Hi All,
I will try to keep it brief to get up to date. I was having some room issues but all sorted out now. These are all seeds I have found over the last year and preserved (unknown strains but I will be happy with any as they are quality strains). Water only so far 6.5ph, little at a time and lots of spraying. Started in organic topsoil mixed with some starter fert (not extended release). No Transplanting, thinking to wait another week or two at least for nutes (thought's appreciated). I will be using Uncle Wiggy's line. This is what I got going on so far...
12/22 Germinated overnight in a paper towel on the fridge and Moved Sammie in
12/23 Planted 6 seeds none cracked (prefer letting them crack in soil anyway)
12/26 Breaking soil
12/27 4 of 6 sprouted - unknown strains
12/30 Babies growing well, Sammie is growing nice limbs
12/31 Planted new OGK seed I just Found in a fat bud! (Danielle #3)
01/02 Topped Sammie, set clipping and top to clone (in soil)
01/04 Danielle #3(OGK) broke the soil and stood 1 cm by evening.
01/05 Took bottom two sets off Sammie trying to get growth going.
01/09 Folded in Peat Moss today and covered stretched stems.
01/10 Cut off down pointing fan leaves off bottom two limbs and bent over
01/12 Started LST and pinch and bend cropping on Sammie
01/15 Continued Training Sammie - Great New Growth and getting Bushy
01/16 Still on water only mainly spraying

Room update. I added drain pan (washing machine pan) and some cookie cooling racks. Then I figured to add a drain for runoff and then down the rabbit hole we go. I added a pump some filters, tubes, quick connect for watering wand and done.

I read in here somewhere about sexing the tops, so I figured I would try it? I clipped 4 of 5 today, here is the set up. My question is should I flip the tops to 12/12 now or wait a day or two to let shock ease? Does anyone have any experience/success with doing this?

Still pinching and bending Sammie: training low in a spiral pattern with tons of new veg all over the place. Adjustable clips really make it easy to tweak every day where needed, look at her go...

Hi All,
Let the training begin! Everything is going well from what I can see so far runoff today was 889ppm after feeding, dropped light down some so the light meter is 800-900W at the plant level. The last photo is a clipping that really took off so I transplanted and started training too. No sex yet, keeping fingers crossed. Instead of topping #3 I FIM'd it? Hope I did it right...Quick photo update

Day 38: Moving along well. Did a little more training today really stretching them out. Fed again, PPM 899 runoff, keeping fingers crossed as I hope to see some sexes soon. Looks like I have both Indica and Sativa plants in the grow based on the leaves, I do not know any strains with the exception of #3.

This failed! I think it was the setup, to begin with. Medicated heavily and thought I was a genius, lol. Still waiting to see some signs of little white hairs on these ladies.

Hi All,
Little more training today. Feeding day, Runoff was just under 900 again. Starting to really stretch limbs out and seeing lots of new growth. Started some cuttings up top, as I still do not know the sex of any, other than Sammie #6. Keeping fingers crossed...

As soon as they are rooted flip them. I would usually flip them the day i transplanted them.

After adding fluorescent lights for some cuttings, raised temp 10-15 degrees to 84-88 steady and HR spiked 65-70HR. Found this airtitan fan with programmable temp/hr ($70) installed last night took little tweaking between the humidifier and fan controller but after an hour it balanced and conditions have not changed since last night, steady 73 degrees and 54HR, the water level in humidifier has really not changed either. I think we have reached a state of zen!
