12/12 From Seed Experiment - 21 Strains

Day 18 from first preflowers. Everything seems to be ok, blue dream is still very late, but all plants are healthy.
Weather here is quite crazy to be almost in summer. Daytime max 22 celsius, so my settings (lights on on nightime), make temperature is almost the same during the 24 hours. In fact, night temperatures are about 15 celsius and led light increase it to 20/21, no more. I'm just wondering if this situation is anyway acceptable. In july day temperatures should be 28/30 , an same into the growroom, and night 20/21 , 25 into the g.r. I say should, but summer must come...
So i will have temps lower with lights on than with light off. A strange situation....

It is one of the two green cracks. The other is some days late with flowers (it just germinate 3 days latet) and in perfect conditions...
 
You can carefully lift up the plant with the root ball and inspect the roots.

I got three plants each pot... im afraid i could damage the closest one. Next time single pots.. i believed they'd grown much less, just a single cola so i tried with 3 wach 10.5 liters pot.
 
Pots were very light this morning given 1.5 liters water each pot, little more on the suffering one. I changed day/night periods, light from 5'30 am to.5.30 pm. Temps are 23 daytime and 19 nightime. Blue Dream started flowering :). I love my plants, hope they feel it.. sm pics

They know you love them!
New growers usually use too much water and too much food.
It is a weed. It will grow with very little water or food!
At least once during a grow I will let the soil dry until the plant droops.
Food is tricky. The best is worm compost. Perfect every time.

Cheers,
Mo

Well, I'm not exactly a new grower. It's my first 12/12 fs but i've been growing for about 30 years, i'm 58.. guerrilla farming for years, in 1991 i bought an hps 400w and grew indoor for the first time. I had never the right place or enaugh money to spend on it so i used that lamp until few years ago when it dead. Too much heat, too much for electricity bills, btw, i continued to grow a few plants in my garden, autos or std fem, then i bought a cheap led lamp fs 300w. I'd bought weed or hash a very few times. I know about nutes and water and try to minimize them. My soil is good quality topsoil ph 6,5 for 70% and earthworms compost 30%. Give them less than halfdose of biobloom (NPK 2-6-7 if i well remember) by biobizz, one time every 2 watering. Me too let them drop for dry soil once/two times in last two weeks flowering.
Here is forbidden, can't risk anymore, and im now unenployed so i cant buy a better light, air extractors, dehumidificators or cooler.. try to do my best with the few i have to smoke better i can, and free. ;)
I like to share and listen suggestions, that's why im here after casually i read this 12/12 journal :p
 
I am 58 also. I grew my first plant in 1975! Everything was sativa and it was all outdoors.
Here in California it was illegal but everybody did it.
I hope your part of the world opens up to the freedom of cannabis soon.
What do you do for work?
 
Brother :) 1962 great year
Actually unemployed. My company went bankrupt 5 years ago so i jump from a summer work to another each summer season, i live on tuscany's west coast.. i found a regular job wirking on the ferryboat from Leghorn to Capraia island but i had to make some tests (swim, raw, medical) to have the "sailor passport" and covid19 lockdown blocked everything so.i have to wait some months more.. luck my wife has a job. Italy is bs...
 
My first grow.. 1981 after my first (of 15) time in Amsterdam :)
It was skunk, three plants on the forest 1.70 m tall christmas tree shaped... it was a bomb.
