Day 23: (Vegetative)

I’m a little late to the party but I’m on day 23 since I put the seedlings in the mix. I have 3 total to start.

I don’t know if I should be doing this, but I don’t adjust the PPM or EC of the water, only PH level.

One plant isn’t looking so hot (3rd pic) and I think the marks on the leaves might be nute burn and the curling is lack of water? They missed at least a whole day cause I was out of town recently and I started the nutrient feeding schedule day 7 I think. In the middle pic, you can see a wilt on the tiny first leaf, I’m pretty sure that was light burn. I had the fixture probably about 20” from the sprout at first and realized real quick that was a mistake.

Equipment:
• 5x5x6.5 Viparspectra grow tent
• AC Infinity Cloudline T6 in-line duct fan & 6” carbon filter (same brand)
• Apelila 3400w LED grow light with veg & bloom switch (half the light board already burned out a couple days ago & found out later the actual power is 320w if that matters? Knockoff of a knockoff on Amazon I later discovered, researching a better brand)
• Dehumidifier, timer for light & hygrometer
• 1L air pots to start

Medium:
• Coco/Perlite/Worm Castings mix about 60/30/10

Watering:
• Every 24 hours
• PH between 5.8-5.9 after all nutes are mixed
• 1gal water/1.9ml CalMag/4.7ml Micro (add to water first)/5.7ml Gro/2.8ml Bloom/3tsp molasses/1ml RapidGrow

Temp & Humidity:
• 75-85° F/60% RH

Light:
• High up about 5'
• 18 hours on/6 hours off

Day 26: (Vegetative)

I think I’m gunna hold off on the transplanting for a bit. I watched this vid below and my leaves aren’t quite as macho as his yet

❓Not sure if it matters, but I noticed the yellowing on the first sprout leaves have gotten darker over the last few days.. That’s not like a warning sign or something I should watch out for, is it? The leaves look fine so I’m not so worried about it.

I might update the journal every other day or so depending on how visible the progress is so I don’t feel like I’m spamming the thread lol. Same watering schedule and nutes until Saturday. Then from what I’ve read, it’ll be the start of transition

Two things :oops: And I’ll post this in another thread related to coco growing. I noticed the first smaller sprout leaves on all 3 are dying. Then on a couple of them, there’s some small marks on the stalks that look like gashes maybe? The 1st one in the collage has it worse or more pronounced than the 2nd. I was a little late on feeding a couple days ago, maybe have gone 36-48 hours tops without water. And I haven’t transplanted them yet but most likely will tomorrow, there was one little root hanging out of the bottom of one. Oh and I don’t adjust the PPM or EC range. Wondering if I should start?

Day 37:
I just transplanted these into 2.4 gallon air pots. The 2nd plants lower leaves are looking kinda sad but will probably fertigate twice a day for a bit.

I think I’m at the stage to start low stress training, I’ll probably do that by the next post.
