Hi Everyone,
I am current trying to start some very old seeds that I have had here for a few years. I wasn't sure if they would sprout or not as they are about 9 years old. I was shocked when they did sprout to say the least. (Some quality seeds)They were lost in cold storage with rice/film canister for about 9 nine years. I purchase them from Brothers Grimm and wasn't able to grow them out. I had grown out F2 of Grimm seeds over the years but never these originals. Because the seeds were so old they have been having growing pains. They were not very healthy after sprouting in rockwool and I have been nursing them to life ever since.
Grimm seeds started Apollo 11 (2 of 10), Apollo 13 (3 of 10), and C99 (3 of 10).
The Apollo 13 are looking like mutants they do seem to be coming along though.
I am hoping they will start to get better formed nodes as they get older.
I have the PH set at about 5.9 and the EC around 1.0. They are all under a 400 watt HPS system.
I built the DWC/NFT system myself out of two big GWC containers I got from Home Depot. They both have a nutrient stream that is recycled though the system that runs back into containers.
Each tub has a air stone and a heater. They also both have a digital temperature reader.
I have also started some older NL #5 X Apollo 11 seeds that were not Grimm seeds. So far these look better getting started.
I have two Apollo 11's that look like the one below I am not sure if it will sprout a new node, I am hoping so. Anyone seen this type of thing before?
Thanks for checking out my newest grow. I will keep updates here.
