Landrace: Sinai 'Rose'. Week 0 - Keep it simple: wet paper towel, covered tray, seed heat mat @70F

MrCrispy 5 of 5 success rate using paper towel method. Nice vigor, 1st real leaves started about day 10 from start. Moved from PT to 1" rockwool cube for 3-4 days until root tendrils appear on the bottom of the rockwool. This anchors them for transplants Rockwool cubes moved into center/top of whatever 4-6" pots I have, or into paper cups. Rockwool stays too cool to root out properly IMHO, the soil acts as both insulation and gives access to nutrients without risking root damage. I suspect these genetics are an indica hybrid well acclimatized and tolerant of a wide range of conditions, not as close to landrace as perhaps suggested. I picked it for its unusual terpene profile

MrCrispy The Sinai Rose is showing a lot of vigor. It was first to root out the 6" pots and get a transplant. I would guess there is some hybridization within 3-5 generations leading to the vigor. With the true landraces, growth rates are about half this good. Still looks like a fun grow out and hopefully we see an interesting phenotype manifest. I am after a unique smell profile for this one.

MrCrispy 7Apr: (day 31) The Sinai and DJS Blue Velvet 2.0 are leading the charge based on root system checks today. All were transplanted from 2.5qt >> 5.0qt pots. They got a nice 2cups of water each after the transplant, since its going to be 90F today. They are spending 6am-8am in the tent, 8am-1pm (when hot) or 8am-4pm (when cool), then back into the tent until 8pm lights out.

MrCrispy 14Apr: Lovely genetics emerging on week 5. Mixed indoor-outdoor totalling 16hrs/day while sexing finishes up. One boy, one girl, three unknown so far. The boy is looking nice and bushy which will have me aiming to grow it out, collect pollen, and inbreed with it. I would call these Indica-leaning phenotypes so far. 1tsp/gal of Nitrogen nutes on Sunday was their first non-soil food, when everyone got a good light feeding. Weather had them outside 4 days of 7 for 6-8hrs of sun. When not outside they are in the 5x5 MarsHydro tent under a SpiderFarm SF4000 LED panel running at 100% until 6pm when I drop it to 40% until the timer kicks off. By 4pm the plants have had 10hrs and show the drooping of their leaves that says "we're tired".

MrCrispy 21Apr: Happy 420. The Sinai have all expressed their sex with 2 males, 3 females. These males are isolated and outside full time starting 3-4 days ago. They havent bolted and become scraggly like the Rasoli male, but I am pruning them up aggressively and topping them both. Whichever does better after the pruning will be grown out; the other mulched. The three remaining females are doing great, though I have favored some other plants this week in transplanting and the Sinai should be in 5gal by now but are in 3gal which I need to fix by this weekend. Next week the weather should settle enough to move them all outside and concentrate on the upcoming war of insects.

Those are great roots!!! For more roots around the soil you could make holes on the sides, them the roots may get more oxygen around the pot, not only on the bottom!! Check how they don't have roots around... Also, more perlite would be great.

@Psilocubensis, Thanks! Since they only spent one week in the 2.5qt pots, I wasnt expecting much visible side-rooting. Next transplant I will look for them pretty much stitched up with roots all around, but in wildly swinging weather I needed them in safer/larger containers as fast as they would support it. Have a look at the Nanda Devi and you can see I am also dealing with intentionally poor soil mixes for Himalayan native strains. I am intentionally *not* following general grow methods for my landrace adventures, though the Sinai isnt acting like a landrace.
