I germinated these babies in a shot glass of warm water, transferred 24 hrs. later to a damp paper towel on a heat mat for a day. After a considerable taproot, I put them in root root pods (had to split it to compensate for the root).
They sprouted the next day. They are under a little dome with heat and are doing fine.
These little buggers are eager and they quickly out rooted the Root Riot pods. I transplanted them into solo cups with Fox Farms Happy Frog. They are still under a dome because the humidity in my house sucks. After transplanting, I gave them water with Recharge.
So, these are growing under a 100w CFL bulb that sits about 9/10 inches above. They are growing aggressively, but they are VERY leggy. Means I need to put that light in their lap (damn near).
I've had to bury them twice, but they are coming along nicely and have sprouted their third set of true leaves.
I will try to top one of them, and LST one in the next couple of weeks. They are autos, so I'm not sure how much the topped one will be stressed.
This grow is interesting.
Seedlings are doing well, but one is growing at twice the rate of the others. I am battling fluctuating humidity again, so I just covered them with the space bags.
This week was interesting!
I transplanted them into 5 gallon pots and possibly stunted the smallest one. I put them in the grow tent. The largest of the bunch doubled in height a couple of days later....I immediately thought "that's a boy." Sure enough, I must've stressed that plant because it was flowering at 3.5 weeks and balls were everywhere.
Just before transplanting, i reached out to the breeder for information on this strain and he admitted that the seeds came from unstable/herming mothers and he gave the seeds away because he didn't want to waste his hard work. He also said he never grew these seeds. WTF.....
These little things are actively in preflower and doing their best to thrive.
I attempted actual LST for the first time and had to adjust the pipe cleaners twice to get it right and compensate for growth.
I also top dressed with 4-4-4 all purpose.
These plants are mighty dwarfs. They are much smaller than my auto at that stage (even though I'm LSTing), and I wo8get much of a yield, but we'll see what happens.
@gdub_va_lpc, nor sure yet. I've been trying to research the two strains but can't find much about JEM. I'll probably email the breeder and I will let you know.
