Ok so we are starting to stress the seedlings. Put the AC to 60 to see how they do under cold temps. Hopefully one female and one male grows vigorously from this.

Still slow growth as expected with cold temps and light at 12/12. Still growing which is a good sign. Debating on transplanting into one gallon pots.

Wow okay so a lot has transpired. I moved.. I lost a lot of plants, started new ones under the same conditions and found a keeper from a different strain(mother plant). Out of the grape snowcone, a male survived. At one point it didn’t grow because I just left it sitting out in a room …so I put it in warmer conditions with the light on 24/7 and it started to grow really fast. I’m not sure if males can reveg but we will see. I’m excited to have a strong male and a strong female.

So the stressing is over with. I threw everything at it, high temps, low temperatures, no watering ,over watering, staying in the same pot so the roots can't grow, overfeed, high and low humidity. It does great with a higher pH 7.0-7.5 and fish water..doesn't like a lower ph. Using fox farm trio + calmag and Dr Earth dry amendments for the nutrients. The nitrogen from the fox farm with their recommended caused no issues but overfeeding does. wind burn very easily. I'm not sure of the smell. The stem rub to me smells the same on every plant. It just smells green. The pic is showing the stress. Will update with pics next week. Ready to use this to breed with
