All sprouted, well and healthy, although a friend killed the GC during transplantation, so I replaced her with a Mango Sherbert I had as a backup. On top I made 2 mistakes. 1. My dumb ass didn't clean the dome of the propagator, so the seeds had way too less light and they grew a bit too tall. 2. I transplanted them into the autopots way too early since I didn't read the full manual that's online. So far I am impressed by the stable genetics. Popped a few more Humboldt seeds for customers and I have a 100% germination rate so far. All plants are in 15L pots (3 in autopots), housed in a Homebox Ambient 120R. Lights used are 2 linked Mars Hydro TS 1000 (2x150w) dimmed to ~25%. I did a full watering of every pot with the whole Biotabs scheme, so no watering for the next ~2 weeks. I'll keep you guys updated!

They survived the nutrient burn pretty well that they got from early transplanting. All have been connected to the autopot tank. The Mango Sherbet has been topped, the Apple Blossom and one OCP have been mainlined. Especially the Apple Blossom is growing like hell. Never had better genetics so far. Even though I topped/mainlined them there hasn't been any slow down or still stand in growth at all. Also I've connected the pump to the airdomes on the first 3 in the lower row as the leaves already reached the edges of the pots.

Nothing new, things just keep rolling. The AB has already been topped twice. I decided to get the OCP with only one branch left through, that will probably teach me more than the other easy going ones. Pics had been taken at d26.

Wow, was für ein Equipment! Hast du extra angebaut oder ein paar Zimmer übrig? 😉 Deine Infos über den Zustand der Samen finde ich bemerkenswert. 👍 Ich wünsch dir viel Freude beim wachsensehen. 😀

All have popped aaaaaand *drums wooshing* I fucked up a bit. After I transformed the EZs into small pots (screw my impatient ass!) already I left the cloudy dome on the propagator that night. They grew too long (in Germany we say Spargeln and that's fucking cute), but I still got one transplantation left anyway.

After 60h 6/7 seeds have popped with already pretty long tails. Only the Poddy Mouth is late for the fest.

Hey fellow growers! We're two German dudes writing a double diary since we make a parallel run. After several years of outdoor growing I decided to start my first indoor run. As soon as the seeds sprouted I'll have them in a propagator under a dimmed Mars Hydro TS-1000. 3 seedlings gonna be transplanted in 15L autobots, 3 in regular pots. Nutrition and fertilization with Biotabs and change to 100w going up to 260w in the upcoming weeks. We're planning to veg for 4-6w, doing tie down lst, topping and defoliation. All plants will flower at home. 3 in a Homebox R120 with Sanlight Evo 4 120, the other ones under the Mars Hydro TF 1000 in a 80x80 zelsius tent.

Good luck with your grow bro! I hope you germinate every single one of these bad boys!

@Cannabal, germinationrate of 100%, mostly in less than 36h, I am really impressed. Based on that experience I had to place an order for a load of seeds for our shop^^

Sorry for the 2 weeks of silence, I had way too much to do at the shop. Luckily I got a new employee who seems to be the golden ticket. But that's something else. All have developed unbelievably fast. Its very nitpicky, but they grow so strong that I have trouble with LST. Also mainlining wasn't planned (that early) after all, but after I topped the Apple Blossom I ripped of both branches on the node below with my clumsy little fingers. :') I was totally worried until I found out I just did mainlining. Phew! Currently I am thinking about flipping them with a few days between each planned (luckily I got two grow boxes), that I can continuously harvest one and put one new in. With 6 plants fitting in the flowering tent that should be possible, I guess. But I'll have some more thoughts on that subject and wanna wait for some advice before I do something stoopid.^^
