Decided to run my own solo cup challenge , yes I’m so bored with this social distancing but keep up a happy disposition about it all. anyway I’ve set up 8 cups holes punched in bottoms filled with coco perlite 30/70 mix have washed out medium with ph correct water which has been standing over night , testing this morning it was 6.4 ph and 231 ppm , adjusting the ph down to 5.8 ph ppm still around 200 mark , let the cups drain till later today where I popped in my seeds 2x NL# 1 x will76 var One Drop seed 2020, 2 x NL#1 x Will76 ,2 x pollies purp x Will76 , 2 x Farmers bag seed x will76 , 2x bag seed unknown origin kept in deep freezer for years.

i got new beans in soil myself brother , great minds think alike. i will offer some photos when i get a chance. i have some new seedlings as well. granddaddy purp, northern lights, pineapple chunk, dr. grindspoon. (finally, ok so i scored 3 of these after a hard search. i put one to soil in a solo cup. later that day i was repotting and needed a handful of soil and saw the cup and dumped in the side of a 7gal bag! next i dropped one in some PH water to deal with later. later came and the glass jar was empty? since i'm always stoned i assume i dumped it in my tea?) now i got one on its way! i also dropped some blue dream and sour d. so i'm in !

i'm running a much as i can as i plan to start a microclone bank. some shit called tissueponics. sounds more complicated than it is. the point is to store clones in sterile test tubes. thus favorite strains need not be a mother. i'm also looking at it for transporting, way easier to hand a buddy a small test tube and have em root it?

Popped my head in the grow shed to check on the solo cup challenge and I was a pit shocked I for to turn over the timer to 18/6 they have been on cutting time 24/7 a wee pit of light over kill I’m running a simple 2 tube t5 purple spec a really great little light kit , any way have moved the cups to the nursery level which is just a steel grate and a covered timber shelf and the skylight above them is giving off nice defused light temp in the shed while #1 tend is at 18/6 and #2 @ 11/13 and the cutting tent is 18/6 now out temps on the island vary from day to day sometimes hr by hr so today it’s over cast and 17deg in the grow shed with all the shit going down it’s a nice 20 degrees so I’m sure the solo seedlings as in calling then should stay warm enough . Here’s a few pics and yes even myself a well seasoned grower can stuff up ones in a while .... as we say in OZ “she be right mate “ ....
