  5. Excited to see how this grow goes as I followed the last one and can't tell you how sorry I am for the hermie ...

    Will subscribe to this grow
     
  6. Little bit of progress. Lemon skunk is showing a tap root. No one else has popped yet. Gonna plant the skunk tomorrow. 1439078886909.jpg 1439078877657.jpg
     
  7. Are you putting them into the same soil you will be using throughout the grow?
     
  8. I will be. I am going to stick with using pro-mix bx. It served me well in my last grow. Figured I'll give it a shot on this grow.
    Pro-mix is a peat based soilless mix
     
  9. I waited as long as i could for the rest. I planted the lemon skunk today . root was getting so long it almost lost its helmet.

    The mystery seed looks like it released a little goo onto the paper. Moved the seed to see what it was... Looks like goop... Gonna watch it...

  10. Just modified my half gallon planters. I used a hole punch to make holes around the top of the container.

    The method I use for growing would be described like a mainline scrog. These should help me train early. Get them used to it before they go into the big pots. Hope some of these other seeds pop.

    (Thankfully I still have a backup plan...)
     
  11. Looks like gloop ;P haha
     
  12. Still no progress from the rest of the seeds... Gonna give them the rest of the week and see if anything happens

    Lemon skunk. Set up and ready to rock. Added some plastic wrap over the top to hold moisture

  13. So I'm a little upset that only 2 of the 4 seeds popped... Well 1 and a half... Damn goop... I think I am going to try the shot glass of water and wait till it sinks method.

    Anyone have any other methods they have found successes with?
     
  14. My best has been the paper towel. Only have one unsuccessful seed in the paper towel. Also, I have done well by simply sinking a bean in the dirt. You just use your finger or can use a pen or sharpie and stick it down to make a hole about an inch down or so.
     
  15. I would like to introduce everyone to...
    Lois the Lemon Skunk 1439346899195.jpg
     
  16. Hell yea bro. I can't wait to follow this one now. Give it more time you find the others will pop later.
     
  17. So we have some interesting developments this evening. I checked on the seeds the we're germinating, and had no developments.. So I took some initiative.... #4 Mystery Jar Seed, had a little goo coming out of it for a couple days now, but no root... So I gave her a little squeeze... Pop, the seed split about 75% of the way around the seam. And out popped the tap root. Still looking white.. So I tossed that biotch in a solo cup with some pro-mix. Didn't have a planter near by lol. Gonna see how the solo cup works. Unplanned experiment lol.
    The super silver haze was a bunk seed. Dropped it in water and it dank like a rock. Cracked it and everything looked dead.
    I tossed the mango haze on a jar of water and its floating... Maybe she will crack that shell and I can plant her too...

    So in the mean time I started germing 4 more seeds...

    AK-47 (bag seed)
    Larry OG (bag seed, NOT fem)
    White widow (bag seed)
    Super silver haze (fem)

    Hopefully I have some better luck this time. Fingers crossed
     
  18. Bang! Ak 47 popped this morning. Yes!
     
  19. Checked a little bit ago...

    AK-47, Larry OG, and White widow all popped open and showing tap root.

    Once again the super silver haze hasn't popped...

    Starting to think these super silver haze seeds are failboats...

    But at least I have 4 seeds that germinated. Booyah
