Just started a Blimburn Chemdog Fem'd seed, sprouted about 3 days ago. Built a 2gal fog bucket today and moved her to the new home. Growing indoors under 600w LED @ 30% power. General Hydro Flora 3-part series nutes, Super Thrive, and hydrogen peroxide. 24hr light cycle, and 30 min. on/off with the ultrasonic fogger. Hoping to clone and keep a rotating harvest. Keeping the light right on it to keep stretch to a minimum. Love to hear feedback or answer any questions.
Sure! I tried to include this for the initial post but it wouldn't load off my phone. It's super thick and foggy in there.
It is. It's a pretty standard ultrasonic fogger for ponds or decorative water elements, but with no LEDs. It came with a little float setup and sits right on top of the water. I'm trying to dial in the feeding cycle. So far I've cut back from every 30 minutes to 30 minutes on, 2.5 hours off. I still feel like that's too much. I'm going with a very light nutrient concentration, but I don't want to burn, and as it's a seedling, I may half the strength again tonight. Just took my first measurements, pH: 5.9, TDS: 184ppm, EC: .93, temp ranging from 75.2-69.6F. I filled the bucket with spring water from my cooler, but I picked up some distilled tonight and will probably refill the tank later.

So the last root photo was taken approximately 48 hours ago. I did add a little rooting hormone last night, and root growth has been explosive! This is now: 20231119_220026 by bombsaway posted Nov 20, 2023 at 5:46 AM
20231122_135704 by bombsaway posted Nov 22, 2023 at 10:57 PM Moved her to a 4 gallon bucket 2 days ago and refilled the res with fresh nutes. Good growth so far, a little bit of leaf edge rippling and some brown spots on the leaves. I'm guessing overfeeding. PPMs are still low, so I adjusted the feeding cycle from 8x/day to 4x/day, and may cut it down to 3x/day. Also added some fresh water to the res. Root growth has continued to be incredibly fast.
