    Wink Grow diary

    Hi All

    Thought I'd share my grow with everyone here, I'm sure I've got a few things spectacularly wrong but hopefully with a few pointers off people here I can get these first plants to harvest and gain some knowledge on the way

    So....germinated 7 seeds in paper towel for 2 days, all popped and had a good 1 inch tap root
    These went into rock wool cubes and then into 15l autopots filled with 60/40 coco/clay pebbles
    I've got them in my tent under the light on its lowest setting (400w)

    I'm kinda hoping for the best at this point! While also resisting the urge to look at them 50 times a night!!
    I'm hand watering them once a day until I can turn the system on, presumably this will take a week or so

    Hopefully my next post update won't be "they all died!"😝

    My set up looks like this

    Budbox pro 1.5x1.5x2
    Gavita 750 de
    5" extraction fan with carbon filter vented outside
    Passive air intake
    Tower fan inside
    7x 15L autopots 45L reservoir
    Dutch pro hydrococo grow
    Silver bullet roots

    Any help, info, much appreciated

    Thanks

    Checked again this morning, looks like five are doing ok but the other two haven't changed since I planted them
    Do you think that's it for them or should I wait a few more days?
    Also I'm feeding them once a day in the morning with dutchpro hydrococo grow, about a litre between 7 pots, do they need anything else at this stage?

    Thanks

    Hope they all went good in the future. Just don't forget to monitor them. Also I saw on other topics that they post pictures of their grow here. Maybe you can do that so the experts here will have a comment or feedback on your progress. Good luck to you dude.

    good luck matey

    all they will need water and canna rhizotonic ( root stimulant - probs be that silver bullet stuff never used or heard of that) PH set to 5.8

    after a week they shud need a very low feed. and will only need feed from the top for now aswel till there plenty roots down

    am not fan of coco for auto pots, but it does kinda work like prefer run to waste on coco feeding from the top as you push out all the salts every time you feed keepin the media fresh but thats my own preference.

    you got your PH an EC meters?
    PH up and Down?
    how temps and RH?

    Room temp is 73
    Humidity is 71
    That's with the extractor on but osc fan off
    No ph or ec meter, I know it's important but it'll have to wait till payday

    you UK? if so stick to degrees Celsius mon makes it easier.

    you will have issues 100% if you do not get at least a PH pen asap. i wouldnt have even started without one mukka.

    Ok I'll pick one up tomorrow, so if I add my nutes to water just check ph before I feed plants and if it's in range I'm good?

    Thanks for the advice, genuinely appreciate it
    I'll try and post pics when my post count gets up
