I am a unsucessful grower of a female plant. If you are to look at my introduction thread it gives you a basis of my experience in the past, either failure or male, and part of my current grow.
Currently I have two Citral (Nirvana), #1 & #2, which have just survived germination. The worst part of my grow seems to be the temperature, High in the low 90F's. This has been adjusted by adding DIY co2--yeast, sugar, h20 as suggested by this forum. My grow is in a box
23" x 14" x 23" which will be converted to a flower box once my girlfriend, child, and I move into our new home (maybe i'll be able to add pictures then--~12/08). With this grow i will us a 'lst' to keep the plant short and to train all the new growths that will come as i saw in my first grow. The water i will be using is filtered tap water. I adjust the ph to be between 6.0 & 7.0.
#1 is about a few days older than #2.
#1 has just started a second set of leaves with the 2 and 3 fingers growing on the first set of leaves. Although "she" started of as being stretched and broken, "she" has survived my clumsyness and is starting to take form. "she" is being grown in a 8inch pot, with part of the stretched stem buried, with Black gold top soil, a pinch of Osmocote slow release nut (19-6-12), a pinch of dolomite lime, 1/3 perlite added to soil, and perlite filling the bottom until it's above the drainage hole.
#2 has one set of leaves, a thicker stem, half the height of #1, and what appears to be the second set of leaves forming in the middle. The soil and mediums are the same but i added sphagum moss because i needed to get rid of it.
Hope to see the imaginitive during my grow and harvest.
Much mahalo,
