Just setup the 1 liter air-pots with happy frog.
bleached the tent the other day with 10% bleach solution to sanitize it.
now pondering on the seeds to plant but will moisten the soil in a couple minutes since its on the dry side.
Will be looking for some keepers and maybe throw some pollen with some of the males later so might start off with more of the fem's
Im thinking of just doing one strain then right now cuz darksider mentiond sog will fuck you up with differnt growth habbits and flowering times. both of what i didnt really think of i was just like yeah ill fit them in there since i can fit this many pots inside
I remember sometime I didnt plant the seeds deep enough or something and i had to use tweezers or toothpicks to get the shell off. going to get some new ones or sanitize some i find.
And for the Tha melon 1-4 i grew i think my favorite was the #4. all of them had the melon taste on it that coated the tounge for a while and the high was nice made my worries go away with no negative effects. Smoked great out of a pipe and joints most flavour in a pipe or if you can get a lower tempature hit. Bongs worked well just didint get as much of the flavour.
The strattcietella was probly done way before the melons. and the high on that was chill had a bit uplifting that combined with the mellon made me able to stay up for a long time .
I have some crazy PTSD and alot of the weed from the shop that my family would buy is good but alot of the times I get negative side effects.
first sign of life is from Soap x Zbx. the biggest seeds were the Haze mix i planted all the seeds 0,6” inch so little over half an inch deep at least.
To quote my favorite Yordle - "I've applied the formula for success!"
Another Soap xZbx came up and at least one of each of the others except the Haze mix has popped up. Charging phone for pics.
first seedling looks like the clear layer is keeping the cotydylons stuck together will poke at it soon first i dropped a couple drops of water on it to see if it fixed itself.
used tweezers to take the cotyledon layer off the other ones popping through had no problem shedding it on their own.
Haze Mix has shown life waiting to see if it sheds hull fully did not want to water them yet since they were still on the wet side.
Good morning Looks like everything has popped up and most of the seedlings have shed the hull by themselves.
Had the plants too close to the tent with the front door open and light too high up. Caused some of the ones in front to start stretching a bit closed the tent up and lowerd the light a tad bit. tent is around 77°-80°-F. No fans on except the exhaust on lowest setting.
Guy on IG- Which genetics are in the mix? A5 S1 from Karma crossed to which boys?
Sativahoardersco - any line used with our Mango A5 male, mainly Back to the Haze lines and mostly Killer Mango A5 and Mexican Haze 5. Tho you can still find some Back to the Haze lines x Oaxacan Tribute v2 male
Happy holidaze everyone.
was supposed to post after halloween i kept using the airpots but fucked up using them by not bottom watering next time i use them i will put a coffee filter on bottom like i had done previously which helped wick up the water to the bottom of the pots and not let it leak as fast.
so on a couple of them i put a ziplock under the airpot and they started improving the health. i tranplanted all of them into the black 1 gallons and they all improving. difference is night and day. on one of the pots that had a ziplock bag the roots went into the bag through the bottom of the airpot bottom and when transplanting that one couldnt seperate it easily so left it alone and so that one has airpot plate in it into the 1 gallon haha. ( it was the healthiest looking one of that strain).
I was overwatering /underwatering like a madman since the soil was hydrophobic on the bottom of the airpots. and i kept watering since i lifted the pots and the botttom of it looked dry (the coffee filter would help there)
Picked up some Maxi Series I heard the Bloom can be considered as using the Lucas Formula but picked up both since the price was right. have never ph'd anything before but got a ph kit just incase since we picked up some Tupur and Kings mix which are coco and coco/peat.
The first time i grew i used Black Magic soil which is also a cocoa/peat mix and just did the lucas formula using jungle juice that was gifted to me from a friend who worked at a hydrostore and had plenty of stuff he got for free as samples from suppliers dropping into the store.
The first grow i did was outdoors and it was Cheesy Rider and Ghostrider OG. I had no idea about cloning and figured it was something really complicated. My Dad germinated the seedlings outdoors in a tray and it just happend to rain so some of the seeds did not survive the germination process. He grew before me and used some miracle grow soil on them and just watered them and was not too sucessful. one funny quote from him was " What are they some pussy plants!?" lol that just how he is.
From then on i have been really interested in studying and improving on how i can be more sucesfful with my grows.
My first expereince gardening was with roses and my mother showing me how to water them. Water the soil deeply and not too often. My uncle gifted her some Plumerias from Hawai and she has been growing them ever since.
In the future i plan on growing some Roses from bare root. and I have planted some Plumera from seed and they have yet to bloom. We had filled up a moving truck with plants from our old home to our new home but had to leave allot of the roses and plumeria. We took cuttings of some of the ones in the ground. But i didnt think of taking cuttings of any of the roses. Also had a couple trees in our front yard that i wish i had taken a small cut of there branches to make a bonzai if thats possible.
