This will be my first time to grow from seed to harvest/ pheno hunt. I am only popping 3 due to plant limits. I soaked them for 24 hours in distilled water, all 3 had cracked and started showing tap root. Now in paper towels for 24 hours, next I'll plant them in plastic cups 1/4" deep in a 50/50 mix of coco and happy frog with the first watering of plain distilled water.

End of week 1, 2 of the 3 popped and are looking good. Kept the light about 6 inches above and the nodes are stacking close. The 3rd had problems with the first set of leaves and never took off, going to give it a day or 2. They are in coco/happy frog 50/50 mix. I watered around day 6 with just distilled water.

Day 14.. number 3 didn't make it so I prepped another that is now in soil. I raised the 48w t5 a bit more and water around every 6th day with distilled water. Nice distance between nodes and they are growing nicely.

Bean 3 didn't make it so I popped 2 more. Bean 1 and 2 will be sex tested by next update. Other than that, just watering with 1 ml cal mag per bottle of distilled water when dry.

And then there were 3. Had 1 and 2 tested, 1 was a female!! 50/50 isn't bad, will test the last 2 in the next week or so. Other than that, I topped 1 on the 6th node and just watering all when dry.
