Hello everyone,
Today is day 7 since I've planted my seed into an 18 oz cup of Botanicare coco coir. I have it sitting under a 600W MH air cooled hood at about 24" away from the top of the plant. It was running at 50% (300W) for the first couple of days, then 75% (450W), and I switched it today to 100% (600W). A 6" 440CFM exhaust fan sucks all the hot air from the hood and out the top of the tent. I also have a fan blowing in fresh air from the open flap at the bottom, as well as another fan inside the tent.
Temperature is looking great, it hovers around 77° - 82°F by the plant. Humidity fluctuates between 50 - 60% throughout the day.
Nutrients: I'm currently using Advanced Nutrients Sensi Coco Grow A&B. I actually added 50% of what they recommended for seedlings to my water right after my seed was planted in the cup. (So that's .5ml of nutrients in a 2L reservoir) I watered until runoff and let it sit in the tent. I've been watering with this strength every other day so that the coco can dry out a little to help the plant develop a decent root system.
My questions are... Does my plant look like it's doing well? (I'll provide pictures below) When should I start watering every day, instead of having a wet/dry cycle? When should I up the strength on the
nutrients, and how often? And last but not least.. When should I transplant this cup into a 1 gallon pot, and then into a 4.5 gallon pot?
Thank you all very much for helping me out with this! It's greatly appreciated.
