Day 7 of seedling stage
Day 7 of seedling stage
Here we are on day 7 of seedling stage. Today I decided instead of just cal mag water I’d give them a small dose of each of the following and will see how they respond to the nutes. Silica, A+B, cal mag, and a little roots excelerator. EC at 1.0, ph at 5.6. If it’s too much for them this early, then I’ll dial it back, but if they like it, well.. GREAT! Sangria #1 is the slowest grower, #2 is the superior one, and #3 is close behind #2. Also an extra pic of how my watering/mixing station has evolved since I started.

Looking good man, well done on the room and system. If it's your first grow I think you've set yourself up for success as best you might. Make sure to check your plants and system every day even if you don't need to, I chill with mine for a good 60 seconds or so each day. The biggest point is to keep things tiddy and clean as best you can, spot clean and whatnot, don't go in there with filthy work clothes or whatever on, etc. Never leave the operation without double checking your system and settings, too. It's a good habit to develop which can save you an absolute PITA one day.

Thank you I agree the work has paid for itself with my environment being perfect around the clock without having to do much. I go down there to work everyday. I go down in the morning before work and when I get home I change and wash up and go down again to feed. Feeding twice a day now. After work and in the morning. My lights run from 5pm to 11am to fit my schedule. And every day when i go down I start by checking my hygrometers max/min then check my fans and dehumidifier and the plants of course. Sweeping up every other day etc. I went into this with these habits in my head from working in/around other big grows in the past. On the part about being too soon for nutes, that’s what I had thought and read, BUT I was just listening to the plants they seemed ready for it, they were starting to Crave nitrogen. So I figured I’d just give em the base nutes with a roots excelerator. Thanks for checking out my post also and for the comments ��

Can tell theyre almost ready to go into veg. These pictures are 2 days after the last ones that i posted. The third set of leaves has their extra blades already and if you can zoom in the middle, the 4th set is starting to come in already. Needless to point out because its obvious, but #3 is just extra wide with its leaves lol Im loving it

Yea buddeh, those look great. Never seen a prettier color than the electric green of cannabis seedlings.
Graduation Day!
Graduation Day!
These babies have graduated to 5 gallon pots! They had really nice pure white roots. Two days ago I topped them and being as healthy as could be they didn’t show any signs of stress from the topping. They will stay under the T5 until they get tall enough to move under the HID. I didn’t leave enough slack in the ducting to go low enough. So until then they’ll have to settle
