GrowerBaal Since I'm a bit bored right now and have to wait at least a week for various reasons before starting a new grow, I've come up with something. I'm letting you choose which autoflowering strain I'll grow next. I've picked seven strains, and you can write in the comments below which one interests you the most. Next weekend, I'll draw the conclusion and determine the strain with the most interest. The other strains will then be deleted from the diary, and the selected strain will be grown as soon as possible, although I can't predict an exact start date yet. It will be grown in soil of about 11 to 15 liters and probably with long-term tomato fertilizer.
The options are:
1. Strawberry Milk and Quookies F2 (Nightowl seeds)
2. Purple Thai Auto (Ethos Genetics)
3. Ak Full Auto (Sumo Seeds)
4. French Macaron (T.H.Seeds)
5. Moscow Blueberry Auto (Klashnikov Seeds)
6. Auto King Kong (Dr. Underground)
7. Watermelonium Auto (Butterbean Birdseed)
Maybe this format will catch on, and we could do it more often. I'm curious to see what you think.
Current status 10/23:
1. Strawberry ... x2
2. Purple Thai x2
4. French Macaron x2
6. Auto King Kong x1
Three strains are tied for first place. But there are still two days left.
10/25/26 It has remained at three first places. This is a bit inconvenient, as I only want to start 2 seeds to give each plant its space.
I will start 1. SMQ and 2. Purple Thai in the next few days (probably tomorrow). 4. French Macaron and 6. Auto King Kong (one vote) will be grown when the first two are done. I hope that works for everyone. This will be the SMQ diary, and a Purple Thai diary will be opened later. After this, the seeds will soak in their H2O2 solution.
Grow
I filled 15L fabric pots with Plagron Light Mix and mixed in 63g of Neudorff tomato fertilizer.
Afterwards, the seed will be soaked in a 2% H2O2 solution for 12 to 18 hours, and then it will go into the pot tomorrow morning. I will also soak a coconut plug and pull the coconut out of the "stocking," placing it in a hole in the middle of the pot. The seed will ultimately go into this coconut at about 1 cm depth.
Now the seed is also in the hydrogen peroxide solution. Tomorrow it will go into its pot.
The seed was buried in the pot after about 14 hours of soaking. Before that, I had watered the soil with about 3 liters.
The lamp is set to 25% and about 50 cm above the pots.
Now it's time to wait.

GrowerBaal Day 1 - 0 cm
Yesterday evening, you could already tell she’d break through the surface today. It took her about 90 hours in total from planting the seed. A few people on Reddit said the seeds probably had trouble germinating, but I can’t confirm that.
I need to keep an eye on whether she can shed the seed shell on her own or if I’ll need to help her.
In the end, I removed the seed shell.
Day 2 - 5.5 cm
She stretched a lot too. I’ve now turned the light up from 25% to about 33%.
Day 4 - 7 cm
She kept stretching, although more slowly. The light is now set to about 50%.😮
Day 6 - 7 cm
She’s stopped stretching now that I turned up the ventilation and lowered the light a bit again to 40%. The dome is still on because the tent is dry.

GrowerBaal Tag 8 - 8 cm
Heute gab es 2 Liter Wasser mit 23,1 Grad und 1,3 ml Silic Rock.
Da das zweite Blattpaar noch nicht wirklich gut entwickelt ist und es im Zelt sehr trocken ist, lasse ich die Plastikkuppel noch drüber.
Tag 10 - 5 cm
Ich habe sie heute mit einem Bodenanker nach unten gebunden.
Zudem gab es 300 lauwarmes Leitungswasser. Die Kuppel bleibt noch bis morgen, denke ich.
Tag 12 - 4 cm
Gestern nahm ich die Kuppel ab.
@Natrona
, Interesting. But i did not word my question well.
I wrote about this diary here. Of this seven strains only one or two will been grown in this diary, you can vote which strain.
Here's the top three that would interest me! A lot of nice ones to choose from.
1. Purple Thai (Ethos)
2. Moscow Blueberry (Klashnikov)
3. Strawberry Milk & Quookies F2 (Nightowl)
