Grow Log, Day 8

Below are photos I took of the cuttings on the day that I received them, and now today (day eight). Notice I added a second CFL after the first day. All the cuttings were slightly to moderately wilted after transplanting, but they did perk up quite a bit. The only cutting that failed was one that had nearly no leaves and was pretty much just a stem. Also, several cuttings have started growing aerial roots.

The reddish pot in the day eight photos is a Dionaea Muscipula (venus flytrap) that I had in a different terrarium and moved to this one for the increased light.

Grow Log, Day 2

Strain: Blosser
Lighting: 2x CFL
Grow Media/Soil Mix: Organic Seed Starting Jiffy-Mix
Fertilizer: None for now
Temperature Range: 70-75 F
Humidity: 80%
Started From: Clone
Start Date: 26 February, 2010

Other Details/Images: Yesterday, I received eight Salvia Divinorum clones from salviasource.org, and have since placed them in Jiffy Peat Pots with Organic Seed Starting Jiffy-Mix, and they are in a 10 gallon aquarium with a light hood containing 2x CFL at 5000k and 2700k color temperature. The lighting is currently on an 18 hour cycle.

They arrived great, but due to the low humidity here they began to wilt pretty quickly. However, after placing them in the aquarium purchased specifically to become a humidity chamber and gauges to go with it, they have all perked up and are looking good. The humidity is maintained right around 80% and the temperature is a pretty consistent 72 F (they are indoors).
