I love growing from seeds...a new beginning so to speak. A lil' Cheeto Kush this year ..I'm pretty stoked to get these beans. I soaked the seeds in well water for 12 hours, 7 grew tails. I never soak them over 24 hours and they all were planted in beer cups filled with Happy Frog and Light Warrior. I had 12 seeds, I lost one when planting them (it popped off my tweezers and went down a black hole somewhere). All 11 popped withing 2 days. I am using my unheated sun-room to expose them to the natural sun and light winds and then bring them inside for the night. I like to get them accustomed to some cold temps as well..even early in their growth as they are going to have to acclimate to extreme temperature swings up here at 9400 feet above sea level. They all look super healthy and happy, very symmetrical and are a cool lime green in color. They're getting about 13 hours of light right now. I am trying out the Gas Lantern Technique for the first time and in the evenings I keep them in the dark... then give them 1 hour of light in the middle of the dark cycle. They are almost ready to clone and then I'll force them to sex out early. I am after a nice mom and a studly male as well.
They won't hit my greenhouse full-time until the end of May so I have plenty of time to veg them out and prune them up. They'll be planted in my GH in a mix of Black Gold, OF and my own organic compost which is heavy with horse manure and chicken poop. I'll ph the soil and adjust if needed and my well water is always around 6.0-6.5 I will also add in 1000 red wriggler worms in the soil as well. Nothing fancy here, just keeping it simple and organic They should kick ass up here in the Co Rockies, no doubt.
