Rooty-tooty, fresh and fruity!

FRIDAY 2/15: I started soaking 3 x Tangi'matic seeds this evening. If all goes well, I'll FIM one and leave the others alone. I plan to hit them with reds much earlier than normal..I want to let them stretch up to 4 feet if possible. I need many "bushels" of tangerines to ward off the summertime scurvy!😁 SATURDAY: Only one of them sunk, but a tap sent the other two to the bottom. I'm almost 2 full weeks behind schedule already, so I'd like these bitches to pop and get on with it.😀 I intend to give the seedlings mostly blue and cool white light for a week, but will set the big blurple to dose them for an hour at a time, 8 hours per day for a week or so. Then I'll swap out the blue panels and blue miracleLED's with red panels and red miracleLED's and kick on the 3 COB's and QB to run with the blurple for 20-ish hours per day. The goal being to try and get a little more height out of them before I move them into the primary tent this time. This strain and the others I'm growing this time around are all purported to reach 120-140cm, and I'd like to achieve that ..at a minimum.😁 SUNDAY: One bean just won't sink..guess it's bad. The other two are cracked open now. MONDAY: The two that cracked open stuck their tongue out at me, so I planted them in rockwool cubes. The other bean is still floating and hasn't cracked...😕 TUESDAY: Nothing new... WEDNESDAY: Nope...not yet. THURSDAY: Still nothing good to report...the floater finally sunk, but hasn't cracked, and neither of the two I planted have emerged. SATURDAY: Both planted Tangies emerged this morning! I went ahead and stuck the dud in a cube too..maybe it will surprise me... SUNDAY: Both seedlings are looking good, but still no sign of the 3rd one..
