Hi all,
I had already started a Summer Grow log covering the 5 strains I'm currently running, before news broke of this Newbie Bud Contest. I will still be running that log for anyone interested in following. This log will be following the 4 Goji OG plants by Bodhi Seeds for the summer competition. All 4 of these plants were started from seed and broke ground on 5/31.
This grow is being done in soil, seeds started in BlackGold Seedling Mix. The plants have now been transplanted into larger pots using Roots Organics Greenfields with added perlite, vermiculite and earthworm castings.
Plants are being grown in a 60x60x80 grow tent.
Lighting being used is a HPS/MH switchable balast with 1000w HPS and MH bulbs. Using a air cooled reflector hood.
These are shots of the Goji at just over a week old.
Around day 12 started experiencing some issues with a lot of the seedlings. Some of them wilting and some of them yellowing on lower leaf sets. My initial reaction to their appearance was over-watering or possibly a nute deficiency. There were also some temperature issues from day 9-12, it was too cold in the room, temps in the low 60's sometimes dipping below at night. They were also watered from cold water sitting on the concrete floor. I believe this had caused some of the stress but the plants were still showing the stress. Being that at the time the plants were not even 2 weeks old, I see in no way it being a nutrient issue. The problem ended up being the seedling mix, it was not draining evenly or properly, even with added perlite. I also think the PH from the peat moss was not agreeing with the little seedlings.
These were taken at about 2 weeks all 4 of the Goji. The lighting in these pictures isn't very good but you can see some of the wilting and yellowing.
