Lets start with the seed it self.

The seed is one of the free seeds Ace Seeds gives when you purchase seeds from them.
It is a Reg not Fem seed. So I have no Idea what it is.
But I took the picture of the volcano to see it the sexing of the seed can be related to the volcano.
looked very healthy to me.
not very scientific i know.

I let the soil sit for about 3 months between grows. I kept it moist and fresh.
I know this soil is too hot for a seedling. I believe it has way too much N but that is probably not even beginning the description. There was a lot of plant matter trimming from the previous plant. The soil also got EWC, alfalfa, and seaweed mixed in after the previous plant was harvested.
I never planned on putting a sprout into it until it was at least 3 weeks old.

This grow started with less planning and fore thought than I would have liked. Lots of things went wrong as I started back up. I dropped the seed got the sprout and planned on starting in a solo cup for a couple of weeks.
Then all hell broke loose. Most notably I had a Gas leak in the apartment. Wall got torn up and all in the kitchen. I had to quarantine the sprout get it in the grow tent as fast as I could.
So the sprout in a peat plug went straight in to the big pot.
Here it is about 2 days old, poor little thing.

Here we are at about 5 days old, little baby. Has a lot of hair on the arms and legs.

Here it is at about a week and a day.

a week and a day lots of hairs.

maybe a week and two days old ;-)

 

[kelticBlue]

At about 2 weeks old a close inner look.

This is where I start to see mildew on the stalk. Lack of airflow, humidity during lights off and cold mid-atlantic atmosphere are excuses the cause is my lack of cleaning and preparation.

At least I think it is mildew. I researched and am pretty sure.

Here we are at just under three weeks old.

I started treatment with a milk water spray at or just before light on. I have cleaned out the tent and used homemade lactobacillus spray like the unconventional farmer. I have followed up with some Sodium bicarbonate water spray and I also have the lesser known apple cider vinegar water solution waiting in the wings to follow up that. I also have the SNS 244 on the way (site sponsor Sierra Natural Science.)

It is working to knock down the mildew, I feel it is gonna be ok. I seem to be holding it at bay.
here it is at just over 3 weeks old.

 

[kelticBlue]

It is getting close to that point I am thinking of flipping to 12/12! I hope it is a Girl.
I have started training the top. The nodes have been so close growing compact all I am doing is bending over the top.

Three weeks and a couple of days.

some artistic fun......

 

[kelticBlue]

That brings us up to date with the sprout of mystery!
Just a bit less than 4 weeks old.

Here we have the "training" I have bent the top over to try to encourage some of the branches from below to reach for the light.

just one more of before training the top

Looks like getting put into the big pot might have slowed her down some but she looks nice and settled in now! Hopefully she takes off soon for you.

Awesome photos, she's certainly a fuzzy one

Thanks so much. It is so super cool fuzzy and hairy.

I like tying them down...3/5 gal pot drilled all the way around the rim every 2" and chenille pipe-cleaners from the craft store (longer than regular ones) works well.

There are so many ways to manipulate them to get them to lay down, but I have tried a few and the chenille ties don't cut into the stems like string or wire... tie the mother down!!

 

[kelticBlue]

I like tying them down...

Ah Ha! Craft store for longer pipe cleaners, Nice! That reminds me I got to clean out my wife's pipe. These Homegrown buds block the poor thing up.


Thanks Hozona!!

I do believe I see boy parts after 4 weeks of Veg 18/6. The days are number for it in the tent. Such a cute thing too.
I may let grow in a window. I want some pollen if possible.
