Hey rollitup.......... Last night I germinated 5 bag seeds and all of them popped. I'm growing outside and I know its late in the season. I started a grow on may 5th but had a few snags, I.E. little ass hole neighbor kids digging up my crop of white widow that took 2 fucking weeks to get to my house! Dont you just love kids! lol....... I planted the 5 seeds in a sprouting tray and one of them popped up this morning. I will update pics as the plants progress. Im not counting on a spectacular crop this year, but this is an attempt. stay tuned.
 
So im a little disappointed.... The first plant to sprout is my only one left, my cat some how managed to get in my closet and knocked over my sprouting trays. So i only have one seedling now. Im growing in about a half gallon container to start out this plant and im using miracle grow potting soil, I know its not very good quality but its all i have. So this sprout is about 1 day. The plant is currently in a window sil that gets adequate light, untill it gets a little more established.

Update, Unknown to me I checked those sprouting trays this morning and had Three more sprouts, Wich i feel great about it, except i lost two but life goes on I will update the pics in a couple days!
 
Day 4: i have a few concerns with one of my plants, The first one to sprout, the last two pictures, was attacked by a critter of some kind! It ate the one of the first leaves to appear, the smooth round ones. and ate one of the first leaves that has ridges, Will this plant die and how can i prevent it from dying and keep it from being eaten. Also the other sprouts i was talking about are doing just fine. feel free to comment and please help me out. Peace....

Hey man sorry to hear about the misfortunes that your having. I put small chicken wire enclosures around my plants outside (just a circle around the plant with the top basicaly twisted together). if you make it big enough for the plant to get 4 or 5 nodes high then when you take off the chicken wire or it grows out of it it should be big enough to survive outside the chicken wire. Theres lots & lots of techniques but what one technique scares away usually attracts another.

And anyways its only late in the season if you consider it late. As long as you get 1 good fem out and can get a lil bush going you can go out and snag some good shooted branches and take clones and put those clones out when its 12/12 out. You'll end up with SOG style plants but hey who cares right. :p
