Blueberry Muffin in 4x4
June 2025 Start
3 Blueberry Muffin from seed (feminized). Using the AC Infinity 4x4 pro grow kit: Light - Ionframe EVO6 LED 500W Fan - Cloudline Pro 6” Controller - 69 Pro Grow medium is soil. I’m going to use the Build-a-Soil method to see how it goes. It seems to be hot right now and I’m curious. Starting seeds in cups with Build-a-Soil lite mix and plan to transplant to 15gal grassroots living soil containers with Build-a-Soil 3.0.

First watering since transplant. Pics are early morning before watering and then later in the evening. They were thirsty! I rotated the positions of the plants counter clockwise between pictures. Moisture sensors were reading 26%. It will take some time to figure out how accurate the sensors are.

2 days after transplanting, looking good. I got Ecowitt soil moisture sensors for to help with watering.

First day after transplanting. Pics are before I chopped up the straw mulch into smaller pieces so that it would be easier to get even coverage. It was a pain in the balls but I think it was worth it. Now that the plants are transplanted and closer to the light I took new PAR and DLI readings: PAR: 325 DLI: 21 These are in the recommended range for this stage so I’ll keep it here for now. I’ll increase the light power level over time as the growth starts to pick up.

Transplanted into 15gal fabric pots. I’m following the build-a-soil classic method m: BaS 3.0 soil, layer of craft blend (dry additives), layer of compost, cover crop seed (mainly clover) and final layer of straw mulch. Not sure if I added too much straw mulch but I think it’s fine. I just need to make sure the cover crop can make it through.

There’s a bit of yellowing on each of them. Need to figure out if this is a deficiency and address it asap before it gets out of hand. Watered for the first time with cal/mag at pH 6.4. Soil wasn’t bone dry but dry enough for a watering.

xxbabytoe293 Had the yellow at first usually went away after a week
Anglerfish Thanks, that puts my mind at ease. They’ve been looking good so far and I was scared seeing that suddenly.

Now that it’s been a week I’m marking this as the end of the seedling phase and the first day of veg. Taking off humidity domes today as they are starting to touch the sides and I don’t want them to get too wet. The tent is plenty humid.

combatmedic81 No humidity domes over them? I know your at 73% but they seem to develop better with them
snawderb Thanks for the tip, I’ll put them back on and see how they respond. I’ve seen conflicting info about how soon to take the domes off. I can drop the humidity a bit so that I don’t risk getting them too wet with the domes back on.
combatmedic81 I usually drop mine about day 10 or so

All three have broken soil. Removed humidity bags. Started measuring PAR and DLI using Photone app. Messed around with light height and power level until settling on this: Light power - 50% Light distance - 59” PAR - 290 DLI (24hr) - 24.4 DLI (18hr) - 18.6 Keeping light at 50% instead of lower to keep heat close to 80F. Currently running lights 24hr but will switch to 18hr soon. I’m worried about it getting too cold during lights off since this is in the basement where it’s cold even in summer.

Started the seeds in paper towels and saw taproots in 24hrs. Put them into these small cups that we had around, not sure the volume. Covered cups with ziplock bags to keep humidity high until they break through soil.
