Hello and welcome,
First off i would like to give a big shout out to Dutch Passion Tony for sending me these test seeds free of charge.
Il be starting this seedling under one of Grow Northern's HS1 LED with three extra units to be added later.
The seedling, after propagation will be transplanted into the 55 Litre Alien Pro Single Bucket system.
To avoid any root diseases and to add an organic super boost to the regime, a Beneficial Tea will be brewed weekly using ingredients from The Nutrient Company.

Strain Information :



New variety! Available from 1st January 2016!

Think Big® is a new high performance AutoFem based on the legendary Think Different genetics. Think Big® was created after a small number of special XXL Think Different plants were selected from hundreds of plants grown from seed and used as the genetic basis for Think Big®.

Think Big® can grow taller (1.5m+) and bigger than Think Different AutoFem and takes a couple of weeks longer to finish. The two to three extra weeks that Think Big® needs to finish are responsible for the amazing big yields she offers when treated with love. Resin coverage is often sensational, the cannabis is strong and numbing with a soaring sativa high. The taste has hints of citrus, lemon and incense. Harvest time is typically 13-14 weeks after germination and yields both indoors and outdoors have XXL potential. Exceptional autoflowering genetics have just been pushed to the next level!

Hey nice first post.

How do you plan on running the bennies, how often will you add and what amounts.

I see also Canna Zyme listed, whats your feeding routine.

Ill be chimming in throughout this, all the best and it would be cool if you can log as much detail as possible. Brewing tea, pics of roots etc.

The Beginning ​

The Think Big Seed packet was left out for a few hours to make sure the seeds were at the Environment temperature before the plunge.



Now its time for inspection to make sure each seed is healthy.
I have chosen two seeds just encase something goes wrong so I have one for back up.



After carefully selecting two of the best seeds it was then time to drop them into a glass of temperate water.



Nutrient Solution:
  • PH: 6.6
  • EC: 0.3 ( Back-round EC)
  • Temp: 19 C

Soaking & Sowing

To start things off the root riot cubes were soaked in a solution of bubbled temperate water and Canna's Rhizotonic.
The cubes soaked for 12 hours with a low EC and PH'd correctly.




The two root riot cubes were then gently squeezed to rid them of excess water and placed into a rooting tray.
The rooting tray was then placed inside the bottom of the propagator awaiting the seed.



Both seeds dropped and sank to the bottom of the glass in less than 12 hours after being soaked.



The seeds were carefully removed from the water and let to be aired for a few minutes.



After a few minutes the seeds were then ready to be placed into the root it cubes.
Using a tweezers the seeds were carefully placed into the holes in the cubes.



To cover the seed and to allow it to germinate in full darkness. The corner of the root it cube were simply torn off and used to cover the hole.



The lid was then placed on the propagator and set to the correct Environmental temperature and conditions.




Nutrient Solution:
  • PH: 5.8
  • EC: 0.3 ( Back-round EC)
  • Temp: 19-20 C

Environment:
  • Lights On: 24-25 C
  • Lights OFF: 20-21 C
  • RH%: 70-80%

Looking forward to hearing about the finished product. Think Different is a beast of a strain already. I wonder if Think Big is just one of the 100 day phenos further stabilized.

Week: 1 - Day:​

Almost four days after germination both seedlings emerged from their casing just fine. Once the seedlings are 24 hours old this is considered day 1 for my own documentation.



Both seedling are looking perfectly healthy as of yet but a little on the leggy side. They are being misted once a day with plain water set to the right environmental conditions.



Nutrient Solution:
  • PH: 5.8
  • EC: 0.3 ( Back-round EC)
  • Temp: 19-20 C

Environment:
  • Lights On: 24-25 C
  • Lights OFF: 20-21 C
  • RH%: 60-70%
