I am going to be doing my cannabis growing journal a little differently for these seeds. I ran out of the same strain, so I had to put a few different ones in the same tent. And due to this it will be hard to say which is which. So this will just be a more generic grow log instead of focusing on the strains.
We are approaching the point of where my previous seedlings failed. So I am curious if they do better this time.. Lots is different. New soil mix, lights are higher up and with less wattage, and watering them is now done with just a dropper and shot glass. So hopefully they are getting just enough water, light and good soil to be happy now.
No idea which is which, some may be autos.. some may be photo periods.
Their age is anywhere from 5 days old, the youngest in the upper right corner. All the way to the oldest, at 3 weeks in the bottom right corner. The two others are a few days in between.
The biggest of the bunch is getting ready to form its third set of nodes. Soon it will be time to top them.
By cutting off the top it will encourage new growth more horizontally and less vertically.
The others are still too small to do much with, but glad to see they are growing more every day.
I had to go back to using my metal halide light and not the LEDs as I found the temperatures were too low and the germination was starting to drop. So I got my lights pulled all the way to the top, and with the lowest wattage bulb. Seems like they are doing better this time.
The smallest of the bunch just a few days old now. Before this one, a few failed.. So I had to start over a few times, this was resolved as soon as I got the tent temperatures back into the 70s and 80s with my metal halide light setup.
Not sure if I will keep the netting, mostly had it to hold up the LED lights. Due to having different strains in the same tent doing another SCROG grow will not work so well.
The soil has been amended with more seed starting mix, hopefully they like the mixture now and do better. I think I had more of a soil issue than a light issue. So hopefully addressing that will be the main thing that was hindering my seedlings.
Beyond the changes inside the grow tent, I also added some storage racks and a small work table by the tent.
This is nice to have so I do not need to just lay everything in the tub, or strewn across the ground. I got everything I need just about... Different kinds of soil, liquid fertilizer, dry fertilizer, mosquito bits, spare bulbs, an extra fogger, yeast and sugar.
