Hey Growers,
It's been some dark times...Long story, so get yourself a joint or vape or whatever your poison and buckle in...
The third go didn't go as planned. I discovered that the last shipment of seeds went through the sorting machine in the post office and many got damaged. The seeds that did germinate didn't have enough energy to go the full run and by the time they did, I had about six seedlings left. Not nearly enough to do the SOG run.
I had now wasted more of his seeds then I've sown in the previous year. Shame became over me and I had to explain this latest failure to my mate
In the end he felt sorry that the seeds didn't ship well, but he is a top bloke!! and said it would be alright...A couple of days later a new envelope with another fifty SOS seeds from his latest harvest dropped in my mailbox. ♥ ♥ ♥
Anyway, I started this new attempt about a week ago and was waiting until I was sure they went through this early stage before posting here. If it failed I would have posted that to and that would have been the end of it...Short pain, if you get my drift.
But, and I'm holding wood while I'm typing this, but the seedlings look alright for now.
I went all in and sowed three seeds per pot, straight into the soil as Sawney advised me. "Let nature decide mate..." From those 45 seeds 35 made it up and I have at least two seedlings into each pot giving me the opportunity to keep the best one.
09/02/2023 - S.o.S. - not quite yet day one...
In the back left corner there a 2L tub with water in which a vaporizer was mounted. That thing lived for two days and then shorted out my usb wire, which got so hot, that I was lucky I noticed it in time, as this could have caused a fire...sure of it... I've ordered a new one which is made to run for 10hours straight and has two nozzles, which can be turned on in sequence allowing for continues use...Just need to remember to fill it up with water now and then...
Large Capacity Humidifier - T16
All the sprouts have emerged and have become seedlings

I raised the light from 25% to 30% and while the light is momentarily running 24/7 on, I will be starting to give the plants some dark time in the future, but for now I want them to get all the energy those little leaves can harvest so they can expand their root system
The temperature is alright, but humidity could be a bit higher. This will improve as soon as the new humidifier arrrives.
