Leaving the sprouting halves and the 1 leaf set until the 2 main branches grow some.
Then I’ll cut the 1 leaf set and bury him up to that level filling the pot.
The GDP went into soil this am after a 36 hour soak.
It did sink again after I splashed some water on it.
36 hours is the most time I give seeds for their initial soak.
GDP pops up. Not a helmet-head but she did need help removing her seed sack.
It was holding her leaves together, misted it, waited for it to moisten up, used file to slide it off.
Banana Kush arrives in the mail and 1 gets dropped immediately.
I took one of the small odd shaped seeds like I did with SSH.
Kind of a pinecone shaped pointy seed, is floating in warm water now.
Jack is growing the only way it has been allowed to. Sun leaves restrained.
Nice even symmetrical branches starting to go.
I took the 5 clones and stuffed them in some soil in a single pot.
I don’t need them all to succeed and will keep the eventual mother plants small
More testing the fragile Auto theories by accident.
Putting a wire straight-jacket on Jack’s leaves I felt the 1 leaf break.
Just left it alone after that, but watch it will be fine and won’t need a tie-down anymore.
Clearing Browser seems to have fixed it.
Jack is now a 1 armed bandit, called Lefty.
It is still strong and growing well.
I had to make room for him to go in the tent with the SSH girls soon.
The Ghetto grow box is at overcapacity now with GDP started, clones
and Banana Kush done soaking and in soil this am.
The SSH buds are starting to bulk up, and they barely stretched at all.
I turned the autopot cocked sideways in the tent to make room for Jack.
It doesn’t move any of the buds too close to either of the side lights to burn them
There is still about 12" that they could stretch before my top LED is too close.
I will most likely do a progressive harvest again.
Jack as an auto can go on 12/12 until the SSH finishs, then back to 20/4 to finish flowering.
Mainlining the GDP and BK won’t be done before the SSH finishes, I think.
Durban Poison, G-13, and Zkittles are next in line.
It will be nice to have a variety of top shelf buds to choose from and mix together.
Has anyone tried ILGM’s Bubblegum feminized?
Seems like a far lower THC strain than all my others.
Just because they got another damn 10+10 sale going again,
and I can get 20 seeds at $4.50 each with a coupon:
Tell me to leave the Bubblegum to the kids, as I’ve got more than I can grow for now anyway.+1:
The GDP is at a critical stage. I hope it opens its leaves better today.
It appears bunched up, somehow stressed, and possible to fail quickly
unless I provide an environment it likes enough to grow better today.
Too wet or too dry now and it might die.
Hopefully, morning sun is just what the Dr. ordered.
Maybe those rays will encourage the Banana Kush seed to pop up today.
@ashhhh The replacement plants are in visiting the SSH girls today.
Jack seems to like the stronger light in there.
He’s an Auto and can veg on 12/12 while the SSH finish.
Even if Jack goes into flower, he can be put back on the 20/4 light schedule when the SSH finish.
The GDP and BK can move in with Jack then.
ILGM Super Silver Haze! I highly recommend this strain.
It seems to always be offered in 10 +10 deals as 1 of the least expensive strains.
By far the frostiest of all the strains I’ve ever grown so far!
Getting a clone established as a mother plant to be able to keep this phenotype alive and well perpetually!
I forgot to attach today’s flash pics, even frostier.
Getting the GDP in the back corner I bumped into 1 of them and she got her sticky, stinky, funk on my arm that brushed her.
The smell stuck around for quite a while. LOL
