oldthymer * Popped seeds into shot glass for about 5 hours on a heating mat * Transferred into a solo cup of soil mixture of 70/30 Happy Frog:Perlite * Put on a heating pad in the tent with the lights on @ ~250 PPFD at the top of the solo cup Started the germination process on the 6th, seeds emerged from the soil on the 9th. There were a few helmet heads I removed by turning off any circulation in the tent then spraying the seed casings. After about 10 minutes the shells came off. Seedlings were labeled 1-4. #3 is stringy, first set of leaves are on the thin side #2 first set of leaves are thicker, one leaf looks abnormal #4 first set of Leaves are on the thin side, looks fine #1 looks the best, bigger leaves (fatter, also bigger), sized well Watered with water and some hydrogen peroxide on 12/11/23 at 6.16ph
