DapperDabber Even though I haven't gotten ridden of all the fungus gnats I feel confident they're on their way out and I'm getting impatient 😀
Four Northern Light Automatic from Sensi Seeds were sown in a diamond pattern in the 65 Gallon pot. After sowing and watering with "Real Growers: Recharge" I put a mason jar on top of them and covered the rest of the surface with an inch or so layer of rice hulls (I have a lot leftover from soil building so pretty convenient!)
I haven't had any luck with Sensi Seeds in general so far, but I'm hopeful. My previous attempt with them had two purple bud auto and two Northern lights automatic fail to germinate, at least with my natural oriented methods.
I will baby a vigorous plant, but If a seed won't germinate in the luscious environment I've provided, It's not worth my time.

DapperDabber I forgot to update with my 5x5 last week so I'll have another update tomorrow.
Only one popped up continuing my poor luck with Sensi Seeds.
She looks a little deformed which is a reoccurring theme with the Sensi Seeds I've had that germinated. Could be a bad luck streak.

DapperDabber It seems she's taken off quite vigorously. She hasn't been watered since the soil has been initially mixed and it might be time soon considering her growth. I'm happy to see one of the Northern Lights made it, I'd like to get quite a few different breeders under my belt.

DapperDabber While this Northern lights from Sensi Seeds may have been the sole survivor, she's impressively vigorous! I began sub irrigation this week, being the first watering since sowing with real Growers Recharge. I have some small lights that came with my mini tent under the canopy hoping to encourage lateral branching. I've never used under canopy lighting before because of irrigation complications but with sub-irrigation it seems a non issue.
Continuing on with my personal "overkill" method i lowered the lights as well. The light is on 24/7 maybe I should do some calculation on DLI but my intention is to push the lighting hard with organic inputs in an oversized container. I'll probably refer to it as Living Soil Over-Kill maybe LSOK for short. I like the idea of pushing genetics to their potential limits under organic practices.

DapperDabber She is filling in quite nicely! I began trellis training as the flower stretch appeared to begin. This is most likely the last week of veg as the nodes are getting the dense swell of flower setting!
I have continued to bottom watered exclusively (so far 3 times or so via flooding the bottom of the tent)
Now that her flowers are setting and the fungus gnats have been defeated she'll probably get a thorough top watering with recharge and big 6.
I'm happy to see success on one of the sensi seeds. Their northern lights appear to be one of their most popular strains so I have a bit of hope for the last 4 seeds of NL from Sensi. I'll be starting them soon outside of tents in 10 Gallons because I love having a full garden ☺️
Thanks for tuning in, I'll be back next week! Hopefully we get to see some NL flowers by then🤞
