TEST LAUNCH-Operation Redwood Tree

Please. I just ordered Serious Seeds AK-47 from weed-seeds.net ().

???

OPIE!!

HELP! I received some GORGEOUS cuttings in the mail....no IDEA where they came from.....just dropped in.....and since they were here I scarified them a bit and put them in some dip and grow and into some RR's and into the cloner......just because they happened to be there you know. (Ps...I think they came from Fort Knox because the packaging was AMAZING!..... Seriously you could have shipped a human baby safely in that wrapping and packaging.) :thumbsup:

But now.....they wilted BADLY.....I've put them on heat and I THINK they're coming back but I can't tell.....can anyone else think of anything I should do? These are seriously BEAUTIFUL cuttings...bushy....green.......I'd HATE to lose them..... will keep folks updated!

Well frankly I looked through the customer reviews for Kind Seed before I ordered.....they got EXCELLENT reviews which was the only reason I chanced it. Wah.

I did what Stinkster told me which was take a nail file and gently scrape the outside a bit on the seed and that worked very well. I've also heard (but never tried) putting them in a matchbox with some sandpaper and shaking it......that's just something I heard but I imagine sand paper would work if you were pretty gentle.

It DID crack the shell after soaking when I did that but the seed still went nowhere.....so I popped one side off and put it back......three days later there was a TEENY taproot and then seed number three quit. :wtf:

Opie Stinky wrote a thread on it somewhere.....I've always been of the mind that starting them in larger pots is better (in my YEARS of soil experience :D) but after Sal I'm sold on the idea. Let me see if I can find Stinky's thread....she always explains things well.

Ps.....Before I forget....the cuttings have improved quite a bit.....except I lost two; one in the scarifying and one that just didn't come back well after the stress. The rest look quite improved and even have a nice little smell to them. :)

Here's that thread.......Sal seemed to take a happy little jump each time I put her in a bigger pot and it really kept the amount of nutes I had to use down due to adding fresh soil at regular intervals AND the ph buffers in the freshly added soil assist with keeping the ph stable so I honestly never had to check it. :thumbsup:

May i ask what kind of cuttings you received WH??? :D

mmmmmmmmmm....AK in the house!!!...lol, comp was down for a few days...
I have been of the start em big theory too, till the first time i transplanted.....BANG!!!! I think the plants hit spurts when they are transplanted cause the roots thought they had to stop growing down...eh, stoner babble

Ha ha, you're right Zeb I completely forgot to say.....they are AK 47. When boxed up they had no smell but once I got them out BAM! Pretty strong scent especially since they're not even a whole plant (although the cuttings were so lovely it looked like there was a whole plant there....)

I'll post a pic or two later......if you hadn't seem them at their worst point you might not appreciate their glory at this time.....:D

Been hearing about some bad fires near you Stealth.....they getting that under control at all?

Well its been a while since I posted, lots of reading and lurking around here. Got too many GDP clones in mini hempy buckets right now and found some Black Kush beans (Black Domina x Ultra Master Kush - Mmmmmm). Also some Blue Madness (Blueberry x Mendo Madness - 45 day finisher). Sure wish I was lucky enough to find some pretty AK babies in the mail.... you Lucky Dog! :D
