Sowed my wild oats - 8 new ones to me

Those damn church seeds.....

Opie, get my email from the Hound and shoot me a quick message. Do you like indicas or sativas better?

[Opie Yutts]

Will do. I like the strong high of indica, but there are times I want to work and stuff while I'm stoned, and normally sativas are better suited for that. They're also better suited to the outdoors. Hmmm, I guess if I had to choose only one though, it would be the indicas.

It's funny I used to be BIG on the indicas and am slowly changing over to the sativas myself in general.

Hereâ??s a photo of them from yesterday, when I put them under the new lights. The lights are 2, four foot, 54 watt, 6500K T5 fluoros. That should eliminate stretching, weâ??ll see. I swear I could nearly watch that darn cotton candy stretching. She never actually let me see any growth, but Iâ??d leave the closet for a few minutes, and when Iâ??d come back sheâ??d be taller.

Iâ??m not holding my breath on the church or the SNLxNH in the last photo, which hasnâ??t moved in 2 days. Also, I canâ??t tell if the 2nd from last photo is an example of damping off, or she just stretched so much that the stem couldnâ??t handle the weight. At the first bend, the stem is just a little smaller, which has me a little worried. Oh well, so far so good. Still 21 good ones at this point. Iâ??m happy so far.

Got a small oscillating fan on them, and switched lighting from 24/0 to 19/5. The ones on the left side are still on the heat mat. I had to water the ones in the perlite/vermiculite mix. It is drying much faster than the soil. Note to self: use higher concentration of vermiculite if making another seedling mix. Something like 70/30% vermiculite/perlite.

There were seed shells still holding the first foliage captive on 2. I picked them off, and nothing happened on the SNLxNH, but I got to watch as the WW slowly opened up. Never saw that before. I know, silly. But Iâ??m normally a cut and paste hydro, mother kinda guy, and donâ??t plant a lot of seeds. It was touching for me. Is that so wrong?

[Weedhound]

hmmmmmmmmmmmm.

Stake that snakey looking one. I don't really see a problem with the stem health myself and I think that's a pretty good photo. The ones I've capped by damping off have had definite brown rotting part right next to the soil in the stem. I don't see anything like that in yours.

F*#(@ church seeds. Give the other Snl x nh a bit more time if you can.

[Weedhound]

Yes....it's very wrong. WRONG WRONG WRONG!!

I'm always proud when I see that first teeny little set of true leaves all jagged and small.....:jointsmile:

[Weedhound]

You know opie if you very carefully bury all that six feet of stem on that long plant you'll have a short plant again and it will just turn into root.
