Grandaddy Purp Soil

Kicked off by putting taproots in rapid rooters on July 4th. New veg and a new flower tent. Hope for perpetual process. Plan to veg 8 weeks, take clones and immediately into flower for 8 more weeks. Medium is soil and using some automation.

Looking good. When I inserted one of the watering spikes I must have damaged the main taproot on one of the plants. It pretty much stopped growing and died. So, big caution for future. Fortunately, the grow plan is for 4 plants because of space, but was hoping to have all until the switch to flower was made and then lose the least desirable. Now, it’s these girls from her on out.

Transplanted into beer cups and lowered the light right down to about 2 inches above leaves. Temp and humidity noticeably more stable just with the addition of a little soil. Setting up automated water system in next day or two.

Raised light to about 8 in above tray to lower temps. Helped the last seedling by removing the stubborn seed hush that would not fully open, so hopefully she’ll begging to open leaves now.

All are looking good. Roots starting to break through the bottom of the rapid rooters except for our girl who is taking her time in the upper right corner. One note, her stalk is thicker than the tall girls. Not sure if that’ll carry through in the coming weeks and months but wanted to note it. Left the dome on but lowered the LED light down to just about touching the dome today.

A couple seed husks have fallen off the first leaves. Misted with liquid karma mixed at a 5ml/gal ratio. Cracked the air vents on the dome.

Tested the moistureland auto watering system today. Total flow rate is 350 ml per min. I’ll have 5 pots so 70 ml per minute per pot. Figuring I’ll start with a 3 or 4 minute watering once a day.
