First timer chocolope grow

[Stank42O]

Hey guys, pumped to start. Tent just came in and was able to get the system up to the right temperature and humidity and decided to just run it lol. Put seed in soil gave it some water , set lights to 18 and 6 and put a bag on it for extra humidity. I know I should have germinated but I have 4 more beans so let's see what happens.

You picked a good strain. Good luck man

 

[Stank42O]

Thank you, I was looking for something with a good yield and a hearty plant. First time

Nice set up too.

Really struggling to hold ideal Temps and humidity for germination. Fell asleep and woke up to warming humidifier just blinking "002" temp was low and the humidifier was off. Any advise on keeping the germinating seed environment more stable?

Nice set up too.

Thanks dude , as a newbie I'm struggling figuring out the wild environment for germination and its painfull lol

Run the inline fan at the lowest level possible, close all flaps cept 1, and set the humidifier to about 65%

Well it has been a dozen years or so since I grew Chocolope
Who is the breeder on that ?
My initial thought is please lose the baggy
You don’t need “extra humidity “ for seedlings only clones

How long after seed in dirt should I expect to see a sprout or know it didn't work?

These are the seeds i have. From my local smoke shop. You really think it will pop with out a bag on it?. Again first time grower lol.

The seed in cup # one has finally started to sprout and just waiting on cup #2 . Cup one was started on 12/1 and cup 2 on 12/2. Was having humidifier issues for a couple days. Trying to keep the temp and humidity controlled and it's getting better, just alot of fine tuning. Fill you guys in when we know if cup 2 sprouts.

A bag on them can lead to damping off causing them to die
A light breeze and no baggy will make stems stronger

I like the mirror finnish on the humidifier. It classes up the place.

Gotta stay classy hahaha. It's the least expensive one I could find on cyber Monday with heating mist.

If you store RO water ph at 6.5 in gallon jugs closed will the ph change over time? Might be a dumb question just curious tho.

Also newbie here, wait for a more certain answer. I'm testing that myself, and for now, I would say yes. But then, temperature also affects pH.
So, if you read pH in different temperatures, it can give you slightly different pH.
I'm thinking on getting a pH meter with Temperature meter too. Might get better conclusions.

PS: chocolope is one of the best sativas ever! One of my fav

Hey man hope your plants are going well, yea I have a ph meter with temp so I just jugged 1 liter of RO water of corse ill check it again before use but I will let you know also!

So another quick question. I was gone for most of the day and when I came back my air exhaust filter is soaked (the sleeve) I turned my humidifier down and opened a flap and turned a fan on low . Will this dry or do you guys fear it could mold....
