420 Magazine’s Official Girl Scout Cookies Comparative Grow By Cr8grow

[cr8grow]

Hello growers, WSE GSC fem seeds and 420 stickers received. I chopped plants 2 days ago and need some additional time in the grow cabinet for dry and initial cure. I’m on track to start this comparative grow by the end of April. Starting this new journal early to get on the comparative grow link list.

Don't worry, I've got loads of munchies.

As a yoof I'd have said 'Don't be shy Prof, hand out on't spice'. Whoever had strawberry campino's had to be prepared to be mugged.

VetSmoke85, Good to see you stop by...dropping seeds in about 2 weeks.

Rexer, I hear you...so much going on here. A couple weeks will be about right for a little action here. With seed delivery delays I will not be the last to launch.

BakedARea, Carmel cashew trail mix good...welcome aboard for my first comparative grow. GSC is my favorite, a win-win.

420, Thanks for pulling together the WSE GSC comparative grow. I know there will be plenty to learn with many

different grow styles. Great idea. I will post pics of my homebuilt grow cabinet to get something posted here. I will change out the carbon filter and do install a new HEPA filter in the light blocking box, my passive air intake, each grow.

 

[DonkeyDick]

Nice cabinet. I like the light baffle on the air intake. I especially like the castors! Now I want my tent on a dolly. Damn

 

[cr8grow]

DonkeyDick, thanks, I forgot the technical systems shot. The cabinet does move, but is a beast.

 

[Brett Blaze]

Looking forward to the show.

Dano999, Looking forward to you checking in, welcome.

That looks great! I like the concept a lot.

This will be my 6th grow, looking forward to a photoperiod grow after three consecutive auto grows. Dropped 4 seeds into distilled water Saturday morning May 1st. The seeds are small, light colored and have no markings, spots or banding. I was surprised to see a small tail on one already this morning. I soaked 6 seeds to yield four. I will plant all into Solo cups and go with the 4 healthiest when I transplant into 5 gallon pots. I need to change the 4” filter and swap in the veg bulb, mix soil and clean the cabinet. Updates will be more frequent when sprouts appear.

Today, Saturday May 8, is DAY 1...4 of 6 up this morning...unleash the grow. Well tap water with Superthrive in a spray bottle, just a spritz. WSE GSC seeds are vigorous. I dropped 6 seeds last Saturday, had tails on all Sunday night and on track 1 week later.

Still not much to see over here yet. A few shots from day 4 and 5 (today). I have four front runners and one back-up. The sixth is barely visible after I brushed away a little soil and still has the split seed attached. It hasn’t changed since yesterday and probably won’t make it. Could have been operator error on depth. These were fast to show tails in one day of soaking and 4 popped up in 4 days after planting. So 100% germination and at least 5 of 6 looking good. Oddly I lost one seed in the mix when planting, dumped the top of the soil out and still couldn’t find it. So I dumped the soil back in, marked cup with a X and hoped for the best. That plant was the first to sprout, next to the cup side not centered, and is #1 today. Since it was close to the side I am able to see root development faster than the others. Already doing well and pic included. Pics are from day 4 and 5.
