So this is my first attempt at a grow journal, and what I calculate to be my 4th attempt at a successful grow.
Attempt #1 got neglected down in the grow room, and was left for dead. It was actually a minor success; as it at least produced about a 10th of an ounce
Attempt #2 got stressed down in the grow room and hermed.
Attempt #3, was the project I had referred to here as Feyleaf. She was a partial success. From random samplings, the effectiveness seems to be real hit or miss, to the point I can't be sure if I am just believing it is and acting accordingly. The problem was that she got planted close to a month too late in the season, and went through a couple too many freezes. However, even if the yield was weak, I feel that I can find other uses for the buds and leaves, perhaps culinary. No harm seeing what we can do with it, eh? We have quite a few cuttings that are surviving, but not growing at this time; some planted in small pots, and some just being kept in water. We also dug up the mother plant with her root ball and transplanted into a big trash can to see if we can revive her over the winter.
So now we get to this new project that just fell into my lap. I recently made the pilgrimage to my favorite dispensary, and got an ounce of Tardis for $90 ($100 minus their 10% military discount). While grinding a bit of the bud up in my fingers before going into the vaporizer, a seed fell out onto the table (a nice $60-$80 bonus value from what I could determine. Wasting no time, I grabbed a coffee mug, filled it with wrm tap water, dropped the seed in, and put it under a florescent lamp. As hoped, a day or two later, a taproot was showing, the start of a baby Tardis.
And here is its first baby picture, about three days later.
I believe that in another day or two, it will be getting planted into a Styrofoam cup of yard dirt to truly begin the grow process, with pot upgrades throughout the winter, just like the previous plant. Whether it ends up being male or female won't really matter much, as I've been wanting one male plant any way for future breeding experiments.
