Hello, this will be my second grow of this fabolous strain. Due to numerous circumstances , i havent been able to document the first one.
It is a shame really, as it was super exciting and succesfull first attempt. This site and diaries of many growers helped me in previous journey so i want to return the favor (and to be completely honest, keep a neat diary for future reference).
Germinated under 48 hours using wet (demineralized water) paper towel method.
One remark; i am using a 100W led system (6400k), but the drop down menu only lists 150W as a minimum.
In that regard; lets go !
Update;
This little one has broken to the surface in a couple of days before but as it can be seen, not much has happened since then.
I wanted to wait a couple of days to see if the shell would shed off but as of today; this has not happened .
As i recall, in my first grow the shell pretty much came off during the surfacing so in my, still limited, knowledge i would appreciate some input on this (not very good) situation.
In the worst case scenario; yesterday I have started to germinate an additional seed.
Update 2:
Unfortunately my suspicions were true. The first germinated seed died. While i was waiting for the second seed to germinate i got an idea to plant the third one in the pot for direct germination in soil.
Im going to fill another smaller pot with soil for the other one germinated with "paper towel method" to see how the two of them will make it.

Update 3: Finally some good news ! The 2nd seed germinated with the paper towel method has made it ! This time i used plain warm water and forgot about it so the taproot before planting was longer. I would say it roughly took 3 days after dropping it in soil to shed its shell and say "hello".
The other seed which was planted (in previous used, 12l pot) direct in soil; its shell is slowly emerging. Hopefully it will also crack and then i will post some pix as well.
Both were watered daily (spray can 2 times per day) with warm plain water. "Germination light"; led bulb 9W 3000k used for keeping the temperature warm.
Im still busting up my brain why the first one did not make it, eventhough all 3 germinated sucessfully,
Me too ! I suppose it will always be a reassuring first sight.
Appreciate the wishes and i will do my best to employ my previous experience to see this grow through (and to gather new knowledge in the process i hope.) @@WisdomCulture420,
@EZgrower, Yes i am new on growdiaries. Up until now i have been only studying other peoples diaries.
Thank you and i appreciate the following. I will do the same.👍
Hello friend. How are you? I haven't written to you in a long time. Do you still smoke the buds from the last harvest? I'm running out of staff.
I've started a new cycle, check it out!
Update; after my led system settled in, i have made extensive precise temperature measurement for the day temperature which is 23 C
I will make the necessary update on week two for both day and night temperature and post new pics as soon as she pops out from the soil.
