I put the seed into a glass of water for 18 hour and then directly into the soil. Most of the time after 3-4 days the plant appears.

as the temperatures are getting colder you can already see the plant takes way longer than in summer time. lets see how long they will take to finish out.

Plants are developing slowly due to the cold temperatures. I think the living soil also slows down its metabolisms.

Just let the plant ripe out one more week as the trichomes look not ready yet. Besides the fluffy buds the smell is amazing.
