Hiya everybody. This round is a continuation of my last thread where I struggled to get seeds to sprout. I ended up throwing beans at the problem trying to figure out my issue. The issue? I believe it was narrowed down to oversaturated gro-plugs.
Either way... I threw some of my oldest seeds in the germ dome because I was tired of wasting pricey packs of good genetics. I dropped 10 Gelonade X Blueberry Cupcake seeds and got 4 keepers willing to get wet.
These seeds were on NASC's $2 dollar menu and were part of a Humbolt Seed Co phenohunt. I've seen some beautiful looking buds of this cross grown out so I'm excited. Really, I'm just excited to have some green back in the tent.
-------
Here's a couple lists of what I'll be using this round.
Equipment:
SpiderFarmer 5x5 tent
UnderCurrent 8 gallon 4-site system
CLW SolarSystem 1100 grow light
ACI Controller 69 pro
ACI 6" exhaust fan with refillable carbon filter
ACI 6" inline fan for intake from lung room
ACI CloudForge T7 humidifier
Vornado 1500w space heater
2x ACI CloudRay oscillating fans
2x BlueLab ph/ppm monitors
AquaticLife 4 stage RO/DI system
Active Aqua 1/10hp chiller
Alita 15 lpm air pump
General Hydroponics grow plugs
Nutrients:
Athena's Blended line
General Hydroponics RapidRooter
Plant Success Orca Liquid Mycorrhizae
Mr. Fulvic organic Fulvic Acid
0ppm RO/DI water
-------
The tent has been sitting at 85 degrees and 70% humidity since the seedlings were added. They've got their second set of true leaves coming in so I've dropped that down to 80 degrees with humidity sitting at 65%. I'll give it a week and drop the rH down to 60 where I'll leave it for most of the veg cycle.
Water content at the moment is just enough CaMg with Grow A and B to reach 150ppm with the pH right at 5.8 and the water level just touching the netpots. As easy as it was to weigh out the powdered nutes in my last grow, the mixing of the liquid nutes is so effortless that, depending on how the plants take it, I'll likely avoid going back to dry nutes.
I checked in this morning and WE'VE GOT ROOTS, so I dropped the water level an inch.
That's all for now, folks. Thanks for popping in. Feel free to ask some questions and/or dish out some advice. I'm pretty receptive and open to criticism. Wish me luck, dudes.
As always,
