Yup
Mykos by their instructions.
Just going to have to play the waiting game and if it doesn’t work out then I’ll dump it in the mixing tub, add some more perlite (currently 25-30%) then put it in a 5 gallon and try again with a photo. Tempted to do it regardless but I’ll give it time. Maybe I’ll be taking a master kush clone and running that after all, fate will decide now.

Yes, when it comes to coco, I would recommend the canna coco blocks. You don’t have to rinse or buffer, just hydrate and go.

After searching cab=nna precisely as spelled, I’m going to go out on a limb and guess that you meant canna coco brand?.?
Cab=nna only found local taxi cab companies. Thanks for the tip.

Milky Way….RIP
Taproot and stem dampened off. This coco holds moisture like soil so I will have to throw conventional coco water schedule wisdom out the window and go by my observations. The My Thai looks like it is finally growing a little bit after a few days of stalling. Dropped a Pina Colada auto to replace the MW so it will be all ethos in there if all goes according to plan.

Sorry to hear about the Milky Way bro. I think I killed 6 or 7 autos this season before figuring out how they react in my growing conditions. I certainly would not have thought coco would hold water like yours has. Pina Colada and My Thai seem like they go together better anyway. :joy:
Stay at it man. :sunglasses::metal:t2:

Thanks shade. I’m not having much luck with RQS seeds but it seems like the problem is me. I will say that I have had the best luck with ILGM stock. Ethos has not been too bad either but they seem a little bit more sensitive to imperfections in my technique.

That’s the way it always is for me…and not just with growing. :rofl:

Well, it’s planted. Not quite 24 hr soak but has a nub poking out so good enough. I hand tilled to expose still moist coco then put er in tail up, light pat and close up the tent. Shouldn’t be too damp this time. As mentioned above the my thai is finally showing a second pair of true leaves and they are minuscule but do look just a bit bigger than this afternoon. Up til yesterday it looked like a tiny corn stalk with its skinny cots and fried yellow first leaves pointed skyward. Still rocking the same phone with terrible slightly blurry selfie cam pics only so it doesn’t exactly show up like it looks to me here live but y’all can maybe see what I mean by the last pic in p#1268.

Hey brother hope you’re doing well
Had a rough start getting seeds to pop this go around so took a little extra time
I just finished up potting them from solo to 1 gallon pots. I’m heading out for a week on vacation with the wife leaving tomorrow morning heading to little rock ar in the old RV
I’ll be updating my journal while I’m gone the wife likes to sleep in so I’ll have time.
I started a complete bath remodel Monday got the job from recommendation of past customer we did there’s
I bid the job the day before we started (my brother and I)
Old house a lot of water damage even has an old can trap for the tub drain instead of the p-trap.

Talk soon brother hope you have a good weekend

IDK why I had issues but I’m in no hurry I’m going to veg these awhile anyway I’m looking forward to the CBD cream and cheese so I want a big plant since only 1 seed out of 5 made it

I won’t even try if it’s plugged or leaking I will replace it.
It’s less than 3ft from the main sewer
I was told the water lines and drains were already tested so far I found 3 pressure leaks before even starting my upgrades, and the kitchen drain and the HVAC drains were just laying on the crawl space floor not even hooked up.
Good thing we had the floor out so I could enter the crawl from the top cause I could not go through the outside opening with my back issues don’t know how you get in some of these places

Worst crawl in terms of tightness is forever seared in my memory. Richmond has a lot of historical properties in its fan district that have crawls that don’t seem like they were designed for a human being but the worst one was only accessible by step ladder in a small root cellar. Opening not much bigger than a c space vent. Had to bend body 90 degrees left as I wiggled in and once inside belly slide /drag with joists scraping my back. Shallow breathing or you’d get stuck in this 50-60 ft trench to the front where there was a hole dug down to allow just enough room for a skinny guy (me) to turn over and connect a fireplace floor valve. Had to tie the tool bag to my belt to bring them along. That wasn’t bad enough though because someone had loosely hung several alarm or data wires the full length of the trench that would snag but no way to reach back and do anything about it. Top it off with broken glass, brick rubble and coal dust. Emerged looking like the old timey comedy scene when someone had something blow up in their face.

I’m assuming/ hoping that place is unoccupied with all that going on?
I’m imagining a pile of kitchen waste sludge but hopefully for your sake not or at least unused for long enough to dry out and die off. Sometimes a sheet of plastic just isn’t enough.

Man OQ… you’re bringing back not so fond memories of running data cables in the same area. :joy::sunglasses::metal:t2:

Well now I know who’s responsible​:rofl::joy:
National shortage of wire staples or just a case of the f*** its?

:rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl:
Most likely the inability to cross one arm over yourself to hold and staple. So stick the cable in the staple and hope like hell it didn’t fall out. :rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl:
Tightest crawlspaces I’ve ever seen in that area. True nightmare jobs. :crazy_face:
We always tried to run ours tight… but sometimes… :face_with_symbols_over_mouth::joy::rofl:
