My jars of weed are almost empty. And just in time, I have some seeds ready. This will be a seed to harvest sensi grow, specifically for flower.
I didn't take a picture of the seed packs or the really early stages. But you'll get the idea. 😀
I pop seeds in different ways depending on seed age and number. But this time... they are all relatively new seeds.
After some abrasion, the seeds sat between moistened paper towels in labeled ziploc bags for 3 1/2 days in the dark @ 76°F. A tad bit cold, I know, but it works.
Then, the newly sprouted seeds go gently into solo cups full of 2yr. old aged (should have got some new) coco/pearlite. (Going to buy new seed starting medium for next run) Each solo cup has 4 cut drain holes. The sprouted seeds, usually with no shell attatched, get gently planted into the moistened coco/pearlite mix where they root and grow for 3 or 4 weeks under a 4' t5 then mh.
I then transplant them to mostly 3 gallon hard containers where they veg under 600 then 1200 watts of mh until 1 week into flower where there's another spectrum change to 1200 watts of hps.

So excited for these 18!
Gg4 RIL is a stand-by now. We have grown it a few times and that is some good smoke and they are easy plants to grow. Not quite GG4, but good and with a more Citrus note in phenos.
Ran 1 Peach Sherbet OG twice and it was fkng fabulous 👌 sweet peachy lemon sherbet kushy fuel.
Also ran 2 regs before of Hazeman's LA Pure Kush F2. I could smoke that every day. And did when I had the opportunity. Lol. Tastes like classic OG to me, but the flower's shape was different.
Outta these 3 (gg4ril, lapurekush f2 and peachserbetog) I reach for any of them. No fav of the three. Okay, PSOG seems best but RIL yields and is great too, and LA PK has that classic OG gas flavor profile I so love.
Looking forward to some Freak fems. Kushana and Starry Eyed. Blackberry Bread and Don Johnson were wicked awesome as described, and I can't wait for these four feminized beauties.
I was able to sneak in a couple of Female Brisco's Purple Banana Cake. Sounds a delicious dank treat. From a breeder with taste. 😋 After seeing HBZ's pics, I gotta run that Banana Punchsicle I have, but sadly she has to wait until at least the beginning of next year. So many seeds so little time.
Holy Goddess by Santero. Which is 6 days younger but healthy. I think that's Santa Shiva X Holy Princess rvsd. Or maybe I have the pairing backward.
Oh yeah, Holy Princess is this honey sweet tropical berry happy weed. It was originally made by Eskobar maybe a decade ago and reproduced more recently in F2 as an Eskobar tribute by Santero. I still have 10 more of the Holy P F2s to look through sometime.
Looking for some kushy breathy smoke in the Platinum Kush Breath remix by Force of Nature. Definitely going to be popping more FON seeds next run. Especially one of the Gush Mints crosses. For damn sure.
It's been a week above ground for most. Notably one of the Starry Eyed has a leaf curl on it's first true leaves. I think it's just more light or RH sensitive 🥺 than the others. Lol Maybe it needs a helmet or something. But it's keeping pace with the others.
All are at or around 75°F-77°F and 55% RH. So in a great range for their stage. Could jack the temp. and especially the RH up but why. I am going 24/0 since seed pop due to our Heat Pump being in current disrepair. The T5s give heat 24 hrs. 😀

All the others are fine specimens at this point. Strong green little pot plants.

WOoowee! I just got a seed gift in the mail from a kind gentleman. So glad to have the opportunity to run some of these C99101s next run.
-
The stems are just starting to get a little stiffer/woody on the wee ones. I try to mostly ignore them at this stage for their own safety. hehe

The Starry Eyed #1 with the leaf curl is growing with the rest. And is not outgrowing it's Leaf curl. Rather than cull it Ima just keep it and call it one of my uglies.
You know; the ones that produce buds but never seem to be happy.

+If I zoom in on the picture the plants is covered in trichome hairs. (I think they are know as cystolithic hairs)
Who knows, maybe the finish product will surprise me. 😮
I gave some of the young-uns homemade kickstands. (Made from bamboo skewers and twist tie material) Just to assist in holding the stems on some up until they fully harden.
Those Kushana have some fat little leaves as do the LA Pure Kush. Interesting.

I water based on how heavy the individual cups are. If enough are light, they all get a good wetting.
Tonight before bed they will get a drink. (How often do I stare at them, so mesmerized)
I topped the young Peach Sherbet OG already and the more rowdy Gg4 RIL seedling. Going for a few tops on some of these.
As this Run is for flower, next run will be for a Jaws C99 F6 seed run and other testing. As per my schedule the last couple years.
Oh yeah, the starry-eyed with leaf curl has mostly outgrown it. I see very deep leaf serrations and thinner leaves as compared to the other. I haven't fed anything yet, but this girl has a touch of tip burn. Definitely a satty pheno. I might just have to transplant her into a 5 gallon instead of 3 as she fascinates me so far.
