Get Off Of My Cloud by The Rolling Stones, We're An American Band by Grand Funk Railroad. Fed worm tea, connected AutoPot to 55 gal water tank, topped Space Oddity for the second and final time. Had minor leak when hooking up water lines. At the rate they’re growing I’ll likely set to flower in the next week or two.

Radar Love by Golden Earring , Rollin' and Tumblin' by Jeff Beck. Translated to final pots, Space Oddity identified as female, all the rest appear to be males. I hope I’m wrong.

Little Bit Of Sympathy by Robin Trower Band, Darkness, Darkness by The Youngbloods. Appropriate update for today, 420 has been good. In this past week; adjusted light height twice, replaced second 4” input fan with AC 6”, fed worm tea, fed cal-mag, silica, kelp. I should be able to identify plant sex soon and then will transplant to final AutoPot system, likely in this coming week.

In this past week; set lights to W75, B75, R45 - will set to full veg this coming week, feed worm tea the other night and as always the results are amazing, Wild Thing finally shed its seed shell, it is only showing one cotyledon which might explain its difficulty shedding its shell. The Joker by Steve Miller Band, I'm Your Captain (Closer to Home) by Grand Funk Railroad.

Three more popped since last week, looking at 7 out of the 8 I had originally hoped for. I can handle up to five females in the ten. One runt still has to shuck its shell, looking close. Deployed AC humidifier, amazing as I had no idea this kind of stuff was out there. Guess it’s been a while since I looked. Right Place Wrong Time by Dr. John, Gold On the Ceiling by The Black Keys.

A fifth popped, happy for a fifth tree. I’ve been checking out the AC Infinity 6” fan with controller, super cool and works great at automating temperature control. I’ll be adding another for intake and also adding the humidifier. This simple setup will do a great job at automating what I was trying to do manually. Free Bird by Lynyrd Skynyrd.

cannawubdub I would space those pots out a little bit more , the way they are in there so tightly packed it’s gonna stay wet for to long let it dry out a little faster add a small fan too if you can!

Two seeds planted as backups, looks like I’ll be lucky to have 6 plants… not optimal but it is what it is. I believe the 4 that didn’t make it were because they dried out too much while I was gone, that’s on me and not the seeds. Installed new 6” exhaust system as the old 4” wasn’t able to keep up with the new light. In This Place by Robin Trower, Dream On by Aerosmith.
