Seed was put in a glass of water on the 2nd of January 20:00 (8PM). Around 15h later it sunk to the bottom and I transferred it to a wet paper towel inside a zip. Around 51h later (so ~36h inside zip) the seed had not yet opened. I am a little worried, but at the same time not because I've looked up what the pro's say and some of them don't even look at the seed until after the seed has spent at least 48h inside the paper towel. I will be patient and wait for the seed to open. After the seed has opened I will be even more patient and let the root grow for a bit. I have grown 2 of these plants in my lifetime and first time was really good, second time was very bad, and the second time I planted it when the root was ~1mm long. I will not rush things this time. I will also be careful to not let the root grow too long. If I'll have it my way, then I'll be planting this baby tomorrow evening, so in a bit less than 24h from now. If I have to reschedule then it will probably be planted on the 6th of January. Worst case scenario: We have to restart with a new seed. Bless you.
Update 5 Jan 2022 17:29 (05:29 PM): We have a root! The seed has opened ever so slightly and the root has grown more and more during today. I want the root to grow a tiny bit longer before I plant it. I will take another look before bedtime.
Update 5 Jan 2022 20:43 (08:43 PM): Root has not grown much since the last picture, will plant tomorrow.
Update 6 Jan 2022 10:05 (10:05 AM): Will plant later. Root is too short.
Update 6 Jan 2022 15:00 (03:00 PM): Root is still shorter than I had in mind but my patience has ran out and I think it is still a fine length for the seed to do really good. I also have very good soil for her with claimed great amount of nutrients for seedlings. When it gets large enough I will transplant her to a 11L pot. The 11L pot has been filled with more than 11L soil. Probably around 15L.
By the way, the plant has a name, her name is "Satan" but is referred to as a "she".
Update 12 Jan 2022 18:00 (06:00 PM): We have a sprout! I saw the sprout some hours ago. I am sure that I planted the seed quite perfectly in the middle. However, the sprout happened very much to the side. I suspect that there was something in the soil that might blocked the sprout.
So far it looks like we planted Satan on the 6th of January and we got a sprout on the 12th. I will consider Satan to be in germination stage until it grows a little more. Then I will treat it like she's in the vegetative phase.
-----------------------------
SUMMARY: Day 1-21 in Satans life has been so wonderful. Not a minute goes by without me feeling euphoric about her. Every day when I wake up I go to the grow-room and tell her good morning. I hold her largest leaf between my thumb and index-fingers to hold leaf (hold hand) and we just hold leaf together for a few seconds while I admire her beauty. She is so absolutely gorgeous and kind and she is also very happy with her environment. I already have another plant in another grow-room which also is a Northern Lights and I have kept a diary of her as well, just not on growdiaries.com (everything is kept in a Word-document). This other plant is called Kim, named after Kim Jong-Un. Kim and her diary is going to be utilized as a "roadmap" for Satan, so I should know what to expect and when to expect it. I also did a few mistakes with Kim, such as water too much or let her grow with way too much nitrogen in the air. Satan will instead be the best grow I have ever done - hopefully. I thank you all for reading and joining me on this adventure. Kim and Satan says hello!

D13 - BOOM! The new #1 had made her modest appearance. Only the top of the seed is visible so far, but it's a start. :)
#2 is moving along nicely, quietly doing her thing.
D14 - #1 is still shy and hasn't fully emerged yet, but she is at least poking up more than yesterday, so there's progress at least.
#2 is doing great, and I like her structure. Short and stout with large leaves and very short internodal spacing. She is 7 cm tall but already 11 cm wide.
I also cut back the cover crop as it was getting a bit wild and partly overshadowed the girls.
Since starting the grow, I have yet to water the girls properly, but they did get a little bit a couple of days ago when I had some extra after watering nematodes (against fungus gnats) to our regular houseplants. Better to be proactive than reactive ;)
D15 - I started a simple compost tea consisting of worm casting, rock dust, algal limestone, bentonite, biochar, and molasses. I'll leave it brewing overnight, and then it's watering/feeding time tomorrow.
D17 - No idea what is going on with the first girl, but it sure isn't much. The seed has maybe emerged for another two millimeters from the soil, but that is it. The seed hasn't cracked, and no leaves are visible. Hell, I can hardly see the stem.
Yesterday, I gave each girl about one liter of the compost tea that I started a couple of days ago. Let's see if that helps, although, at this point, I kind of doubt it.
As always, I completely forgot to check the pH of the tea. I have no idea why I keep forgetting that with my teas when I have no problem checking the pH when I use plain water. Oh well. Not the end of the world but something I need to keep in mind for the next tea in a couple of weeks.
The second girl looks great, though, so that's something at least.
D20 - Alright, it is official. The third girl died as well. The seed never cracked, and the stem went limp. I have no idea why this happened, and now I'm out of Colorado Cookies seeds, so that's that.
I have already planted another seed to see if the problem persists with another strain. I will make a separate diary for that one, though.
On the positive side is that the remaining girl looks strong and healthy. She is now 9 cm tall and 18 cm wide on this last day in week two of veg. Upwards and onwards!

Hola a todo el mundo!!🙌😃.
Espero que anden bien amigos!, yo ando con poco tiempo (créeme que me encantaría poder cultivar y vivir de esto😅, pero esta complicado), a lo que este diario se refiere, he aumentado dosis de fertilizantes, con un ph de 6 -6.1, aun no he vuelto a medir drenaje, las plantas vienen respondiendo bien a pesar del bloqueo que ha tenido, pero prometo en el próximo resumen cargar estos valores.
Nos vemos la próxima semana! Y si lees esto y no me sigues, en instagram, ayudarías siguiendome( es gratis seguirme😅😉).

🌿 Khalifa Kush - Sun-Kissed and Stacking! ☀️?
Welcome to Week 10! The Khalifa Kush is putting on a spectacular show out in the natural light. She is soaking up the sun and turning into an absolute jungle of healthy, vibrant foliage.
📈 The Details / Progress Report:
Canopy Density: Just look at how thick she is getting! The internodal spacing is tight, and she is stacking leaves on top of leaves. The structure is incredibly dense, creating a massive, bushy frame with multiple strong tops fighting for the light. 🌳
Foliage Health: The close-up shots show off exactly what we want to see. The leaves are a perfect, rich, vibrant green with deep, healthy ridges and sharp serrations. She is praying beautifully toward the sun, showing zero signs of stress or nutrient deficiencies. 🍃
Sunbathing: The way the natural sunlight catches the texture of those fan leaves highlights just how robust she is right now. She is heavily fueled up and actively converting all that outdoor energy into explosive vegetative growth. ✨
💧 Next Steps:
With a canopy this incredibly thick, the main focus moving forward is going to be keeping an eye on the airflow through the center of the plant. As she continues to bush out, I might need to consider tucking some of those massive fan leaves or doing a very light defoliation to make sure the inner growth sites are getting the light and breeze they need to thrive. For now, I'm just letting her enjoy the great outdoors!
Let's keep it growing! 🌱💨

Hello!
For this setup i´ll use Optic 1 XL in a 80cmx80cm tent, (indoor grow), with temperature, humidity and air flow controled... Have heard great things about Real Cookies and now it´s time to grow it!
Have successfully germinated 2 seeds out of 2 using the easy start kit from RQS, 100 % rate! (made a DIY box and used the wireless router to keep it warm) Notice this seeds have sprouted in less than 48h it´s a personal record to me!
I´m using Janeco light mix and prepared the soil with the the easy boost organic nutrition before reporting the seedlings... It´s time to turn on the lights and let the mother nature do the magic!

We are at week 3 now. A lot of development, i have not used liquid nutes this week, it is raining a lot so no water needed, thus no liquid nutrients.
I have top feed of dry nutrients mix, basically a mixture of a super soil recipe that usually is used within to make a hot soil:
I mix all tue ingredients together and use it gradually about 40g as a powder, in the top of the soil.
- Azomite 500g
- Natural fosfate 500g
- Biochar 1kg
- Bokashi 1kg
-Kelp meal 500g
-Mamona meal 1kg
-chicken meal 1kg
-Potassium silicate 500g
-Gypsum farm 500g
-Diatomaceous earth 500g
Mix all keep it in a soil bag, this pure mix and use it once every month.
The companion plants have emerged and will protect the soil humidity mainly.

Week 8 really can see the vegetation stage in action. Get that growth spurt right before they get the light turned to 12 and 12:00, make for bigger buds. Red Jack Auto, alien gas XXL are already 6 weeks into budding. Gorilla z just started two weeks ago. Can't wait to see the others.

Woo-wee!! The kief on this strain is like nothing I've ever seen, we've grown an insane amount of different strains (easily 3x what we've documented) and this one wins🏆.. I've included pictures but none can do it justice, the trichomes are visible to the naked eye and just falling over each other.. the smoke is very smooth (the little bit that's dry), this despite no cure yet, it melts in the pipe....we made another batch of tincture (for me lol), 12fl oz with 1oz Bruce Banger bud, oven dried slow and then decarbed at normal temps.. 10ml of this tincture made my knees weak lol, its been great for sleep at night..that last part was surprising to me, when smoked it definitely has all sativa qualities but the tincture is like Nyquil (I could have over cooked it)...as always accurate weights are out of the question, we dry only our half here and the rest goes to other houses to dry once harvested but if I had to guess I'd say we got around roughly a half lb, maybe 7ozs..the dry box smells like Fruit Loops cereal with a little bit of diesel ⛽ 🍓, its really pleasant..I'm really glad we grabbed clones of this, we have roughly 10 plants, some will be passed to family but we'll definitely be flowering a bunch more for ourselves... thanks as always for dropping by and happy harvests everyone!! ❤️💡🌱😽💨

Still no changes compared to last week. The plant is holding steady, patiently biding its time before making the next move 🌱⏳.

Week 7 Flower - Notice that the tops of some of the Tops are pretty hard. Think they got a bit cooked by the LED...
Hifi 4G & Blueberry Pics are missing from this week...I thought I had taken some footage, but seems that I got distracted. Work has been nuts so not surprising that I gapped on that.
Hifi 4G is needed more support. Looks like a blue ribbon chaos around it.
Blueberry looks fantastic.

Auto Flower AK Triple Haze (A-AK3H) by Super Sativa Seed Club: Day 42 from seed, 17 Days in flower. All are Green, healthy & growing. Still running a comparison of living soil+Teas vs Coco/Perlite+Fertilizer. Dramatic difference as you can see in the video. Not a lot of difference in Bud size though. But we will see. Still some time for the stack & ripening stages. Exception of course is A-AK3H #3 whom is the runt of the litter since it began. Weekly Environment: 77F, 46% RH, 975ppm CO2, & yesterday moved to 1100-1300PPFD 12hr Lighting. A-AK3H #1, 2, & 3 all received 2 teas this week along with an amended soil application to keep up with nutrition.
