First Grow! Hamburg, Germany on a South-facing Balcony
Valis First, I put all 3 seeds in a glass of water for 24h. After the first roots started to show, I transferred them to wet cotton balls in a glass jar. After another 48 hours, both Orange Punch and Diesel had developed roots that looked good to me. Sadly, when handling I clipped a small part of the orange punch root, you can see it in the pictures. It should be short enough not to destroy the seed, it might be a bit slower now.
Diesel and Orange Punch were transferred to soil on 16.06. On the morning of the 18th, Diesel popped through the surface with the first two leaves and without the shell!
Gorilla was growing a lot slower than the rest, but after 4 days in cotton the root was long enough and started turning green, so I transferred the last seed to soil two days later than the others, on 18.06.
Im Growing them in 11L fabric pots, with Floragard Professional Growmix soil.

Valis Diesel popped out of the ground in the morning of 18.06.
Nothing from Gorilla and Orange Punch yet. Weather is finally looking up here in Hamburg, i can expect an average temp of 20°C and around 10 hours of sunlight. The Plants sit on my first-story balcony and get a decent amount of direct light.

Valis Orange Punch and Diesel are doing well! Gorilla not so much.... i suspect the bright sun was too much for the young seedling. I have now moved it into the shade a little.

Valis I decided to top Orange Punch on the 13th, after the fifth pair of leaves. Diesel I didn't top, because she had started to flower. I applied some wire to the branches. I might leave Gorilla alone too.
Next week (starting from the 16th), I will start fertilizing them with the Homegrow24 fertilizer.
