Previously, on Dean's:
Three of five high-mid bagseeds germinated in his starters. After a few days, roots came from the bottoms and they were transplanted to 5" netpots filled with hydroton under CFLs and watered hempy style. A couple of days later they were placed in a 10 gallon tote with two airstones, with weak nutes and a touch of superthrive just over the bases of the pots. Suddenly, Specimen A began to wilt. After some extra watering and added lighting (4 26w cfls, 1 18" grolux, and 2 100w cfls) they were arranged with B and C directly under the big ones with A in between them. This is their story...
Today, I came home to find nice tight branching beginning on the rapidly growing plants. Just a few inches high and a tangle of big leaves! Specimen A did not make it and was removed from the experiment. However, an intersting difference was noted between B and C - B is double C's size and has roots coming out from all sides of the netpot! C hasn't shown nearly as rapid root growth. No major differences in the handling of the two young plants, aside from the cfl directly above C being slightly angled while the one above B is straight.
Little did these two survivors realize that, just above them in the secret germination chamber, a Feminized Nirvana Northern Lights sprout was beginning to peek out of it's starter cube, ready to take the place of their fallen comrade...
