Right around 36hrs later and 7 of 9 seeds have a tail. Im going to wait until this evening then all 9 will get planted. Hopefully thos other 2 crack open for my peace of mind.
how is your nitrogen after stretch? its one of the biggest reasons for production of leafsI HATE TRIMMING!!! I have to get my shit together and stop growing these larfy plants. I need donkey dicks with no leaves!
I think the N in the floranova bloom is too high but each plant had its own issue too. The extra N, plant issues, and the heavy defol all had a hand in it. The heavy defol I do increases cytokinins and tells the plant to produce more leaves. I need to find the balance and get my pruning dialed in. The extra N in the bloom will be fixed before the next hydro grow. The mentioned plant issues are actually me issues and I just have to do better.how is your nitrogen after stretch? its one of the biggest reasons for production of leafs
I think the small one looks good enough. Doesn't seem like it got much damage.
Got some rock wool to increase my germination rate, hadn't a chance to try them out..Checked on the seedlings. Everyone is okay at the moment. Strawberry pie has opened and can see leaves now. Gold glue hasn't changed much which is kinda good. She hasn't started declining in health yet. Maybe she makes it and is a runt but I'd be okay with that considering.
They all got mykos as I was planting and today I hit each cube with 40 ml of a weak recharge mix. Trying to get those roots going. Once they are growing out the bottom I'll move them into the soil.

Im a believer. I hit them with some recharge for all the beneficials too. Just wanted to give that tap and root system an early boost.Got some rock wool to increase my germination rate, hadn't a chance to try them out..
Is it worth to use Mycorrhiza? and do you soak the seeds before planting in?
This is an impressive post all the way around LOL! Are those the roots going into the line!?The gorilla cookies got a spa day today. Did some thinning and light canopy work.

With the roots in the res I decided doing full changes isnt a bad idea. Had a bit of a clog. I drained the res down until the pump couldnt suck any more which leaves 1-2 quarts maybe. Then I dumped 2-3gal of ro water in and drained it again. I repeated this until the water coming out of the res was clear. Filled the res one last time with some ro water and I used that to flush the cubes, clean the roots, and clean the lid up some. Used the 1/2" drain hose to pump it up to the cubes and flushed them for 10-15 minutes. One last drain and added a fresh batch of nutes at 2.0 ec. I moved the air stone to the middle of the res behind the pump to maybe better distribute oxygen to the roots.

Im getting ready to start some seeds in tiny rockwool cubes. Then im tossing those into a promix like mix in solos! Wish me luck! HahahaDont follow my example of rockwool in soil. Ive been fighting with these kids about water since putting them in the soil. The mbap was completely limp on the ground 2 days ago. Overall the whole batch just arent off to the start I expected.
I left the top of the cubes exposed to air thinking it would help with oxygen. Turns out its wicking the moisture away from the seedlings and allowing it to evaporate. So make sure to fully bury the cubes when putting them in soil
Yeah roots and some plant matter that fell in the res at some point. It was still flowing but was noticeable less volume.Are those the roots going into the line!?
