Germination in biodegradable pots (I'll cut the bottom when I put them in the final pot). ~5mm under the soil.
30.04
After 4 days, 2 have already popped out of the soil. 1 will be out soon, it's just the purple lemonade that hasn't germinated yet. So, I put in a second one, and it has started to germinate.

First weekend is over. All the seeds except the Purple Lemonade have germinated. So, I germinated another Purple Lemonade seed just to be safe after 3 days, and that one has germinated. That's why there's one that's much smaller.
I'm going to keep them indoors for now given the bad weather that's coming. I'll put them in the big final 30L pots in about a week.
For now, they've just been watered with rainwater in Light Mix Plagron soil.

First little watering with RootJuice and BioHeaven, I divided the doses provided by Biobizz by 4, we'll see how they react and I'll increase it gradually...
05.05
So far they're reacting well, I put them in their final pot today by cutting the bottoms of the biodegradable pots. And I tried to put them in the greenhouse since the weather has been very changeable and windy these days.

Last day of the first week of growth. The sun is gently coming back today. Watering with rainwater.
And when I will put them in the large 30l pots within 1 week, I am thinking of cutting the bottom of the biodegradable pots (because I have read that sometimes the roots have trouble getting through). Is it a good idea ?
I would actually completely transplant from those pots, I've grown a bunch of them transplanted with that same pot into the soil and they sometimes struggle much more.

First day of the second week of growth.
The sun has really come back this time, but it will only be here until 09.05...
09.05
Last big sunny day before a few days (again...).
Second watering with nutrients (I water about 1/2 times with nutrients). The first time I divided the doses given by 4 for Bio-Roots and Bio-Heaven, this time I divided them by 2 since they reacted well to the first dose. I also added 1/4 of the dose given of Bio-Grow.
I also added a bit of soil on top to cover the stems.
12.05
Watering with 4ml/l of Root Juice, 1ml/l of Bio-Heaven, 1ml/l of Bio-Grow.
Very cloudy and rainy weather since 10.05, and it’s going to continue for a while... I really have no luck with the outdoor weather, they are growing super slowly.

The GSC and Gorilla Cookies are doing very well, but as usual, the other two are not doing as well, especially the Six Shooter, which really has some weird leaves.
Otherwise, the weather is still really bad, it's starting to get annoying. I hope it will be over by the end of this week.
I water every 3-4 days since the water doesn't dry out with no sun.

Still not very stable weather, not much sun. But it should come back this weekend. Otherwise, nothing more to say, they are growing very slowly but they are holding on...
The leaves on my Six Shooter are getting really weird, is that a genetic issue? Or a deficiency? Or the lack of sun? The Purple Lemonade is also a little weird, but already less ...
yeah lack of light is a cause of this in my opinion I have plants that look the same in a green house and i live in the uk which is why lol not alot of light in this crap whole lol :) Shell be okay just give her time and more light if you can :)
Would it be worth it for me to go and buy a CFL bulb at a DIY store while I wait for the sun to come back? Or is it not good to have 2 different types of lighting (sun and cfl bulb)? And what kind of cfl bulb I could take?
Hi Bro, I always alternate sunlight and artificial light at beginning and for all seedlings stage. My girls seem to love this. CFL bulbs work on for 1/2 weeks. This year I've bought on AE some interesting led lamps for less than 20 bucks, 28W (declared) full spectrum, E27. These are visible on my new diaries so U can judge if they work or not alternated to sunlight. Remember the rule "not less than 15000 lumen". Cheers

BIG CHANGE.
The sun and warmth are gently arriving, but on the other hand, my plants are really not progressing and they're going to start flowering while still very small.
So, I've decided to move 3/4 of my plants into the forest. I'm only keeping the GSC because it's the prettiest.
I've also started germinating 3 seeds:
1x Gorilla Cookies
1x Six Shooter
1x Gorilla Girl XL
I'm going to create a new grow diary for the 3 new ones and the GSC that I'm keeping.
I'll update this one from time to time when I go check on them in the forest.
