2nd Grow: Autos - Coco

[Angrytomato]

First one went pretty well with some help from on here. Stressed me out alot tho especially near the end.
Doind a 24/0 cycle this time using a 300w Tsw2000 in a 1mx1mx2m tent and I'm using the protone app for ppfd, been told its decently accurate for a free app and it's better than nothing I suppose. Got it set at about 150

Using advanced nutrients bloom A&B with overdrive, carboload, big bud, sensizym, voodoo juice, B52, sensi-cal and I will be getting some bud candy and maybe some rhino skin.
I'll be starting at 100ppm for my nutrients increasing by 10 everyday until they go into flower and I'll recalculate. Really don't think I gave enough during flower last time.

So I got 5 going, planted today all from Dutch passion again.
3 auto blueberry's
1 auto critical orange punch (free) and
1 auto daiquiri lime (free)
4* 5 gallon fabric pots and a single 1 gallon plastic plant pot that I want to experiment with 1 of the blues. I'm trying a small single cola plant. Want to see if it's easier to manage and better to grow a lot of smaller plants rather than a few normal size.
I soaked them in water till they sank to the bottom when tapped, about 24 hours, and just planted them (no paper towel method) saturated the soil real good and covered them with clear domes for humidity.

Next post might be a week from now when I know how many survived. But I'll take pics when they/if pop.

Woohoo fresh beans.
Good morning @Angrytomato hope you are well today my friend.
I'm going to hop on the bus beside Tok and NTH if that's OK.
Happy growing Amigo.

Stay safe

Day 1
All but one (the orange punch) has popped up out the soil, but it has cracked its shell so might be a day or two if it survives (ill give it till the 26th). All are around round 1" tall and looking pretty nice atm. Temps between 25c - 27c or 77f - 80.6f, Humidity around 60% atm.
1 shot glass of water every 6-10 hours about 2 inch around the base of the stem. 0.5 ml of bloom A&B and 0.25ml of B52 and voodoo juice! Adjusted water content to hit 110ppm (base 40) = 150 total ppm. Will be giving a dose of cal-mag once per week also.
I forgot to mention my medium is just 70% coco 30% perlite, I didn't bother with the vermiculite this time as I think it perpetuated alot of my stressing about over watering early on and I'm not entirely sure whether it stores potassium, magnesium, calcium and phosphorus for the roots to use later or if its steals them so the roots can't absorb them. I've not found a clear answer for that one, I'd think it would be the former. Bought a nice new 1.2m tall tower fan too.

Made some cookies today! About 20mg each as a tester and no joke they are indistinguishable from domino's cookies, absolutely delicious! Anyone wants the recipe its per 10 ounce of butter at 47g per cookie and I got 40 cookies.

I used 10oz ghee butter at room temperature.
1&1/4 cup white sugar
1&1/4 cup light brown sugar
Blend by folding and squashing the mix till its thick and fully mixed.
Add 2 eggs at room temperature
2&1/2 tea-spoon vanilla
Blend by folding and squashing again.
Get a siv and add
3 cups all purpose flour
2&1/2 table-spoons corn starch
1&1/2 tea-spoon baking soda
1 tea-spoon of salt
Mix the same as before
Add 400g of dark chocolate chips can also add pecans if that's your thing.

Day 2
Same as yesterday adjusted to 124ppm
Light still set at 160

 

[Angrytomato]

Day 3
Same adjusted to 140ppm

 

[Angrytomato]

Day 4
Ppm still set at 140 and the ppfd is set between 180-210.
Orange punch still hasn't popped! Thought it had crack the shell the other day when I went digging but it must of been something else I saw that looked like a root tail. I got it sitting in a wet paper in the dark on top of my light in a last ditch effort to crack it open. The others are looking good tho! They look way taller than my last lot after 4 days. Gonna cover the top soil in clay pebbles in a few days too! Heard it helps with pest control and it doesn't disturb the soil when feeding.

 

[Angrytomato]

Day 5
Same as before nutes adjusted to 150ppm. Orange Punch still not cracked! Gonna give it till Friday then I gotta give up I think.

 

[Angrytomato]

Day 6
Same adjusted to 160ppm
Ppfd set between 190 around the outer plants and 220 in the center.

 

[Angrytomato]

Day 7
Nutes adjusted to 170 ppm! Gonna up it to 20 ppm per day! Need to get it to 300ppm (give or take 30 ish) in the next 5 days or so. The one in the center in the 1gallon is alot taller than the rest! Not sure if that becasue of the smaller container or because the light is 30ppfd higher than the other plants. The orange still hasn't popped so imma give up on it! R.I.P little one haha.

 

[Angrytomato]

[Angrytomato]

Raised the light 3in and turded it upto 25% ppfd @210-250
