420_TRON the germination went well, i stated with putting the seed in a small cup of water with PH of about 6.7.
2 days later the seed's shell started to open and another day after a white tip was starting to show.
i then transplanted the germinated seed to a cup filled with fluffy soil, about 1~2cm deep and covered lightly with soil (without pressing the soil down on top of the seed).
about 2 days later it sprouted :)

420_TRON overall baby is doing well, she had a little accident.. she grew faster than i anticipated and ran into the plastic dome which made her droop a little, but a few days later she was okay :)
420_TRON baby is getting bigger and stronger, i keep on bending her over about once every other day and did a minor defoliation. i'll probably top her next week or the one after it.
the current objective is to keep her as low as possible while letting her do her own thing and occupy as much area as possible
sorry for the blurple pics 🙈
420_TRON this week i also removed some of the lower branches that didn't reach the canopy, this allowed me to see the stem (which got pretty thick!) tried to capture it in the photos but didn't really get it 🙃
looks like my little baby will soon be ready to enter flowering
i switched my grow panels to two 30 dorra lights from AliEx (100Wx2) just to see if other expensive panels justify their price (experiment)

420_TRON baby is healthy and is still growing nicely :)
420_TRON buds are starting to get heavier, trichomes are developing well, most are still clear.
according to MoC info this strain flowering time should be 8 weeks, but i think baby has at least 2 more weeks to go.
420_TRON after a week long flush & 3 days in the dark my baby was cut down.
about 330g wet, after wet trimming.
nice solid buds with great smell, will update with dry weight and taste after dry & cure.
already have 2 mature clones waiting to get into the grow space :)
@kansasscott725,thanks buddy! i don't do foliar feeding other than misting plain tap water on the leaves a few times a day to keep the humidity high enough
Great looking grow man and some crazy training, any chance for a write-up or references on the LST methods you used?
Just from the pictures, it looks like you pulled down the main stem to be parallel with the soil and let all (most? some?) of the growth tips grow into full branches, but this strain is so bushy it's hard to really tell. Would love to know more for my own MoC Northern Lights grow 😁
@420_TRON, wow thanks so much for the writeup & diagram! That's way more than I could've asked for 👏
I'll definitely be trying this for my next grow, looks like your yield will be insane
@humblefrog, thanks a lot :)
i've added a simple drawing to the 20th week i hope it will help, some explanation:
1. wait until the plant is mature enough for training
2. i personally LSTed my baby on week 5 i think, the purpose here is to align all nodes to about the same height because future branches will emerge from each node
very important to tie the main stem in the opposite direction of the training (to prevent from the plant's roots from rising out of the medium
3. keep on training for as long as you like (considering the available space & time you are willing to let her grow and develop more branches)
defoliation is key for letting light into the canopy
4. once the desired amount of branches reached, top the main stem, this will make the plant put more work into the branches we trained so far, making them the new "mains"
some weaker or less developed branches should be cut down as well, try to favorite the most strong ones, the cuttings can be used as clones for next runs
5. let the branches develop until they each have at least 5-7 nodes, then it's safe to flip to flower
i hope my drawings are clear enough good luck with your grow!!
