, what i'm atempt to do, its not exectly what that guy did. My idea is to let the roots grow in to a hollow space of up side down basins - no substrat in it, just an air. But for to keep this hollow space at high humidity and to prevent the roots to sit straight in the drained water, i think to put some clay pebbels at the bottom. So it will be a sort of organic airoponics...

GreenCrack#1 and SantaMartaHaze#2 are rocking. Explosive root growth! The roots brake out the SmartPots from the bottom and sides. I think to buy few dark colored plastic basins with same diameter as the SmartPots 33cm, make some holes in a bottom, to let the roots grow through it, put them up side down and sit on them the SmartPots. What do you think about this idea?

@Cultus
, 35% its OK. If you cut whole the plant, without triming leafs, with temps 20-22*C it will dry for a month, untill you'll heare the "crack" of stems, may be more. But bud mold and decomposition of organic material take a place as well. The lower humidity and higher temps - the dry is faster. Fast dry, - means no bud mold, less organic decomposition, unless you dry in real high temps, like 40*C and higher. Curing its another story, apesialy with miron glass jars and boveda, minimal organic decomposition and stable humitity alows you to provide maximum convertion of cannabinods to THC. Its realy high quality stuff! You can cure it for two - three month in that conditions! Tanks to Bulbi i've lerned somthig new today...

For example i will take out another one BCNPowerPlant and try to germinate it in tap water to see whats happening and may be to replace the SantaMartaHaze#1 wich is almost dead.

@Mrs_Larimar
, yes the watering amount is correct

, as i told you i've surch the web very good to get any info about germination. Another thing i've never tryed is to presoak seeds in a spesial germination solution. After the web resurch i found folowing solutions: Plagron SeedBooster, Canna Start, BAC Xseeds(mineral so its not for me, - i am organic grower), GO BioRootsPlus(organic). Unfortunately only Canna Start is aviable in my country, as well its not exactly seed presoak its a solution for seedlings and clons

, i am not a noobe in this buisness. I've surch the web for to long and i know every single germinating method, and i've tryed them all with no sucsess. The only thing i've never tryed is to presoak seeds in a tap water or to add to the water hydrogen peroxide.

, BCNPowerPlant, SantaMartaHaze, DurbanPoison and GreenCrack from LindaSeeds. BlueDream'matic i get from Fast Buds directly. BCNPowerPlant is the most underrated - 16 seeds - 1 germinated. DurbanPoison and GreenCrack are the champions - all of the seeds germinated sucssessfuly within 72 houers.

, i've surch the web for to long and i know every single germination method and i've tryed it all with no sucssess - seeds get open (if get open) then stun and rot. Not all of them of cource, you can see 9 plants in my tent. But to get this 9 plants i needed to waist 30 seeds! Got damn it...

Finaly i found the true reason for my stuning plants. Sorry for to blame the breaders for unstable genetics... Nobudys fault but mine! I use resiceled soil and the pots was standing outside under the rain for a few months one on another. The upper pots get flushed correctly, but those wich was under, get the doble portion of old nutrients... I am such an...😳

The last picture looks like phosphor deficiency. According to what you've mentioned about slow matuer its looks that what is it. To solve the problem you need to adjust the pH to 6.2 and give them some phosphor rich fertilizer.

To my opinion the best organic nutrients are GO Bio line: BioThrive grow&bloom, BioRootsPlus, BioBud, Urtica, BioWorms. And as a benifical bacteria and fungi - Dr. Earth 69 metabolic transformer. Unfortunatly in my country i just can't get all this. Still looking for it to buy from web but 6-7 kilo parcel it cost to much for shipping and can get no pass by customs. I use reciceled soil after remove a root ball and good wash, i don't add anything to it. The soil mix is 60% peeat moss, 10% perlight, 30% coco. If i would have Dr. Earth 69MT i should add it to the soil mix and some Azomite as well. This two things are perfectly rechurge your soil, as long as Dr.Earth69MT contains not only benifical microbes and fungi, but allso Ingredients: Aloe vera concentrate, yucca schidigera extract, kelp meal, seaweed extract, fish bone meal and earthworm castings. Contains Non-Plant Food Ingredient: 10% Humic Acid (derived from leonardite) 9% Hemp Protein Amino Acids 8% Brown Rice Carbohydrates 8% Whole Wheat Carbohydrates 8% Soy Flour Amino Acids 4% Black Strap Molasses 3% Whey Protein Also contains a long list (too long to mention here) of beneficial soil bacteria and mycorrhizae fungi. And all this goods have an OMRI sertificat.

, its all right when you dealing with fresh stock seeds and stable genetics. But when you've got bad seeds its got rotten no matter what you do. I've tryed every germination methods: 24 howers presoak in water, than plant them in Jiffy7; put them in plastic box with papper towel, plant them staight in the soil... Nothing seamed to help much. The only thing i didn't try is to presoak them in tap water, couse its full of chlorine, fluoride and other shit. But may be chlorine and fluoride its good for seedlings becouse it kills any bacteria?... Next round i will try that, but allso i will buy some germination solution, something like CannaStart or Plagron SeedBooster or BAC Xseeds.

Well 1 BCNPowerPlant pump out. Another one and 1 BlueDream'matic will pump out in the next few days. Haleluya!!! And i finaly found the ultimate germination nutrien - BioBizz Acti-Vera! When you dealing with very old stock seeds, that was stored in a deep freazer, in the couse of defrost and tuff delivery conditions they lose its amio-acids and vitamins. As well the hardness of shell makes it hard to water to penetrate it. So first of all i scared the seeds with sand papper than put them in glass of RO water with pH 6.5 with BioRhizotonic, Acti-Vera, VoodooJuies, Tarantula & B-52. Acti-Vera & B-52 recharge the seeds with vitamins and amino-acids. BioRhizotonic, VoodooJuies & Tarantula provide the faster growth. So from now i will use Acti-Vera in my every growth.
