Northern Lights RQS Fem - First Grow

My first grow, since Germany decriminlized cannabis. Quick overview of the law for international readers, because my grow revolves around it: The law allows german adults, or people living in germany, to grow 3 plants in their homes/gardens for personal use. A "cannabis plant" is specified as a cannabis plant showing preflower (not a lawyer). This means that seedlings do not fall under the three plant restriction. If a mother plant falls under it is somewhat unclear. It is legal to harvest up to 50g. If you exceed 60g per person, you enter criminality with possible prison sentences. Therefore, i start with 4 RQS feminized Northern Light. Since this is my first grow, the fourth servers only as a buffer for my incompetence -- but it will eventually have to go. Since this grow is my first, i want to keep it simple and build an experience baseline: Use photos, transplant two times, no training besides defoliation for health purposes. Use plain tomato soil and tomato fertilizer. Germination: Soak seeds 3-4 hours in glass of water to kickstart the process, before dropping them into regular herb soil. two out of 4 seeds aleardy showed radicl after just 3-4 hours. This type of germination makes most sense to me. Does not harm root with a paper towel, but doesn not run into the problem of a dry spot in soil. All 4 seeds germinated perfectly.
