Clementine Slush #4: She is lagging behind the rest of the 5-gallon gals and is the weakest in the tent. Hopefully she will pick up post- transplant, but weak doesn't mean she won't be beautiful.
Nothing experimental with this one though, we will just start some LST heading into week 6 and her 5-gallon vegetation.
Tent-Wide Updates: Transplant Week!
I've been looking forward to this week since the start of the grow. Transplant week always brings a bit of stress, but also brings a beautiful final tent product, where each plant is in their final home.
4 of the plants will be in 5 gallon Geopots, and 1 will be in a 3.9 gallon Geopot. They will all feed from the same reservoir once our roots are established, but with those 5 gallons pots, it will be a few weeks minimum before we are established enough to flip to flower.
For my coco mix, we are keeping the same ratio of 70/30, and will do a Xtreme Mykos sprinkle in each root hole and on each root bundle.
However, I did something new for this transplant: I incorporated Stash Base directly into some mixed coco, and strategically placed that enhanced coco around the root balls, around 1 inch think, and along the top third of each pot. I ended up mixing around 4 gallons of coco/perlite and I used around 12 tsp of Stash Base. My goal is to provide the areas where initial vegetation root expansion some extra Stash boost, and I am excited to see how this plant works as my first introduction of Stash in the grow.
For my watering and pre-moistening mix, I will use the following recipe:
1 Gallon RO water
6 ml Ventana Plant Science Support
2 ml Ventana Plant Science Grow
.5 ml Ventana Plant Science Structure
1 ml Mammoth P Active Microbes for watering in
For each plant, I will water in around 1 liter where the root ball meets the new coco, with a bit of water (maybe 250 ml) on the root ball area itself.
Once transplanted, I will adjust to 300 PPFD and let everything settle down until I start training.
Each transplant went well and let's hope we continue with a beautiful veg!
