Day 1
I picked the biggest fattest seed and soaked it in water as per CKS instructions

Day 4
Nice tap root transplanted to organic dirt. Watered by using my dugout water ph corrected to 6.6 with a squeeze of an organic lemon.

Day 5
The little bugger has already grown 1/2 inch and has some nice purple color to it. Misted with PH corrected water.

Day 6
This seed has taken off. Its about an inch long maybe longer and appears to be a tri leaf! Misted with PH corrected water.

Check this one out(3rd GROW A-Dam Indica Auto Flower DIY-(Flood & Drain, 420w CFL Grow) Afghan x Amsterdam"Flowering" HARVEST!). Its one of my old grows the one I have as my profile picture, I have a tri-leaf in that one and I never though I would see that again until now.

Day 16
Added a fan on a timer set for 1 hour on 1 hour off all through the 18 hours of light on. it stays off at night. Temp fluctuates between 24 and 27 degrees Celsius. I try and run the humidifier for 3 hours a day when I am here and able to.

Day 17
Got Espoma Plant tone in 5-3-3 Added 3 tsp to the pot on the outside edge of the pot and watered thoroughly.

Day 18
The plant looks strong and healthy. Day 4 of Veg and the stalk has doubled in size in 4 days.

The light is throwing off the color. They're actually green lol.

 

[CBMedzNewb]

Very cool. I'm trying the CBDream as well but you got the 1up on me with your Tri-Leaf Good luck.

 

[Spydr]

Day 19
Seem to be getting a light burn and/or Boron deficiency, Moved the light up. Going to have to get a humidifier and get it over 40%

Day 20
Finally purchased a good humidifier. Holds 6 gallons of water. Misted the plants try and keep the water in the air.

Day 21
Leaves are going back to green from the slight brownish color. There is a little burn damage on the Leaf tips of the new leaves.

Day 22
Day 9 of veg. Just keeping an eye on the humidity. Have 2 humidifiers going. Up to 56% now.

 

[CMJJMC2000]

Looks happy and healthy!

Day 24
Bought reflector roll and added it in to get more light to the smaller leaves.

Day 26
I have overwatered all my plants I had to transplant them to get as much soggy soil out and get dry dirt in. I first scrapped off the top 3 inches of wet and replaced with dry dirt. Then I decided if the top is wet the bottom must be too. When I cut the bottom out of the first pot, it was drowning (I have another grow going at the same time as this one). I tried to get as much soggy soil out as possible and into dry dirt. Here are some pics. I drilled a bunch of holes in the bottom of the pails so the water drains better. The 3 gallon pots only had a hole in each corner and the water logged soil had nowhere to drain. I am putting this up so other noob's and first time growers such as myself know, drill holes in the bottom of your pots.

Poor thing has taken a beating. I hope she lives!!

Day 27
Well good news. She perked right back up. Looks happy and healthy again

 

[Stinky Snid]

Thanks for posting that about the drain holes... Honestly, you can never have enough. If you think you've drilled enough drill 420 more... Lol. That's what I was told once.
This is Very important not only for drying the soil better and air pruning roots (to an extent) but for the run off to evacuate is essential to keeping healthy roots.

KiG cheers

 

[Spydr]

Thanks Snid. I got a host of problems now from that. I guess time will tell how they turn out. Pretty sure drowning my plants gave me a nitrogen lockout. However the 4 way probe is on its way! Should know by Friday what needs to be done.

 

[Stinky Snid]

Those 4 in 1 meters a good grow tools. It will be easier for you and better for them. Good for you on that pickup. she's still very young, lots of time to rebound.

KiG cheers

 

[Stoney Roads]

Looks good. I'll be around for the ride. I had a crop king White Widow that had the 3 leafs like yours cbd

 

[Spydr]

Pretty awesome went to the post office today to see if my seeds were in and low and behold, a key. For a parcel mail box containing my parcel. Wanna guess the number on the key? Yup, 420.

Day 28.
Well after 5 days of worry and nutrient burn and overwatering and a flush and a transplant. This girl is coming back to life. Got some new leaves coming out and another set on the way. I am so happy that she survived, on with the show.
