Really stoked to be germinating these seeds! It feels good to be putting some love and energy into these too. They come with a lot of good vibes and what the cannabis community should represent as a whole. If only the rest of the world could learn about the kindness and generosity that comes from most of the people in this community. The wisdom and patience given here are short of amazing. Thanks to all of you. I really want to send a virtual fist pump and share a bowl to show my appreciation for the wisdom and time from @Jackalope to get to this point and for the opportunity to enjoy these genetics!
I have never tried the paper towel method of germinating seeds so I wanted to give it a shot and form my own opinion. I'm really trying to not pigeon hole myself into only one way of doing things with growing cannabis.
Started them in a flooded paper towel with distilled water on Sat 4/6/20 at 10am. The first two pics are before water is added.
Blue Dream (feminized)
Chocoloco x Jack's Cleaner 2 (regular)
No sprouts the first 24 hrs. I drained all the excess water and moved them into a warmer location (75°) on Sunday morning. Nothing to show Sunday evening yet. Checked them this morning 4/6/20 at 6:30am and I had tap roots on the Blue Dream and the other two seeds starting to barely crack open! Wooo! By this afternoon, we had more developed tap roots on all of them.
Blue Dream - Are these ready for some dirt yet?
I will be starting these in 4" CowPots. When they are ready for their final pots, the best one will be planted in the ground. I will be doing some LST to keep it from getting too noticeable. The 2nd pick will be getting a 10 gallon fabric pot. The 3rd pick will be getting a 20 gallon pot. I will be doing some more aggressive training on the other two.
Chocoloco x Jack's Cleaner 2 - Starting to get there slowly but surely. Is it ok to get them in dirt at this point?
I will be starting them in 4" Cowpots also. After that I was hoping a 1 gallon until they mature enough. IF both are ladies then I will be growing one in a 20 gallon and one is a 10 gallon fabric pot.
I decided to start a new journal dedicated to these seeds. The three Blue Dream are feminized and the two Chocoloco x Jack's Cleaner 2 are regular. I need to figure out what the short name of this cross is! Do I really need to call it this everytime @Jackalope ?
