something in the general thread about this strain here they call homies. i've been trying it indoors(cab) i started a sprout outdoors n im gonna try 12/12 from seed with this new batch. like i said i have now idea what these seeds are except they got a strong genetics of a sativa...

i'm experimenting with this and i'll keep em posted for anyone else who would like to see the status. maybe when you guys see how to grows you might have an idea of strain or something. the pics below are of my setup. need to clean up a bit. i just bought a 50pd bag of black gold i wanna try cuz its got organic ferts. i'm also gonna try sprouting some peppers in here along side the new sprouts...

I will like to see how these start 12/12 from seed in black gold, because I have a PC grow case with a 2 plant bubbleponics system, and I am wondering how a plant would cope if I stuck two babies in there (12/12 from seed) whilst the others finish off, and then transplanting them into the bubbleponics sytem once they other two have finished? Would anybody be able to give me some advice on how she would cope being transplanted from soil to hydro, any tips? Thanks. Good luck on this grow mate.

hey guys i know i was trying to get four seeds in the box but only two truely germed, the third one is open but the roots taking forever to climb out and the fourth one is not looking so good so i'll probably end up with 2 or three. for this experiment...the sprout looks healthy...

With how moist the soil looks, probably definatly root rot, or just a bad seed. I keep my soil just moist enough that it only takes a day before it starts to seem crusty again, you want to barely water seedlings. VERY suseptible to root rot, until they get big that is, then they eat all the water you throw at them (There still is a limit though)

if anything bumps into a seedling too hard it can pinch the stem and sometimes they don't recover...I have to cover tiny seedlings because my cats, and sometimes field mice have been known to totally wreck seedlings...I have had too many not survive the night to not just cover them all up now...

wow okay. i know for a fact i didn't hit it. once they sprout i just let them be in there space. i think it's possible from root rot cuz the stem was purple n the root was brown. obvious sign of root rot...

i got four sprouts started and i'll grab some pics tonight and upload em. they all look good. one really stretched out so i had to transplant before the others but i'm gonna get new pots n transplant em all soon...
