Oh man that sucks you culled the little photo lady, but I understand the reason. I thought you were doing an auto in the Mini Kratky? I think you have already shown that you can do this its just a matter of dialing it all in, and I have a feeling a lot of people are going to follow along in your footsteps. I know I am, and yes get some pics up when the little lady graces us with her presence.
It really sucks taking one this early because it seems like that is the slowest period of growth in a plants life is that first 10-14 days ugggh it has been the longest 7 days every so far but my ladies are finally starting to get a noticable growth each day yaaaaay! Anyway keep it up and sending good germination karma your way!

Yea, I have a hard time culling plants lol, but I'm the type I'd have wall to wall plants if I didn't LOL!
Update:
Growth seems slow still, but she's looking good. I'm modifying the res content though. I've come to the conclusion that the tea alone is not enough. So I got an idea from watching a video of the Strain Hunter's in Jamaica. In one segment, they where shown a grow in a swamp. They grew by building a mound of mud to create a little island. I decided to put about an inch of soil in the bottom so help leach nutrients into the tea. I figure I'm going to have to change the res, but I'm going to see how long I can wait to do the change. As much as I want to see this girl grow well, this is about learning about whether or not, the Kratky Method will work successfully when using organics. I think it will, its just a matter of finding the right formula. And maybe this is not in keeping with Kratky, so it could be the Pop22 method....LOL!
And yes, this may autoflower but, being actually a test plant, I'm not certain it will.

Still lookin good though Pop, I am tellin you this is perfect for what I am wanting to do. Because I need a way to start plants in hydro without making 6 new DWC buckets I think this will be perfect. I can go back and look but I am being lazy right now, how old is this little lady now? I am thinking that I will need to keep mine in the mini Kratky for about 30 maybe 45 days and I think that is totally possible.
she's about 25 days
