Day 6 on my 2 Grape Rolex. I also planted a Chemdoggin yesterdsy thst cracked open. Hopefully she sprouts tonight. I went with a cup, because I wanted the extra heat since she didnt have a long tail yet. If they germ fast and have a decent tail I am not worried at all with direct planting. But unopened or barely opened makes me play it safer with a cup or Rootmaker. I am running low on starter soil, so I used a cup. Rootmakers take 2x as much soil at first vs a 5oz cup. So I needed to conserve this time. Plus I am saving the remaining Stater soil for Direct planting of the NEW Roc Bud Inc strains. They are brand new and will pop a nice tail in 24 hours soaking and will plant directly in Juniors. Plus it gives me time to prep all of my Juniors that need reammending. Lots of work to do this week. Flipping Fast Master plants tomorrow after I clean up the bottoms and clone some more branches. Need to top dress them too. I have a Mystery Mix plant that is looking goodx doing some Candy Cane training on her. Added the co2 bottles. Lets see if it make a difference in growth? Adding one to my other 2x4 in a minute. Got more sugar today. I will add a few pics later.
Directly planted Grape Rolex is slightly ahead so far. Nothing major only at day 6. But bigger leaves and 2nd set is also growing faster. I plan on transplanting day 12, so 6 more days. I predict we see a gap starting by thenx as the Directly planted seedling will have reached the Kis Soil with its roots by then. Having contact with Kis Soil once roots grow into it after a week or so theoretically should provide the plant with food sooner than a transplant. When I transplant I notice it takes a few days, maybe 3 to 5 days before you notice much change in growth speed. But once they sinkntheir roots in you see rspid growth. Eliminating that 3 to 5 day slow down window can actually translate to finishing 7 to 10 days sooner on the back end. Obviously if your temps are too low, directly planting can potentially SLOW root development down at first. So I am really happy to have my small 2x4 starter tents. They are perfect for Juniors. I have a small Cooling fans that have built in Speed Controllers as my extraction fans on my 2x4 tents. I dont use a Carbon Filter on my veg tents, so the A/C Infinity project fans are ideal for the 2x4 tents. You dont get the massive NEGATIVE pressure like larger fans for extraction. Making it perect to control temps and humidity. But because I have a kid and a wife with a nose like a blood hound, I have to run Carbon Filters in my Flower areas with Negative pressure always to eliminate all smells. So I have braces for the sides to help with tents sides sucking in and also a Scrogg in a couple flowering tents to train the plants. I like scroggs when you have plants on the same schedule, otherwise I dont use them. Pics in a few. Peace, slow
