What's good people? I am excited to bring to you my first grow from seed. My first actual grow was a set of Peanut Butter Breath clones I picked up at a farmers market. Ever since I cut those down I have been chomping at the bit to get some seeds and give it a go. A family trip at the beginning of July pushed me back from starting right away, but the 7 ounces of Peanut Butter Breath helped soothe the chafing (Metaphorical, I have very comfortable van seats and strong AC.). At some point I had mad the decision to grow 9lb Hammer of Jinxproof fame, but was not knowledgeable about where to pick stuff up and bought from Growers Choice Seeds. This isnt a dig, I just might have rather picked up from Jinxproof's site out of respect. I had gotten the seeds mid grow on my clones and until I popped them I had kept them in my fridge. I saw a thing on the internet about seeds waking up from winter and said, hey that makes sense. I used the paper towel method. I set the paper towels and three seeds between two plates and suspended a light fixture with a grow light in it about 6 inches above it to keep them warm. After three days I had two very impressive germinations and one that had barely slipped the tip out of the seed. The first two had completely shed their shells and were atleast 2 inches long with vibrant cotyledons. For their vessels I decided on these planter cups a friend had given me, washed them thoroughly, filled them up with Coast of Maine's Bar Harbor Blend Organic Potting Soil and, because of a nuts video I saw on YT, I added Espoma Tomato Tone to them. (Looking back, this was a mistake.) I made a hole in the center of each and planted the tap roots for the strong germinators with some of their stem sticking out above the soil (I also think this was a mistake.) and I planted the slow germ seed on a whim, I figured the first two would be more than healthy enough to fill my 4x2. For the first week I put a baggy over the tops and misted inside them for humidity. Until next weed! Tent: Vivosun 4x2x5 Light: SpiderFarmer SF-2000 (40%) 18" above: 24/0 Humidifier set to 60% Vivosun 4inch inline fan set to low. Fan nearby but pointed up and away from plants, just to get air moving.
