The seeds have arrived, along with posters, king-size (good and thin) rizla, plant pot sticks etc, very nice package
Stuck a random seed in a glass of lukewarm, filtered tap-water :
Put the glass in my little insulated box :
So the seed could drop anywhere between 4 and 48 hours in my experience, usually within 24.
Once it's dropped i'll transfer it to damp paper towels and keep it in a warm, dark place until it the taproot sprouts.
Thinking about the grow ahead, i usually switch to flowering at around 35-40 days but this time i'm trying Seymour's tip of doing it around day 25.
I was also thinking of running the bucket on only two of the four airlines (around 600 LPH instead of 1200), the logic behind this is that the growth in hydro is so vigorous my light doesn't do justice to all the foliage, so less oxygen, less growth, more energy put into fewer bud sites.
I'll also be excessively trimming this grow, in another effort to divert more energy into higher buds.
But, if i can afford the new light then i'll put all four air lines on.
This AKR is improving nicely as she cures, such a great smoke for mental and physical stress/pain.
Hope you're all well, thanks for reading,
