This is my first grow journal, i will try to be as detailed as possible but keep in mind i go by the beat of my own drum and have a couple different projects to juggle which often weigh into my decision making. My nursery is a closet and i have 2, 2.5x2.5 flowering tents for test runs, an off site flowering room i share with a partner and a couple other people i work with/advise in their gardens. Questions and comments are welcome and encouraged so long as they do not take away from the journal
System overview: for seed pops and cloning i have 2 super sprouter t5s. Seeds are popped in a paper towel with fulvic/humic (nectar for the gods zeus juice) and mykos wp. I have a soil mix for seeds: black gold potting soil lightened up with coco coir and extra perlite. This mix gives me a mild soil with good drainage to keep from staying too wet. I clone using rockwool cubes, rootech cloning gel, zeus juice and nectar ph down (phosphoric acid) in a super sprouter humidome with indirect light. This is all done on a shelf in my closet in a 20"x20" area (2 seed trays) My veg area is 2'x3' lit by 10 cree led bulbs in a diy setup. My main soil is promix hp with worm castings and happy frog jump start dry fert. For nutes i use nectar for the gods: medusa, gaia, zeus, herc, athena, demeters, aphrodite, bloom khaos and ph up/down (olympus and hades)
I also innoculate with slf-100, mykos wp, and mammoth p. I have replaced hygea hydration with npk raw yucca and will be replacing athenas aminas with npk raw omina. These are just more ecnomical and dont compromise the integrity of the nutrient program. moving on!
7/22: 6 lemon lotus seeds wet. I color code each strain and give each seed a number. This number will stay with the plant and all cuts from that plant until there is only 1 cut left, my keeper. Lemon lotus gets blue because yellow was taken already! I use an upside down plastic takeout container, keeps them dark and moist and tucks up in my closet nicely. The top shelf stays nice and warm too.
7/24: all seeds had popped within 36 hours but it was 4:00am and i didnt feel like getting all dirty and what not so i planted them the next afternoon.
7/26: all have broken through the soil. This is a shot of my clone/seedling area. 1, 18" and 1, 24" t5 are both mounted underneath the shelf directly over the seed tray in the rear as i prefer clones to get only indirect light. The clone tray is almost always full, if i have no seedlings, i can use the back tray for smaller clones when i put them in dirt.
The closet is on a 18/6 light schedule. Lights are out 8:00am-2:00pm. I propped the seedling tray up about 4" to keep them from stretching but i forgot when i did this.
