Today (jan9) the seeds had been in the damp towel / Bag combo almost 60 hrs… tails are visible and protruding on the SSDD2
The Ss 4 x B-Y tails have not really moved. They have All (5) been planted.
Putting Another pair of Ss 4 x B-Ya seed in Water as Insurance.
plants fed Cap-ful of pH’d water, Saran wrapped in Motion. There is even a security cat this season. Co-Grower of sorts…
(And just before the end of the day, checking the moisture of the soils surface… I accidentally sent one of the SSDD flying across the tent, like a Ping-Pong back-hand. Took a couple minutes to find the Seed and everything went back together. But damn, things changed so quickly lol). All is good
very neat. did smth similar one time with glass chunks from a jewelry store. bought a pendant and a bracelet if owner threw in the chunks. almost 30yrs ago.
try to forget about the seeds for another 48hrs. mine usual take 3-7 days to pop up (but I also just plant directly).
glss head would be an interesting humidity dome. unique for sure.
Thanks for that. Tips are always appreciated. Loving the people on this site. Probably the most intelligently run operation I’ve seen on-a digital platform.
With the Best Topic/Focus on the Planet
Its all here for a reason
50/50 on my Back-up plan, but help is on the way.
These two Sunshine #4 x Bye-Ya extras have been put into Soil, after 60 hrs in a damp towel/plastic bag.
And it “appears” as if one of the originals has broken ground… tba its early today (13th)
BUT, this one seedling looks real HeAlThY
“2 strains” are now in the game, with Bean3 (rescue bean) of Sunshine #4 x Bye-Ya, Popping last nite.
Gave a little assistance to removing the Shell/membrane, but I think this Seed is Smiling
SSDD#2 is picking-up speed! Day 5 & I love to see those true-leaves spreading
SS#4 x Bye-Ya, may be saying Just-That… and its definite, Bye-Ya did not make it. Cotyledons did not open and the Membrane was removed.
So, shifting gears I have agitated a couple of Jack Herer Auto’s in the film canister / sand paper and they are going to help justify the Light on SSDD #2
One big and light coloured, one small and dark. (Here goes on the 17th)
Day 1 of Veg. for SSDD #2. And it ends with a Foliar app (wtf) of BudBusterPro.
Cooler temps were used in the tent, up to this point 22-23c re: @JohnnyPotseed and my need for a female. From here on in the temps will climb => 26.5c. Taking the Temp higher (27) is where I have trouble maintaining a higher rh% in a 30”
** folks: BBP will be a weekly application till at least week 2 in Flower. It is also Outside of the Nutes
One ingredient I have not mentioned, or sourced for this coming season, is Rabbit Manure. aka Bunny Honey
Last Summer was my first application of this Magic Pellet into the Substrate(s), and I could not believe the number of People/Growers that were unaware of this powerful Ingredient for the growing Mediums
Really affordable, and as soon as you begin looking, it will be very nearby…
I’m pre-planning the final containers, and its on the top of the List
Bonus Feature: does Not need to be composted. Works immediately
Here is a nice little general description:
Rabbit Manure
Rabbit manure is an excellent option for growers who need nutrients fast. Rabbit manure does not need to undergo hot composting, and thus can be added directly to the topsoil to provide nutrients to cannabis plants. Rabbit manure is absolutely loaded with nutrients and contains large quantities of nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium, along with calcium, magnesium, and zinc.
