This will be my first time attempting to grow cannabis! It is legal in my state, however I live in an apartment that has very strict rules about trying to grow and how they still see it as illegal, so I can't have an indoor setup just yet unfortunately and cant grow outside either, way too many eyes. Luckily, my dad has a place nearby that we've decided to setup a small Greenhouse that I found on Amazon. So day 1 I put each individual seed into a plastic water bottle filled about 1/3 with filtered water that had sat out for 24 hrs. hopefully to de-chlorinate and then labeled them and let them sit in dark area for 16 hrs. I came back after 16 hours and the seeds sank with one little tap, so then I poured the seeds into different napkins, making sure they weren't soaked but fairly moist for each seed and folded them up and put in a tupper-ware to sit for 48 hrs. This was on a Thursday morning and I planned to plant them Saturday morning. Saturday morning I built the Greenhouse, set up the pots and then opened the tupper-ware. Each seed germinated, but I feel like I might be off to a bad start. Every seed had the root coming out, but they also had what looked like fuzzy mold growing on the root. The root began to stick to the paper towel as well, so I tried to gently remove them and just plant carefully, I'm hoping that they can handle it and not die off immediately. The one that worries me a little is the Peyote Gorilla, a little piece broke off on the paper towel. I wish I had taken pictures but in the slight hurry to get everything done I just tossed the seed in and I'm hoping for the best. I'm going to go check them out on Monday and I'll take pictures of the Greenhouse setup.
