Hey Folks, I posted last night in the intro section as a returning old stoner trying to fire up some old seed stash...I thought it would be fun to do a "grow journal" since I've never done one, and actually have no clue myself what the old bag seeds were. I NEVER kept bag-seeds unless they rocked my boat, so it could be interesting to find out what they actually are...The one's I do know the origin were KVS Regular Auto seeds I bred myself years ago because I kept the seeds and labeled them as DANK KVS. I found everything in an old dresser in the basement, sealed up in old prescription bottles along with a few pipes and other misc. crap.
I scuffed and soaked about 10 of each strain in rain water with a touch of 29% H2O for about 24 hours, and much to my surprise they had a few tails....so in the coco they went. I did it again and the same, so I put those in some Happy Frog soil...and now I have so many sprouting I felt like documenting just for fun!
You can see in the pics that I used red toothpicks to mark the KVS seeds....the green or bamboo sticks are the mystery photo bag find. So far I've had a surprising germination rate, so I should have enough to weed out the males and runts to leave me with a few nice females. I'm running all of them 18/6 with my T5HO's for now (they range from 2-3 days old to about 1 week in age). The KVS will eventually go outside for the summer, and the bag seed will stay in under my LED setup inside at 12/12.
Here are some pics....they are all in sprout trays with a heat mat, and I've just used rain water with a tiny bit of GH's Bio Root added, PH'd to 6.2 and the PPM is around 100. I will likely need to re-pot them soon so I can sex them.....hey, if anything I'm having fun!
