Hey @Richard1-1 are you getting the block coco? If so I would rinse it before mixing it in. They come with a lot of salt so rinsing it good and plenty will help take that salt content down. Just my 2 cents is all.
Its already pre washed and comes buffered to help with ph fluctuations @Jbum it comes in bags not the brick,. Ive bought the bricks before but once i started using their coco i had less problem with high salinity.
Yeah I use the bags as well. I was just warning him about the blocks perhaps I should have been more specific my bad. I used that block coco and you could pretty much smell the salt it was so high!
I use the blocks as well, but i set them out in a plastic tote, and pray for rain, if you short on cash, lke most of us. Haha The blocks ar 10 bucks and tge bags are 20 it just comes buffered and washed so its convince that were actually paying for, same material
I put the two seeds in the seedling soil after the roots started showing (but wouldnāt pop out)⦠Watered them just now a little around the sides of the pot, and, and the Little Runoff was 548 ppm⦠@Jbum , @Cyle1 , @imSICKkid
How long was the tap root sticking out? How long have they been in the soil. Dont put anymore water in the cup. No need to worry about checking runoff this early. Just keep a dome over them and try to keep the RH as close to 80% as you can. Just mist the dome, not the soil.
@imSICKkid ⦠The root was visible for 3 days, but not poking out of the seed shell⦠Do you mean for Me to cut the Bottom from like a 2 liter bottle and put it On Top of the Pots, Outside in the sunlight all day covering the Seeds and dirt to make it like a Small Greenhouse effectively ??
Thanks, @Myfriendis410 , @imSICKkid , @Cyle1⦠I Can put it in shade, a Couple of Hours of Sun or None, Once or Twice a Day I can Move the Pots⦠I.ll Do whatever I Need to Do Guys⦠Tell Me what to Do, (and Iām Studying as Well) ⦠TiA
The seeds are up and the dome is on the pots⦠I cut the bottom of a 2- liter bottle for the Dome?? ⦠Next Question IS Do I leave it on there, or do I let fresh air in daily @Myfriendis410
I dont want tell wrong thing I personally have holes drilled into my domes to keep frech air going in I have to mist domes alittle more often but I dont mind
You can do like @Cyle1 suggested or remove the dome a couple of times a day, When you water, just spray the inside of the dome with a mist of distilled water. Watch the media but you likely wonāt need any water there. If you do itās like a teaspoon morning and evening.
I cut legs in the ādomesā for ventilation, and because when I picked the first one up, it brought the top inch of soil (and the Seedling) Up with it when I Lifted it⦠The Tallest Seedling is Bigger, because it got the āDomeā a day earlier than the Otherā¦
