Seeds stayed in warm water for 24 hours/until the tap root appeared and rockwool cubes were ph’d to between 5.7 and 6.0 somewhere, I used the water colouring drops, they don’t exactly have enough water in them for the pH pen to be able to submerge.
Well, half of my last grow, Lemon Haze turned out terrible. Hopefully this time they’ll be equally good.
Pushing boundaries is a long way from here, I’m happy they survive and yield something.
That’s a good idea.
Btw I’m glad you’re here, I’m planning on topping/doing some training and you seem to be kind of an expert in making them grow in whatever weird shape you come up with.
Thanks for tagging me in…hope you grow is fun and fruitful…so your in rockwool cubes where do they go from here? And how did you stabilize the ph of your cubes?
Clay pebbles, dwc hydro. There will be pictures like a week from now, this time I’m documenting everything.
PH was stable even before I started, a stable 7, and that’s too high. So I brought it down by soaking them in lower pH water (around 5-5.5) for 24 hours.
You’re definitely an expert compared to me, all I’ve ever done was some light pruning.
I’m not planning to do anything like your insane arrow shaped plants, all I want is the lower buds getting more light. I don’t even know yet if I wanna do lst or go for scrog. Time (and hopefully you) will tell.
Meet Wanda. Naming them was a bit more of a challenge this time, first grow I had different strains so calling them that did the trick, but in this instance it wouldn’t work. WD1 and WD2 sounded kinda impersonal or dispassionate or I don’t know and WDa and WDb is even worse. Them being dwarves I though about Gimli and Glóin but I didn’t want to cause them gender dysphoria so I came up with WanDa and WenDy, and the first one got Wanda because alphabet.
They’re on a windowsill currently, when both of them will sprout I’ll put them under the light. When I do that, do I keep the humidity dome or not? Last time I took them out, but wasn’t part of this wonderful community yet so I couldn’t ask and I still don’t know if it’s the right way.
@Graysin, you were right btw. It’s been two weeks since I turned everything off and it still feels weird coming home to that silence. Most of the time when I’m at home I either listen to music, play my guitar or play call of duty so there’s kinda constant noise but between songs and between matches I still notice the silence and want to look at the tent then I realize I don’t have to because I turned them off.
Oh man idle equipment you should be farther along for less of a gap. Its all good I have it so I pull a few and graduate a few. Prune when graduation happens and then clone.
That makes a lot of sense, but I’ll only learn the lesson when it’s three weeks left and I’ll realize it could already be done if I don’t waste all that time between them.
On another note, I gave Lemon Haze another try and it’s still shit weed but it smells and tastes better. Curing is insane, I never thought it would work, like what is even the science behind it? You keep them closed in a sort of airtight container then you let some fresh air in from time to time, how does it enhance flavours and smell? SB tastes different too, curing really does something, I just don’t understand what and how.
The grove bags make it so you dont need to burb then the best thing is to walk away all strains are different ive had some smoked pre cured that was done as far as I was concered but the curing helps the end i believe the evaporation of the chlorophyll grassy smell and taste
