Hi there folks! Welcome to my Sweet Seeds Sweet Afghani Delicious grow. SAD was part of my first seed purchase after growing bagseed and their clones for the past two and a half years. I'm really pleased to have some strains that have some provenance and especially SAD.
Here is the seed card:
This is my sprouting setup. It's just a paper towel and a plastic tub:
I moisten the paper towel to wetness, just short of freely dripping water. I sandwich the seeds between the moistened towel:
Then I seal only one side of the tub, leaving room for air to enter/vapor to escape:
My heater is waste heat from a fluorescent light ballast. I place it in a position where the tub gets 'warm' (sorry for the imprecision):
The light is cycled 18/6 (pretty much my wake/sleep cycle) and within a day all four seeds were sprouted. I moved them to clear plastic cups as soon as the rootlet was >1 cm long. Here they are at 7 days post-sprout (meaning 7 days after I placed them between the moist towel and began warming) The media is Bio-Buzz Coco-Mix. The vegging light is a homemade multiple cfl fixture made from 1"x2" wood, a piece of aluminum flashing and two power strips which holds about 200 real(consumption) watts of cfl lights:
When I see a few roots thru the clear plastic I transplant into 1 gal grow bags. Here they are at 13 days post-sprout:
15 days post-sprout:
22 days post-sprout (which was yesterday):
A question for Tommy or other who have grown SAD: What sort of stretch can I expect when I place them into flower? A doubling of height? Tripling? This is an indoor grow and I don't want to be burning tops by vegging them out too much.
Thank you for stopping by!
