and calmag from a spray bottle. Tonight she will go into a 3.5 gallon bucket with a very light solution to get things going. We also moved the cob light down a little more to keep her warmer during these miserable months of winter.
As for GWK:
Unfortunately her root riot cube kept getting absolutely drenched for some reason. To the point where you could literally squeeze out a decent amount of water. We tried what we could but to no avail she passed away. (I still have no damn clue why it does that sometimes) So what I did Sunday night was get another one soaking in a shot glass and waited for her to sink and start cracking. She went into another cube as of Tuesday, and this time we made damn sure the cube was not wet. We just stuck her into the cube as is. The cube was moist enough as to where nothing would be drenched. I'd rather have to spray the cube due to it being dry than try to squeeze water out. Nothing has popped yet, but I anticipate in a day or two she will.. hopefully
I'm not sure if I could still use GWK or not along with AvT for the competition. Today is the official deadline so if I can cool, but if not, I totally understand, and will just roll with AvT. Regardless she will still be noted in the journal that I have going.
