The lighter colored soil in the center is some rooting soil inoculated with mycorrhizae to welcome the new roots to the microbial world when they pop through.
also added some Gaia Green Bloom about a inch from the bottom of the pot. My thoughts are the roots should grow into that area around bloom time. Not sure If i will still have to top dress later on.. we'll see.. Kinda like planning for college even though the girls are not born yet lol.. oh well like I said.. A'm purty darned excited!
Another evasive surgery tonight. I went in to check on the girls before bed. Temp and humidity appeared ok, but when I went to check the pellets for moisture I noticed green leaves inside but tap root facing up.
Flipped her over but destroyed the cube while sweeping away coco to get to the sprout.. placed the loose coco in place of the pellet and tucked the sprout back to bed.
I was gentle...I just hope gentle enough.
In order to have the leaves facing up the tap root is kind of sideways. But I didn’t dare try and bend anything.
