Lol. So yes. I quitted hydro . I was so close to success I think but during my last couple of tries I decided I was done with being stressed out without any success and dove right into a coco coir grow. The baby is a beaut. Name is Venus and she’s a
Set up:
- 60%Coco Coir 40%Perlite
- Coco Coir buffered with GH calmag and ph’ed water
Highlights on what I did to get started:
- I germinated my seed in the coco coir mixture and a solo cup with drainage.
- Once sprouted, placed under light.
- Fertigated seedling twice a day until I was up to 1000+ EC, then dropped down to once a day for no particular reason lol. Just because I already reached the goal EC and the baby was still happy. I’d like to mention the green algae that grows on the top because the coco is wet and the light is hitting it. That’s normal. If you hate seeing it, like I did, I would scoop it out and just replaced more coco mix if i removes too much. Otherwise, once the canopy covers the coco, the algae quits growing.
- Transplanted seedling once the baby canopied the solo cup but ultimately becauSe I saw roots starting to grow out the drainage holes.
- Once in Octopot, the solution for my res is:
Silica
CalMag(5mg/gal)
Maxigro(.5tsp/gal)
Hydroguard
Sensizym
Aimed for 800ppm then later ended up around 900-1000 high feed cause why not
anyway pics now!
