DAY 14
No water. Updated Strain information to not mislead any growers. Tropic Orange from Equilibrium Genetics.
DAY 12/13
Gave the seedlings a light watering in the morning. I have successfully started all the plants for the outdoor season. I will focus mostly on growing Tropic Orange outdoor this year. The first female I identify from the bunch will have its own 45 gallon home until the chop. The remaining females will be paired up in 30 gallon fabric pots.
DAY 11
No water today. New seedlings are ready. Surprise! T.O.3 somehow stayed alive and now I have T.O.3 and T.O.11 both sprouting from the same pot. Considered moving one, but then I said nah! Just leave it.
DAY 10
Watered early in the morning. The days are cloudy, but not wet. Soil has retained water nicely. The seedlings and sprouts are both in similar locations.
DAY 9
I didn't water. New seeds all germinated. I placed all 7 roots in soil. Will continue with moving plants in the night to avoid the slugs in the garden. So far I have successfully germinated 15 Tropic Orange seeds from Equilibrium Genetics. All seeds have then been placed in Fox Farms Happy Frog soil.
DAY 8
I water the seedlings very lightly. I would say it is a sprinkle more than a watering. They are some eager seedlings that are growing significantly by the day.
I am starting 7 seeds today to make up for the seedlings the slugs are eating. I am complacent to change my ways in the garden at times, but I am aware that there are ways to fight the slugs.
I think you might want to start planning out how to do some LST on your 4 plants in the 30gl pot. 1 plant can become a monster and you have 4 that are sativa dominant. Good luck!
@Big_Rade_SCLA, I'd wait till they show their sex before doing anything drastic. That way you can really go all out on what type of training you do. My 2¢
@Kritkl, my guess is that they won't all be girls and I'll end up pulling one or two out, but LST has been on my mind. I'll take your advice for these four.
@Kritkl, you can smell it from like 15 to 20 feet away. Real sweet dank smell. Close up you smell citrus-mint-orange or mandarin. The tallest one has a hint of purple on the nugs and smells a little like mango. Bomb stuff from Equilibrium.
