It's still cold in Germany and Starting indoor wss the plan. I started 6 seeds of this strain, all of them germinated well, 2 had a helmet issue but overall, they had a great start and it took them 24-48 hours to show up.
It's my first grow after a long break and the availability of grow supply was limited in Germany during spring. I was late to the party and decided to go the oldschool route, just using the available.
In my case It's been 11litre plastic pods from 20 year ago. One of the pots said mazar 2003, so that's probably what was in there back then.
I was stupidly unpatient enough to wait for availability of proper soil, I ended up with a cheap and crappy dirt from a local store.
I mixed it with some coco i had left from building jungle terrarium backwalls. In other words, I used the junk I had around the house.
First week was fun and I was quite impatient.
We had some warmer days but I had them under led panels. You guessed it, led panels I had lying around the house. In my case 3 50rs by gvm - these are made for video and filmmaking, not for growing Cannabis. But light is light to some extent and it's only meant to be supportive in case of bad outdoor circumstances like rain or cold or missing light hours. I used 1 of the panels in week 1 and a little bit of sunlight.
I used 4 of the 6 for some experiments, these are not part of this review (still 6/6 germination rate speeks for the seeds), however we go on with 2 keepers that performed best. These 2 started in 11l pots directly.
No nutriants. No ph metering (tab water is 8.2, which i didn't know back then). Probably overwatered the pots also
Plants didn't care and grew.
