AlienOG cuts x3 got 1gal fabrics for vag. And GG4 x1 solo'd up in the freshly cleaned 4x4
The new medium? ... I was supposed to head to the hydro shop on Saturday after work for supplies and VermiCompost (or Roots Organics if they're out) potting soil. But I spaced and started heading straight home cause I was trying to hurry up and get to the house to finish watching the fights.
So I'm like 'Fuck, I got shit that has to get transplanted TONIGHT!' Been putting off for too long and I need to transplant asap. So, fuck it, I'll stop by the nursery then that's on the way home, they'll have something.
So I get there, do a quick scan of what they had out, grabbed some EB Stone potting soil... They're a decent respectable company. Not what I was looking for, but it should do, right?...so I pay for it and dip out. I typically spend my time and go over all the ingredients when they don't have what I'm looking for specifically. But, I was in a hurry.
Fast forward to after the fights. Alright, time to do work, right! I go and cut open the bag...? faq!! First thing I noticed is that there is absolutely nothing used for aeration! No perlite, no pumice, no rice hulls, no lava rock, zilch!! WTF! Well, good thing I just bought this big ass bag of perlite (poor quality at that) so, whatever, I'll make do.
I go to grab a handful to throw it in a bucket for mixing. I physically felt radiant heat coming off the medium... It's hot ? damnit...I could smell the not so fully composted chicken manure that's in the mix in the car on the ride home. But I had no other choice but to proceed. I cut it hard with perlite cause I'm big on aeration, gotta have it or the roots will suffocate around here.
So, anyway, I hope the new cuttings can/will survive this lil ordeal. GG4 x2 more got solo's up last night and 1/2 didn't look so great this morning. But, lights just came back on and the 1 that was struggling looks a bit better so?
Put the dome in the tent and sealed it up to try to keep things more consistent til I see some SourD roots.
