Seeds have arrived 2 of each strain went straight into jiffy pellets. The heat maybe rough but going to get a new ac unit for the house so I don't have to use the wall bangers which gives me ac in the shop now. Still think I should slap some insulation in but going to roll with it for now.
Might just get another tent hood and light for my b day...asking for an advance on gifts 😆. It's only 1.5 months early 😉. Probably going to regret taking on a bigger workload with this grow spilling into dhgc. And still have to get a drip system set up.
I will be using coco loco for this grow along with nutes Vegamatrix in 7 gallon fabric pots. Plan is to transplant one time from pellets to 1gallon to 5gallon. I know they say you should start autos in final containers to avoid transplant shock. But I'm really confident about transplanting and have gotten pretty good at it. More details to come...tbc. ✌

I have transplanted and put seeds in final pots. I grow in soil and when done effectively I have had similar results.
I don't have problems transplanting, in fact I pride myself on my no shock transplant, but my time is very limited in summer(70 hour work weeks). So often straight in the final home. When I water, I use a spray bottle and spray just enough.
I love to watch everyone build up their grow and expand. I have to admit I admire everyone's resources. I get excited to see people getting it "right".
I am blessed with a big family, so my grow is very slow to expand. Lol But I take notes from the all-star team here ðŸ‘
Thanks

So kind soil was a stretch for me and I couldn't find coco loco in 5different shops. My go to store is getting in some green fields and I may give that a go. So for now I'm going to use roots organics original and pick up some green fields when they get it in. Just waiting on some heads to pop and wanted to address my media situation. Which has been my toughest desicion yet. I wasn't sure what I wanted to grow in and this fell into my lap after searching all day. First time using this germination method and I'm skeptical for some reason.... I hope they pop soon 😉.

One gg#4 poking it's head out...waiting on 5 more beans to pop. This is a quicker strain then the rest already coming out ahead. I hope these other beans pop.... I usually do the paper towel method for germination. I've had good success that way. Still got one of each strain but I'll give it another day or 2.

I always start in i think rapid rooters? Shit its 4am but pretty sure thats what they are called. Ive gotten pretty much 100%. Had a few die after they germinate, or maybe I killed them, but you should be good. I order 100 rapid rooters at a time and keep them in the fridge in a sealed bag, same lower drawer as my seeds. Let me know how that soil goes. I am a few days away from starting some new seeds. Want to test some other things. I have more now than I can ever use so just gonna play this grow.

Waking up to new beans and favorable weather makes my day. Don't think the weather will be much of a big deal but mother nature has been bipolar this year. Never know when there will be a heat wave. Going to home depot later to grab an exhaust for the shop though. Just got to figure out how/where to tie it in. Going to get it up and running soon as the girls are ready. 😃.

Thanks Campesino I did find one seed but idk if I had a stoner moment or what but I could only find one seed just barely poking out its head. Hopefully it will sprout just waiting on the blue cheese. Think I'll only get one probably will start germinating the last blue cheese soon.

Never used these jiffy pellets before. Somehow one of the blue cheese found it's way to the very bottom of the pellet but looks like it's trying to root so I just loosened up the pellet so it didn't have to fight through it. The other blue cheese has a tap root but can't seem to shed the husk of the seed. Not sure if I should try to remove it or place a little wet soil on top to moisten it up.
Not sure if I should plant them in pots or let them grow some roots before potting. They're not really taking off in the pellets like I assumed they would. Seemed like I had ones take off faster with the paper towel to solo cups.
Wife wants me just to get a new tent for these and close the shop down till we can get everything installed. This will save a bit of money for now. But makes my title misleading, and previous posts irrelevant.
Any thoughts as to potting now, and trying to remove the shell??

Day 4 since popping. Planted jiify pellets in 1gallon pots before transplanting into final home. Blue cheese still struggling to release seed husk and other blue cheese hasn't poked its head. Might get one out of the blue cheese. Debating on trying to germ my last bc seed.
Not much else going on just hoping they start flourishing soon. Not sure if it's just an auto thing or my germ method or soil I chose...but all photos I've grown so far have sprouted faster and more vigorously in the first few days. I'll be patient and just tell them you can do it ladies 😆.

Don't know what's going on with the bluecheese one didn't germinate and the other won't open up. Reclaimed the one that didn't germinate from jiffy pellet trying the papertowel method on it before I give up. The others are doing well...perky and I'll probably have to raise the cfls soon. I have one led light daylight bulb in there but seems like the plants enjoy the cfls more. Not much else to report. Waiting on soil and should be here in time to transplant might only be growing 4 instead of 6 if these bluecheese don't make it. Happy growing!!
