Thank you @budbrother . My only worry is I brewed it inside on top of the floor heating so the temperature was over 20c, maybe more than 25c because i started with warm water(only took 2 days to look like this). Then again my outdoor temps have been around 0c for the last few days.
The KNF guys advice to brew it in the same temp as the grow spots are, do you think this is a problem?

That’s about what your root zone is gonna be around anyway. I don’t see a problem.

Here we go! First wave is in the moist!
Got some Gorilla Zkittlez, Blueberry, Northern Lights, Frostbanger and Banana Purple Punch(all autos naturally) in the brew.
I have added a Spider Farmer smart power strips into my grow room, which will hopefully help me in keeping the climate good and steady from now on.
I also got a heating cable ment for reptile terrarium. I’ll snake this between the pots to keeping the rootzone warm.
Anyone used this or the power strip before? All i sights are welcome!

I have heat cables for 246 liter (65gal) plant pots but never tried the reptile ones. Heating cables go inside the pots about mid way from bottom, so not sure if they’d work outside, snaked around.
Edit: Probably just end up with hotspots around the outside of the pots, but it is low wattage; so who knows.

Day 3, all seem to grow normally. Some got a bit leggy so I lowered the light a little, upped the power a bit too and placed a fan torward the seedlings to give them some movement.
The forecast gives us 20c by the time of the planned transplant (around day 14) which is welcome news after llast summers disastrous cold front!
I got so exited I filled 13 5g fabric pots and popped more seeds!
In those go Apricot, Lemon Cherry Cookies, Guava, Gelato by Fastbuds plus Ravenberry and 505 Headbanger by Mephisto.

Also I have to add, the Smart power strip works amazing! Temps and humidity seem to stay in check and I don’t have to worry about the timer working or not…
That was money well spent!

Yesterday the cotyledon leaves and the first real leaves were the same size as in the pic above, and today all the real leaves are clearly bigger than the cotyledon ones.
That means the babies are happy and growing. I’ve fed them cnut water 15ml/l and Woodoo Juice 1ml/liter in around 40-50ml doses twice now.
I think it all comes down to the right watering regime and a good level of moisture in the soil before dropping the sprouted seed in it.
That is in the 1,5 liter pots. In the other tent I dropped seeds in 5g(20liter) pots, and there I will water 500ml every 3 days from the get go and going up to 1 liter by day 14.
Makes a big difference the pot size.
Now I know you all knew all this already but I find it very rewarding when I find out that I have really learned something and see the results. I keep this journal so I can come back to it for reference in my future grows and it has already helped me alot!
This weekend I read this through from the beginning and was reminded of many potential mistakes to avoid as well as new stuff to implement in this year’s grow season. Special honorary mention to @Budbrother , I hope I can keep leaning on you this summer as well!!
