Indoor Waxi's short stuff test thread

[Waximus]

Hi folks, ready and waiting for seeds

Question for Jim/Short Stuff... Is there a preferred grow method/process you'd like for these tests? I was planning on using my Sunshine#4 mix, with amendments, and AN M/G/B with additives (hobbyist and expert schedule). They'll be put under 500 watts MH, then 750 watts of HPS.
Can't wait to get started!

Seeds arrived today, by wind whipped carrier pidgeon... I'll germ 3 of each in the next day or 2

Germination update- 2 out of 3 of each strain have popped, in PT. I'll pot them up Sunday morning, and get this test grow going!
One note- I have 2 test groups- let's call them H2 and H4. When I put the seeds in a shot glasses the other day, one of the H4 seeds dropped to the bottom like a stone! It was the first to pop.

Good question, I wondered about guidelines also, otherwise I'll stick to my recycled organic soil ammended with worm castings and/or Grow More Organic Soil Builder.

Quick update: So, only 2 of the H2 and 1 of the H4 sprouted soil. The 2nd of the H2's wouldn't have, until I dug it out and set it straight. The others, when I gently dug them, were dead under the soil... I didn't do anything diff from normal... Hmmmmm.
Perhaps, germination problems are part of the test??
I'll post pics tomorrow- I've been down with a MASSIVE head cold/sore throat/headache all week, and I need a nap! lololol

Ladies and Gentlemen... I introduce.. from the stitchy regions of the Universe......
The Hazy Ladies!!!! At Day 6 from soil.

H4.1- Clearly the Queen of the bunch, and looks solid.

H4.2- She had helmet head early on, but not showing long term issues..

H2- She's the only seed of the 3 to pop soil. Both the other seeds were atrophied in the hole, and I just lightly covered the seed hole to block light, no pat down....

So, the Girls are on their way. I'll be transplanting into 3 gallon root pouches tomorrow/Friday, and put them in the veg tent under 750w MH, 20/4.

The H2 seedling is not producing her first real leaf sets... I'll keep her going, but she isn't budging a bit...

The SCH toddlerettes, Day 9. I'll be transplanting into 3 gal root pouches tomorrow, and into the veg tent they go- 20/4... The lower right is the H2. She has her cotyledons and single leaf growth. She doesn't even have a BUMP in the leaf cleft that would show another set is coming. I'll keep her going, but I'm thinking Certified Tweaker...... just sayin....

Status report..Short Stuff Stardate 1/31/15.... lolol Well, the H4s are coming along fine on Day 16 from pop. Trying to dial in the watering-currently leaning on dryer rather than..

H4s... Good structure and seem to be doing good. I just boosted their nutes, so the lower N def should be short lived

Ok... This H2 is just plain genomically fekked... I mean, what the.....
M.O.O.N... That spells Tom Cullen!! lololol
