The way I'm setting this up it's going to be epic. Whether it's an epic failure or an epic success, I don't know!
Going back thru Chapter 1, the tent appeared to be quite full with only 27 plants. I'm talking about almost 10 times that many so it seems almost insane to even try...lol

The temps in my basement have been cold but stabilized at 46 degrees. I've been running my 600 on a 12/12 cycle with an oil radiator heater running on it's lowest setting of 600 watts during the lights off cycle. I've managed to get the temps in the room up to 54 but no higher. Tonight I turned off the oil radiator and switched the 600 to be on 24/7 and with all ventilation turned off and the tent closed it's 77 degrees in the tent which is exactly where I want it for now.

Here is how I will be germinating the seeds. I will have a large towel over them for the 1st 2 days to keep them in the dark.

Each tray consists of 98 1.5" rockwool cubes. They will remain here until ready to be transplanted into the tubs.

I noticed that when I'm soaking and popping my beans that when they're in the complete dark while soaking they pop much better for me. 100% since I've been soaking and popping beans in water the last year. Used to just do it natural and let it pop itself in the medium but that takes to long for me now lol

Can you walk me thru your method? I assume when you say soak you're literally soaking them in like a cup of water? Do you use rockwool at any point or just go right from sprout into your medium?

Going to an interesting grow.
That's a shocking amount of freebie for the amount you've spent. I've got a couple of accounts with attitude under different names and split my orders to get the mot freebies I can

I take a shot glass with some tap water. Drop them in there and put it in my closet where it's dark for 2 days. Most of the time all of them should be cracked by then but there can always be some stubborn ones. I go straight to the medium after that. Happy Frog base soil or when I'm growing it hydro and the only way I grow a seed hydro is if it's fem. I don't do dwc so not good for me to grow hydro with regs. I will use clones only now. But I'll grow regs hempy style with all perlite so straight to the medium

Well, I'm finally off to the races. Attitude shipped my large order in 3 shipments. I got my 1st shipment in just over a week which is typical. But here I am 3 weeks later still waiting for shipments #2 and #3. #2 is out for delivery and #3 should be here Monday as it cleared customs and is not far now.

Order #1 contained 80 of the 100 Chronic Thunder and orders #2 and #3 will be the remaining 20 Chronic Thunder and the 100 Skunk #1's. I went ahead and planted the 80 Chronic Thunders that I have into rockwool this morning. It's official now!

I realize in the 12/12 from seed it takes 20-30 days for the seeds to officially start budding. Before I did a 12/12 from seed I thought day 1 of flower was the initial day not knowing it took longer.....

Even tho you don't run autos, i wanted to show you a strain you made me think of. Its Auto Sour Kush by Low Life. Looks like basically growing a cola lol

lol no i wish I've never grown bud. trying tho. Im on week 3 of flower. i have a 2x2 tent i want to consistently harvest my own smoke from. Gonna try 4 autos 2 weeks apart. Your idea intrigues me tho. Thought this might be a decent strain to try for a cola growing style. This pic is from The Single Seed Centre. Where i buy my beans.
