2nd grow log
alright..
replaced the 3 weaker bulbs with 20w warm cfls.
original output = 78w
current output = 102w
5 kids out the dirt now, last one hasn't surfaced yet.
The two late bloomers seem to have some stress. Healthy green, but the two leaves at the 1st node are curled into a crescent shape. As well, their sizes are MUCH smaller compared to the other 3. Seeds taken from mids, so I'm expecting a couple "autistic" growths.
#7 hasn't surfaced yet either. I was late in sticking this one in the dirt, the white hairs on the half inch root were already a little visible, so I'm expecting this one to have some trouble readapting.
The seeds were germinated in a brown paper towel, to give a little history behind it.
The other 3 however are responding positively. With the help of the CFLs there was little to no change in the length of the stems on the older 2 that were stretching. Leaves are growing well, all healthy green. The 3rd one REALLY played catch-up, I was impressed at how fast this one grew to the others' sizes in a day. This one also seemed to have leveled off, the 3 seem to be comfortable with their distance. Originally I had the kids covered under plastic wrap to shield off intensity and maintain a moist environment. I didn't want the soil drying out too fast. They've all managed to reach their plastic ceiling, so i had to cut slits into the plastic for them to grow out.
Pictures are provided. Still working on my budget so I can manage a better operation. I'm drawing up schematics for a self sufficient grow bin, allthewhile implimenting ideas i've learned from you guys over the years!
