Mephisto Genetics DWC Orange Biscuits (NEW TESTERS) (2 tents, 2 plants)

[MissUniverse]

No no, I literally unplugged the air supply and left her to die with a view to chopping and binning her. It was only then she started to turn round, strange!

Aaahh, that is strange. My strangest dwc encounter was a huge bin of maxigro that wasn't properly mixed. That, along with god knows what, caused a bunch of plants including a dwc zkittlez to start shutting down then it turned itself around the smoke was great but no pistils ever formed.
The lesson i learned was don't buy cannabis nutes in bulk containers even if it's cheaper

Gotta love the strangeness!

Here are the seeds cracking their husks and begining to orient themselves in the rooters. They are now tucked away until they sprout.
I made sure to soak the hydroton around the rooters and then the rooters themselves to make sure the seeds stay moist.


Seed #1

Seed #2

 

[MissUniverse]

Everything is going well.
Seeda flipped themselves a bit and are going twirled in the rapid rooter. Seed #2 began having it's taproot begin to grow up into the light. I was able to catch it fast and do minor surgery saving the complete taproot and turning it right side up into the rapid rooter without issues.

Seed#1 (still twirly but should spring up and bite into the rooter perfectly in the next day)

Seed #2 (the one i flipped the root)
Pre taproot flip it was ever so slightly grown into the rooter

Tucked away for sprout (if it doesn't work well i will replace it with another seed), i will need to watch the seed closely. But i caught it in time

Seeds are looking good. Both are kind of above surface and I'd call it day 0, so not above ground but kind of. Seed #2 i had reorient again. I noticed the part of the root i rearranged did not keep alive but died back. The rest of the tap root looks fine so i reoriented it and will see how it grows over the next few days. I don't think it'll be a huge problem, but i may toss it into a small pot if it doesn't stay up to par after about a week. If so, i have the choice of starting another orange biscuits or doing another tester, or a backup plan which is one I would imagine MANY are still really interested in seeing grown in DWC

Seed #1 a bit twirled but happy and popped up

The sprout of seed #2
I may throw the seed into some soil

Tidied up the sprout and into the rooter again

Both plants in dwc with the third middle bubble bucket ready for me to plant a third plant. Ad i stated, I have another back up seed for orange biscuits and 2 other strains to run through yet.

 

[MissUniverse]

Today is day 1 for seed #1 and seed #2 made sure to give them some water around the hydroton and the rapid rooter (i have well water). I plan on doing this every 8-12 hours for the first 48 hours.

Seed #1

Seed #2

 

[MissUniverse]

Today is day 3. Seed #1 looks great, seed #2 i will be watching for a few more days but probably will cull it in favor of starting another seed.

Seed #1

Seed 2

 

[MissUniverse]

I culled seed #2 yesterday as it did not have any advancement and i am glad i did. The taproot had not grown any and was showing signs of rot.
I planted another orange Biscuits seed (seed #3) late night last night and expect it to poke above the router by Saturday.

Seed #1 (day 5)

Seed #2 (culled) the roots showing no progress and beginnings of root rot

Seed #3 planted on December 1st, 2020

 

[MissUniverse]

I will be starting one more plant but will be doing that in either a separate journal or may just have it make some random side appearances in this journal as i need something fast for a turn around. I will probably grow my old stand by of sour crack in dwc for a quick 60-100 grams in a 60-65 day turn around. That plant will not effect the outcome of either of these orange Biscuits.

 

[MissUniverse]

Today is day 7 for seed 1 and seed 3 popped above the rooter today without any issues noted.

I expect seed 1 to take about 5 more days for its roots to hit water due to the disoriented tap root so i am continuing to feed it directly from the hydroton for the time being as it continues reaching for the res.

Seed 3 looks like she will grow fast and be a good one.

Seed 1 day 7 (to get very technical if you go by how the seed should have sprouted it's only really 2 days younger than counted so it could be counted as day 5/6 vs 7)

Seed 3 day 0/1/sprout
