All seeds popped within 24 hours except AK-47 which took a couple days. Germinated 5 of the AK and only 2 popped but had 100% success with the 3 other strains.
Put some soil mix in a seedling starter dome and sprayed down with kelp water. Everything broke soil in about 24 hours. Seedlings started to stretch using just the one dome LED light so I turned on 4 other dome lights and sat them above the dome. They are now about 1-3 inches from the top of seedlings so have started to harden them off outside. Yesterday they were out in sun for 3 hours. Today they were in cloudy and windy conditions for 6 hours. Tomorrow will be all day but come in at night. Next day they are out for good.
End of week 3 since germination.
Sprinkled in some 4-2-2 at end of week 3.
Moving bags once per day to allow for 8 hours of direct sunlight.
All looks good.
So far the spring/summer has been mild days and cool nights. About half the days are cloudy with little to no sun. Not ideal for my garden.
End of week 6 and pistils have formed so we are flowering now. Fed a few tablespoons of Gaia Power Bloom (2-8-4) on the last day of week 6. Just grabbed a large pinch and sprinkled on top and then mixed it into the soil a bit. Gave them a good watering.
Overall plants look good. Have stretched slightly with some leaf curling (cold weather and possibly a few aphids is my guess) but growth looks healthy.
Plan is to just feed Power Bloom one or two more feeds and then starve them at the end before harvest.
