GrowerBaal Super Strains offered me the chance to choose a strain from them and then write a diary about it. Due to the weather conditions and lack of space, it got a bit delayed, but I'm fulfilling my promise here.
The seed will be soaked again for 12 to 18 hours and then goes straight into the substrate (Plagron Light-Mix) in a 4L pot. I'm still considering the nutrients.
I filled the 4L pot with Plagron Light Mix and added about half a liter of water. I placed a soaked coconut plug in the middle of the pot and drilled a 1 cm deep hole. I buried the seed there and filled the hole. In the end, I put a plastic dome over it. The rest has to do its thing for now. 😎
After a week, nothing has happened yet. I've moistened it twice now and will wait until next weekend at most; then I would plant a new seed.
On July 22, I started watering the second seed. Hopefully, I'll have better luck this time. After about 18 hours of soaking, I buried the seed in a 1 cm deep hole.
August 8. All good things come in threes. I'm trying something a bit different and mixed 1ml of 12% hydrogen peroxide with 5ml of water and let the seed soak in it for about 12 hours. I also replaced the soil with new one.

Finally, a seedling has shown up. This wasn't really an experiment, but the hydrogen peroxide definitely doesn't seem to have harmed it. Maybe I should always do it this way.
Day 3 - 4.5 cm
Today I measured 4.5 cm in height. Since I won't have time tomorrow, I gave it 100 ml of tap water today. I left the plastic dome on for now.
Day 5 - 6 cm
Today it reached 6 cm in height. I removed the dome today.
Day 7 - 6.5 cm
The next pair of leaves isn't really forming. Maybe it was too dry without the dome? Anyway, I put the dome back on for now.
Additionally, I gave it 150 ml of tap water today.

GrowerBaal Day 9
The second pair of leaves has developed a bit, but it's a little stunted. It seems it was really too dry. I gave it 50 ml of tap water today and removed the plastic dome since the first pair of leaves got too big for it.
Day 10 - 6.5
The second pair of leaves has grown a bit. I gave it another 50 ml of tap water today.
Day 12 - 7cm
The second pair of leaves is slowly developing. We'll see how it goes from here.
Day 14 - 7 cm
It seems to be slowly turning around. Yesterday (Day 13) I gave it about 50 ml of tap water.

The third pair of leaves has formed, but it's very uneven. I hope it sorts itself out.
Otherwise, I gave her about 100 ml of tap water yesterday (Day 16) and today. I haven't quite decided when I'll repot her.
Tag 20 - 9 cm
She's slowly picking up speed, but she's still a bit stunted. 😂 The third pair of leaves isn't a pair but just a single leaf. She'll probably get water tomorrow.
Tag 21 - 10 cm
Today she got 100 ml of lukewarm tap water. I think I'll repot her the day after tomorrow.

Today she was repotted. She went into a 15L fabric pot with Plagron Light Mix. I decided to try an organic solid fertilizer from Neudorff this time, after it was recommended to me by a friend. According to the instructions, you should use 25 to 50g per pepper plant, so I just tried 60g and mixed it into the soil (so 4g/l), plus I added some extra mycorrhiza.
Once she was in her new pot, she needed to be watered. I gave her 2.5L of tap water at 23.4 degrees from the bowl and 2.5L from above onto the soil.
Additionally, she got a new home; she’s now in a 150x80x220 Vivosun tent with Vivosun lighting and control. She will stay on 18/6 for a few more days, then she will be switched to flowering.
Tag 26 - 15 cm
She handled the repotting well and is now 15 cm tall. Today I switched the lighting to 12/12.

I actually wanted to continue the diary yesterday, but the site was unusable last night and later I just lost interest.
Yesterday, she received 4.4 liters of tap water, which I lowered the pH to 6.6. She got 2.4 liters from a bowl and 2 liters poured directly onto the soil.
Overall, she looks healthy and so far she proves that you don't have to throw away photos just because there are problems at the beginning. Autos would probably look quite different in that regard. She may lag a bit behind in terms of normal growth, but not significantly.
