MalumProhibitum It's time :)
I think the postmaster was angry the day of delivery as it turns out the package was pressed into the slit of my postbox with such force the seed capsule was crushed so violently, I could see marks on the little white lid; who normally seals the container shut. Fortunately the seeds were still rolling about in the broken package and only one of the seeds had been nicked, and was missing a tiny bit of it's shell.
As I had already a freebie monster maker I just moved the 4x seeds into the freebie container; problem solved.
If I see the dude who delivers post, i'll tell it to unlock my postbox if the package being delivered is bigger than a thin letter, fcking low iQ brute xD
I dropped the nicked seed into soil, and added another pristine seed to the soil too, in case the injured one wouldn't succeed in germinating.
I took an extra step, washing and microwaving a fist full of soil before adding the injured seed to make sure no bugs/germs/fungi would mess with the seed the first week.
The tip/side of the cotyledons was missing as the seedling came up, but the true leaves looks ok! --Monster-warrior-princess :)
Running them under the 5W LED 24h light first week, maybe second week too, depending how things develop. No space to park them in the grow-room just yet.
Plan is to VEG them for 2-3 weeks + germination week, so a total of 1 month veg, then flip em, and hopefully by then I have harvested all the chilies & strawberries, collected seeds and composted them all, to leave some room for the real-deal! xD
Week 1 done, they are a bit leggy but that's expected, given they have shared a 5W LED for 4-5 days. I kinda prefer a 10cm leggy seedling over a broad-leaf 2-3cm one, where the leaves have a tendency to touch the soil, get dirty and shieeet.
MalumProhibitum Uneventful week.
They look a bit stressed out as I have moved them into the flower room, but as they havn't expressed any irreversible tissue-dmg I just keep blasting.
I could move them a bit further from the lights, but I like the bushy/stout; but droopy-shape they have right now and want to prevent them from stretching.
The yellow tone in the new growth looks allmost the same as new growth when flipped to flower/12-12 light.
I'll keep cooking them for a bit longer as the development looks ok.
I noticed some subtle nitrogen-claws on some of the fan-leaves, while simultaniously the off-yellowing on other leaves, leading me to believe it's light related.
Going from 5W to 50W might be a contributing factor :)
All plants are going hard a.f. I think I'll let them VEG this week and the next, giving them a total of 3 weeks VEG+Germination week.
So.. 28 days after seeds arrived they should be ready for FLOWER phase :)
As PurplePunch OG is 7 days behind I'll move her during dark hours to kitchen 5W LED; extending VEG 1 week and let her catch up.
Gave them a final watering of HEAVY-VEG NPK 3.3:1:2 2liter TDS:869mg/l.

MalumProhibitum I moved the pot to the background as the leaves showed signs of not being able to keep up with the intense light, leaves slightly droopy and a slight discoloration into a subtle yellow.
As they are recovering in the back the Scs-F1's had to move slightly forward, further increasing the intensity of the lights, but neither of them seems to be bothered by it, they just keep growing.
I might have pushed N a bit too far, slight clawing; not good this close to flipping to flower..
