First Time.

[GrumpAzz]

Here we are this evening. No root underneath. Today is 15 days from seed, 11 since she showed up, 1 full day in the system.

 

[GrumpAzz]

No root yet but still chugging along.

lookin healthy though

She got a weird little duckfoot but she's cute

Good growth on the new leaves last night.

 

[moe.red]

you are 18/6 right now, correct? Seems early for stipules to develop.

Roots visible yet?

No roots this morning. I'm thinking transplanting it twice might've affected that?

Yeah still 18/6. What am I looking for when you say stipules?

Edit: looked it up and it's the little pokie dudes coming out under the leaves, correct?

 

[GrumpAzz]

My chiller arrived today. How much heat do they put off? Seems counter productive to have it next to the lower rez, under the upper rez. That's the only place in the closet it would fit, so out she goes. It could go in the lung room but there lies a different problem. I like to nap in there sometimes and there'd be no room to sprawl out. I'll plumb it through the wall, right out in the open, far less incognito than initially planned.

The pump for the chiller was lost by UPS. I got my refund from Amazon and am waiting for the new one to arrive. Then we're cooling water baby. Chillin'.

Here's the bugger today and a shot of her undercarriage. Are the jets too aggressive? Is that prolonging the root process? Water level is just under the pot, less than an inch.

Depends how much it runs, the efficiency and the wattage. If you can keep it outside the grow room

I don't think it'll be too inconvenient right outside the door. It's an Active Aqua 1/10th. Shouldn't be more than 200 watts.

They can put some heat off

Completely anecdotal observation but it seems like the higher horse chillers don't put out as much heat as the 1/10th.

Might be the compressor doesn't need to work as hard at bringing down temp to set point?

or come on as often yeash

That back room is noisy as it is lol. It's way back there though so the noise isn't noticeable unless you're in our bedroom or the baby's toy room. I've got a window unit and my loud ass air pump outside the closet already. It's actually quite peaceful in the closet comparatively.

[GrumpAzz]

PH has risen .1 per day so far. Started at 5.6 and it's at 5.9 now. I expect 6.0 today at some point.

Yes, the little pointy things.

They are often confused with pre-flowers.

I just normally see them start after a few nodes. Yours happened after the cotyledons. But every plant is different. Just wanted to make sure you were not at 12/12 which can cause seedlings some strange morphology.

Yep. I took an hour out of the day early on but only for a couple days.

 

[GrumpAzz]

Here we are this evening. She looks a lot perkier than she did this morning. I'm loving the growth on this thing. I've never really grown anything from a seed, though, so this is a whole new experience for me.

No root yet. She's in a 6" netpot if that makes any kind of difference.

 

[Rootsruler]

Any roots poking out of the net pot yet?

Im gonna guess about a week to explosive growth

 

[GrumpAzz]

Not just yet. I would think any day now with how much she's growing up top.

Im gonna guess about a week to explosive growth

Man if this hasn't been explosive growth I don't know if I can handle explosive. We're 18 days from a dry seed and that just seems wild to me. I'm loving it and can tell this is gonna be such a rewarding adventure. Glad to have y'all on board.

Lol. Bless your heart. You bought some snips right?

I did but they were lost in shipping along with my pump for the chiller. New package should be arriving soon though

Kinda sucks living in bumfuck prohibition land sometimes

Can't wait man! I already want to expand just to see another little plant sprout

 

[Cool_Beans]

It'll be great dude. There is enough support here for you to cruise right over whatver bumps so enjoy the ride.

 

[Rootsruler]

I'm sitting here chuckling at the thought of when those roots hit water!!! BOOOM!!!
