Well im harvesting it today , cleaning the container and starting a new one, but im wondering if I should just use the original thats been in my fridge that looks lighter green or this darker almost yellow one.....
If it has started going downhill, I would not use it to start a new culture, but feed it to system. Use your refrigerated culture to start new culture. Consider adding more fertilizer next time.
and add 5/6 ml of F2. My culture is deep, dark emerald green and lasts for months.
Doesn’t look bad but both cultures look a bit light. As Subsea said make sure you are adding enough F2. I make mine in a similar sized container with spigot made for drinks
Got mine from an R2R member Eldredge few years back. Been growing my own ever since.
IMO experience it doesn’t need a ton of light. As long as it got some ambient light for 5 days it should be fine. I use a 40 watt incandescent bulb on a timer for 10 hrs/day.
What strain is that? Nanno or Tetra?
That's definitely too light for 12 days. Mine looks darker than that when I harvest and restart my cultures.
Well it spent 5 days in complete darkness before I got new lights and I wasn't "allowed" to bring it by any windows lol so we will see if it gets nice and dark this time or if the whole thing crashed.
I missed this aspect. I would throw more fertilizer in it and give it some time then.
