GothBotanical I started my indoor run on August 10, 2025 by soaking Blue Bitch, Oracle OG, and what I initially thought was Cheese in RO water with a splash of hydrogen peroxide overnight to soften the shells and reduce pathogens. The next morning (August 11), I transferred them to the paper towel method on top of my Wi-Fi router for gentle warmth.
I realized that cheese was an autoflower and so i replaced it with Strawberry Cola Sherbert, which went straight into the paper towel.
By the night of August 11, all seeds had shown taproots — with Strawberry Cola Sherbet (which replaced the mislabeled Cheese) managing to sprout a taproot after only about 12 hours in the baggie.
I planted each seed into clear solo cups filled with seed starter mix, nested inside red solo cups to protect the roots from light. These cup sets sit in 1-gallon Velcro pots filled with Stonington Blend soil for easy upgrades later. The seedlings broke the surface in this order: Blue Bitch on August 13, Oracle OG on the morning of August 14, and Strawberry Cola Sherbet on the evening of August 14. All three are now officially in early seedling stage under my indoor setup.

GothBotanical The photos transitioned out of germination this week and officially entered veg on August 20th. All three — Blue Bitch, Oracle OG, and Strawberry Cola Sherbert — have established themselves well after sprouting on August 12th. They’ve put out their first sets of true leaves and are showing steady daily growth. Blue Bitch is clearly the most vigorous, with Oracle OG not far behind, while Strawberry Cola Sherbert is keeping a slower but healthy pace.
Humidity domes were removed early in the week once the leaves expanded, and the seedlings adjusted well to open-air conditions. Temps stayed in the high 70s with humidity around 60%, which kept them comfortable. I’ve been watering lightly with plain RO water to maintain moisture in the final pots without oversaturating the soil.
August 21st I transplanted the photoperiods out of their Solo cups and into 1-gallon pots. Roots were already circling the edges of the cups, so the timing felt right. The move went smoothly — no stress or droop, and each plant perked back up quickly in their new homes. Watered lightly around the root zone with plain RO to help them settle in. Excited to see how they stretch out now that they’ve got more space to grow.
