It was my first time germinating directly in substrate. The wait was something else but patience paid off. The Cocopopo broke soil first followed by the Original Orange Bud, OG Kush and Bubblegum Extra.
It is day 9 and nothing yet from the Northern Lights and Amnesia Platinum. I'll give it a few more days.
The Northern Lights seed did not sprout. I gave it 15 days after planting in soil.
The Amnesia Platinum sprouted on the 14th day but seems to be struggling. She's not opening her cotyledon leaves so I'm afraid she might not make it...only time will tell.
The Amnesia Platinum's cotyledon leaves still did not open. I found a seed shell which were stuck to the cotyledon leaves which prevented them from opening. I gently removed the shell. The cotyledons are open now.
09/11/2022: update on the Amnesia Platinum...she didn't make it R.I.P 😕
I noticed that growth really sucks but soon realised that I had my light was on too low wattage. I have increased my wattage and it seems like the girls has taken off a bit.
I do have concerns about the OG Kush Auto and also the Bubblegum Extra. They've been different since the start. Only time will tell with these two I suppose.
Girls are looking better since increasing the power on the top light. Managed to find the sweet spot. I will increase the power again in a week or so. I have only given Cal Mag at this stage.
The Bubblegum Extra and OG Kush seems to have grown out of their mutations a LITTLE although they are still considerably slower than the rest. They sprouted a couple of days after the Original Orange Bud and Cocopopo but yeah I would still say their growth rate is much slower.
Being a first year grower and the eagerness to learn everything about growing is making me keep the weaklings which, for me, creates more opportunities to work on that knowledge.
The Cocopopo is the first girl that is six weeks old. It does seem like she's going into pre-flower.
The OG Kush will definitely be a miniature and the Bubblegum Extra has grown a little more.
This diary has tought me that single diaries are the future.
All of the girls have started to pre-flower.
The OG Kush didn't grow as much as the Bubblegum Extra has. They are both mutants which I decided to keep for me to observe and learn from.
I'm very happy that I kept the mutants (OG Kush & Bubblegum Extra) I'm aware that they might not have the best yields but it I enjoy watching them grow in their own unique ways.
Happy New Year!
These genetics by Bulk Seed Bank have been nothing but amazing so far. Plenty of new growth is visible each day. Even the mutant and runt has almost caught up to the stronger two which is the Cocopopo Auto and Original Orange Bud Auto.
I have done no training on these plants. I only took off a few leaves from the bottom a couple of times.
