DapperDabber In the shot glass till I wake up. I'll be trying out some tall 2 gallon containers for a while until I transplant into the 5x5 tent. I prepared a mix of pro-mix, gaia green all purpose & gaia green bloom. As well I added bio-char, insect frass & granular humic acids.
The pots are soaking right now, I'll drop the seeds in the soil come sunrise. I have the four A100 aerolights i can choose from to support them. I'll be happily surprised if all 5 germinate, I've prepared for it just in case.

DapperDabber Well I'm pleasantly surprised! At least 4 of the 5 have poked their heads up!
I think it's worth mentioning after Sensi Seeds found out about my poor germination rate they reached out and offered to help.
That's a big positive for Sensi in my book, as customer support is crucial in this market.
I decided to fully remove the previous stumps, and I have GENEROUSLY top dressed with both Gaia Greens Grow and Bloom as well as some Bio-Char and a little extra gypsum.
I hesitantly but ultimately tilled the first 2-3 inches to massage the top dress in. I was stoked to see so many worms! I'm sure I've hurt quite a few while tilling :(
The good news is the whole top layer looked and felt like pure worm castings! That's why I decided I didn't need to top dress in worm castings (my plan from the beginning!) although I'm considering getting the wiggle worms bag that has worm eggs in it for the halfway-mark top dressing.
To help replenish what I damaged during tilling.
I germinated the seeds in these tall 2 gallon pots. My thought process was to allow the taproot to grow uninhibited even if I disturb it during transplant. The pots are nearly as tall as the 40 gallon pots. I do not plan to transplant at the full depth of the pots but instead I will transplant while the root mass is infantile and saturate the taproot root with rootwise microbe complete. I want to leave as much below the surface undisturbed as I can.
I'm excited to absolutely fill out the 5x5 with huge nugs. It's been 3 harvests since I've run a photoperiod strain. I want to get a bunch of OG strains under my belt and they're all photos.
The 5x5 can support absolute monsters.
Thanks for tuning in! Take care my growmies!
