Day 3 Progress

Day 3. Two days after seeding. The results as seen below.

Right side is KK and RA on the
left. 

The KK seeds have gnown bigger. Likely from absorbing water. The first sprout. Wonder how will the rest do.

RA sprouts. Lots of root hairs seen. Interesting to see the red cotelydons. Quite beautiful.

And lastly the BC. Tiny sprouts
appearing too.

Feeling optimistic at this point. Looking forward to tommorow. 

On the side, I harvested fully the BH and GOL. Dropped in 80mI of H202, to clean the system overnight.

Planning to seed more KK and RA and BC. On leca balls. Aim is to see if there any difference in growth vs sponge.

Tier 2: GR Observed some minor tip burns, but not too many to be of concern for aesthetics. Tier 3: RO The leaves are losing the reddishness. The pace of growth is slower than both the CR and GR. To take note of this when planning for sustainable supplies. Internet sources suggest that maturity is between 45 to 60 days. Tier 4: BH Growing well too. No burn tips. Judging from plant size (diameter and height), growth rate seems to be just a little slower compared to GR and CR.    Data EC1200 - Nice! After adding the 10ml of ABC yesterday together with the 2L of water. Overnight mixing has resulted in a higher ...
