HerbalEdu expected flowering: 9-10 weeks
Germination method: cotton disc or paper towel with tap water or bottled mineral water
Tent: BlackBox Silver 90x60x180cm (3'x2'x6')
Extractor: 220 m³/h
Soil: Biobizz All-Mix
Veg: CFL Florastar Dual Spectrum 250W
Flo: LED Spider Farmer SF-2000 200W
Initial plan was to launch some Skunk #1 from WeedSeedShop but i probably fucked germination due to overwatering.
As i can't fill my tent with this batch of seeds, i think i may just gonna try to keep those 4 skunk #1 phenotypes that made it to first true leaves stage in veg while relaunching and growing something else and may be clones 2 of each to fill my tent next grow.
As i m not sure what went wrong i have relaunched some seeds with different methods as replacement to fill the tent and to see if i get better result with one or the other method:
- 10 5 years old Zamnesia - Choco Haze just curious to see if they gonna sprout / cotton pad - bottled mineral water
- 10 Bruce Banner CBD R1/S1 cotton pad / bottled mineral water
- 10 Bruce Banner CBD R1/S1 paper towel / bottled mineral water
- 10 Bruce Banner CBD R1/S1 cotton pad / tap water
- 10 Bruce Banner CBD R1/S1 paper towel / tap water
I took a special attention not making the cotton pads too damp this time.
germination: 37/40 had open up after 116H.
sprout: 25/29 vigorous enough after a week ; i have transplanted 29 seedlings after 92H i don't have enough room under the lamp to transplant more. One in 6L pot has it's first true set of leaves malformed i'm waiting to see if the second set of leaves gonna form normally before eventually replacing it. Another one in 6L pot seem to be damping off, i have replaced it.
After 116H only two Choco Haze had open up, only one was vigorous enough for being transplanted but she didn't make it to first true leaves stage.

I have found a fair amount of males preflowers mostly bottom of the canopy with one phenotype. Gonna keep a watchfull eye in the next few weeks.
I have found a very few more males preflowers with 2 other phenotypes.

(Day 51 - Week 8):
I have done a lite defoliation, removed two leaves per plants near canopy level with the 6 right plants to give a better light exposure to some lower branches.

4 of them look and behave a lot like their parents. The two on the left are a little different with a tendency for leaves praying upward and they also started to flower early. The two tallest seem to form slightly more elongated and airy buds than their parents and the other phenotypes they also seem a little less advanced in their flowering than the others.
They don't all react the same to my feeding schedule:
- the 3 smallest have very dark green leaves and are showing much less unhealthy leaves bottom of the canopy
- 4 others have much lighter green green leaves with more unhealthy and decaying leaves bottom of the canopy
- 1 is an intermediate green in between the others
A few phenotypes seem to show some purple here and there.

I have found and removed one cluster of bananas with pheno 8 and i have found a noticeable amount of cluster with bananas with pheno 4 that are too tricky to remove.
Day 83:
I gave 4 of them a boost in NPK when watering. Their leaves were yellowing fast the past few days not sure if deficiencies or nutrient lockout.
Week 13 Day 85:
Looks like it's getting worse faster than it should so i might have senescence + nutrient lockout happening, i think i might have to buy a pH and EC pen and check my run off next watering to figure it out.
Week 13 Day 86:
I have been reading pheno 4 run off:
Water ph 6.9 ec 0.61
run off ph 5.9 ec 2.45
so well ph isn't especially out of range and yeah may be EC is a little higher than it should late flower ... but not to the point it could cause a pH or nutrient lockout i think.

Tested a joint with 4 smaller buds one of them had some seeds so like their parents they've been more or less pollinated.
Great fruity, flowery with earthy hint taste.
They were a little less homogeneous than their parents.
Above average yield. Better than their parents.
Not especially more hermie phenotypes within the batch than their parents.

@BudBoutique, i have always done cotton pad and tap water but as i had issue with my last batch and as i have some extra seeds under the belt i have decided to try various condition with germination.
