Notes
After a fairly successful first grow I’m ready to take what I learned and apply it to the next one. Still not entirely sure about nutrients this run. The H+G starter kit worked great on the last one, and I started running some recharge every 21 days and blackstrap molasses as well. My soil mix is staying the same this time so I may be fine for at least 6 weeks before I really need to start worrying about amendments. I might start making a banana tea as part of my regular diet is a banana every day, shouldn’t let those peels go to waste.
The seeds this time around are Blueberry Twist “Advanced Female Seeds”(Whatever that means, lol). From @GorillaSeeds. They ran a giveaway a few weeks ago and I won on a different platform. They say they finish relatively fast and I’d like to get this grow done before I need to drain my rain collection barrel for the winter. Should have until January before that is a serious concern as we don’t usually get our harshest cold here until then. Despite saying in my previous diary that going forward I would be doing two plants, max, I decided to again try 3. I want to maximize my space and yield, and if the worst case happens and a plant doesn’t make it, I still have two for a decent harvest.
Diary:
9/7/2022: Began germination of BT seeds. Soaking in a cup of water and a little peroxide for 12hrs before transferring to a paper towel.
9/11/2022: Left the seeds in the paper towel for a day too long. These girls took off quick. They were already pushing the shell of the seed away. Dropped them into saturated seedling starter bags today and into the tent.
