Lazy grow beneath a roof window, no artificial lights, no ventilation, no anything.
Seed got soaked in water for 24 hours, then put directly into soil (BioBizz All-Mix). Soil had been watered until it was completely soaked two days in advance. Pot used is 11 litre Gronest (textile pot), didn't fill up the soil to its whole volume, though. Probably 9 or at most 10 litres of soil.
Seedling broke through the surface on 03.04.2024, pics above are taken on 04.04.2024.
This seedling has an additional germination leaf. Contacted Sweet Seeds about it, possibly indicating this may be a triploid cannabis plant. I know very little about polyploid cannabis, so i thought it may be fun to document the development.
I'm sorry - i didn't take any pics in this week. Added one pic to show the whole setup, though. Top row left Bubble Kush Auto; bottom left Green Gelato Auto; bottom right Royal Gorilla Auto (all RQS and will NOT be covered here), finally top right Dark Devil Auto.
Seedling seemed somewhat undecided if it wanted to live or if it wanted to just die off. Very little progress. I just let the plant do its thing and observed.
Some general info: no nudes at this age, soil is heavily fertilized already.
Room-temps over the day around 20-24° C, depending on weather. Weather had been pretty mixed, compared to 2023 and 2022, this years April had less sunlight and it shows with the plants. Night-temps probably somewhat lower than 20° C, but not by much.
Heating is still turned on, so temps during the day will at least have 20° C.
Humidity is fluctuating in the 30 - 40% range.
No water given, soil still humid from initial soaking.
Growing plants under these suboptimal conditions this early in the year is harsh for the plants. I use to do another growing cycle around end of May / early June, which is more beneficial for the seedling stage. If i compare results, i find that plants started this early grow bigger under this conditions.
Usually "ugly" stretched plants, but yield can be (depending on strain) quite bigger than what the same strain will deliver if grown later in the year.
I had originally planned to use the Dark Devil in the 2. cycle this year. Planted four different strains of RQS seeds for the first run, however one seed didn't germinate (was an older seed anyway, also the first time for me that a seed didn't germinate).
Since i hadn't any seeds from that particular strain left i decided to speed up my plans and use a Dark Devil seed as a replacement, as i have quite a few of those.
Talking about this particular seed: it was suspiciously small. Color, texture all looked normal, size didn't. As i had so far only experience with seeds from RQS, i compared this "strange" seed to the other Dark Devil seeds, the others were all much bigger.
I then compared all Dark Devil seeds to seeds from RQS (different strains) and they all had more or less the same size, making this particular seed the only one that stuck out. Don't know if there's any connection to this size thing.
Amusingly, the seed used here was a bonus seed from a "Muestra Gratuita" single pack. I had bought a 3+1 pack of this strain from a reseller and that seller had added 4 of those single seed freebie packs.
