SOIL New Grow

[Wayzee]

Been waiting at the window all morning 🙏🏾

Starting 3 of these girls today. I'll try and take pics and update the grow along the way.
Please add any advice ( or criticism) as I'm always looking to improve my gardening abilities and most importantly the end result.

Warmed up rainwater in microwave now to soak seeds overnight.

hey, what's up, where'd you get the beans from if you don't mind me askin'. i'm looking for a new vendor

[Wayzee]

Sacred seeds. I messed up the first lot from this site so not sure on how their genetics are but they are a gnarly looking seed.
In the past I was getting them from the u.s but got sick of customs taking them.

Careful with the heat during germination and seedling stage.Soil born pathogens increase with temperature. 70-75 is the safe spot. If your heat may has a setting use the lowest one. I've cooked too many beans on them damn things and stopped using them. Blue dream is a good strain. It originated in California , 72-77 temps with light constant variable winds.

Thanks man, I did think a few weeks ago when I was trying to pop a few random bag seeds that I may have cooked a couple once in the paper towel, the heat mat is holding the water at 25c = 77f overnight and today once these 3 are in the paper towel I'll just them in a high position in the lounge room where they will stay at around 21c = 70f until they ready to go into pods then into grow room... ??

PS I'm in Australia so it's starting to get cold especially where I live it's been below (70) for the last week and the nights have been getting down to ( 42) . Heaters on, = electricity bill 😱😩

Just courious but why do you post the same thing twice? You must have had childeren lol

[dirtymike]

Don't know wtf is up with the double post crap lately???

[Wayzee]

Ha not sure either,. I forgot to ask, how will I know if I have soil born pathogens?

[Allenpro]

Say it again Uh Huh

[dirtymike]

The "chances" of soil born pathogens increase. You want know. The chance is still there. It's like juggling with hand grenades, do you want to, hell yeah but should you. Probably not. PAZ

[Wayzee]

Haha ok. ( This is where I think using different medium or going back to DWC )
But nah,
I do think I need to change a couple of things to lower the chances, firstly no more transplanting in or keeping spare soil laying around in grow room! Secondly before I put these girls in room I'm gonna give it a good clean out, mop the floor and walls with bleach mixture.... ?

24hrs later, got not paper towel so bog roll it is. Used water that was in cup to wet it then held plate on its side until there was no run off.

[dirtymike]

Wait for the bean to split and tap root to show. Keep it dark and slightly warm. Dig that groovy plate Aussie

[dirtymike]

I'll wait on this one for another day. I like them to be a bit longer. Helmet head is next. I hate that crap.
