Well done woolybear I always disinfect my beans in hydrogen peroxide too. And love rapid rooters they're the only plugs I'll ever use for my cuttings, never used em for seeds I just use peat pellets they work great and they're dirt cheap. I ordered some gavitas yesterday so these testers will be some of the first grown under those, along side of my faves. They'll be vegged under a 600 watt m.h

5 of mine have popped and are now in 4" rockwool cubes. A couple of them had taproots.

Of the rest, 3 are peeking and 2 and no-shows. Fun times

edit: now the 5 remaining are peeking out. I'll put them in rw tomorrow.

Here's the garden:

they are basking under an old 300w LED. Look at the stretch already on the lil guys.

Still debating the lighting schedule. I'm thinking of 12/12 from seed, which would be convenient as the tent they are in is in flower at the moment.

I'll probably end up keeping them in the 4" blocks and maybe even do rockwool slabs, dutch style like sammy. going to need to setup a tub for that.

Hey willybear,

Thanks for the update
Looking good so far you always veg under a led ?

Depends on how much tent space I have. I'm doing 12/12 from seed with these plants so its a natural fit to place them in the LED flower tent... saves me from having to acclimated them to the leds later.

Here they are at day 9, a bit droopy because pic was taken right after lights on. They seem to have stopped the initial seedling stretch stage and are working on leaves. I'd say at least 50% have roots poking out of the bottom of the 4" cubes.

Haven't bought a tub for these yet, still have time before the next phase

note the one of the very left 2nd row down is the stretchiest seedling i've ever germinated. it has been growing a 1/4" every day.

i've added a desk fan pointed at the seedlings, and i've propped up the ones falling over. also treated them with a spinosdad spray, gnats are an issue with the heat. That and the fan blowing air should prevent them from gaining a foothold.

day something

day something

actually we started on 7/1, so this would be day 14, week 2 under 12/12.

As you can see the plants are still alive. Most have roots peeking out of the bottom, except for the really stretchy one.

day 23

day 23

moved plants to individual pots. still debating what kind of medium to use.

Was going to pick up a bag of rockwool chunks but got sticker shock at the price. I'll probably go old school full rockwool as this is a seed run and I'm not trying to crazy with the amount of medium.

The that are perched higher in the pots are the ones that have the best root growth... 50% of the group have tons of white roots, others have 50% or more less root activity.

My only concern is that two of them have weak brown areas at the base of the stem. They look great but flop over, here's a pic:

One of them, the tallest, has been floppy from the start. I applied some 33% strength h2o2 and added a small fan.

update: the brown area is gone after applying the 33% h2o2. Still wobbly so i'll be propping them up. Have both suspects right in front of a lil fan.

Hey woolybear, they're looking awesome man. One thing I've noticed in my experience starting Sativas seeds is that they all seem to start with a more wide indica/hybrid looking leaf structure. But once they start flowering they will thin up and take on the Sativa look really quick.

I'm sure one or two are Bubba leaners, but with that amount of haze I there it would be next to impossible for everyone to come out bubba leaning. But hey crazier things have happened I suppose. Keep those pics coming bro

great info! yeah, this is my first experience with something hazey.

Update:

The two plants with the stem issues have keeled over. If they don't improve by tomorrow this'll be an 8-plant grow!

I bought a sack of rockwool chunks and potted the remaining 8 plants up. They are all looking pretty happy.

Do I plan to top these? Not sure.
