It hangs sleepless again, Joe. Thanks for asking.
Been going through quite a few of these..
It is striped with rosin on the inside of the paper. Very tasty too! Need to make more rosin tomorrow. And that’s ok because I’m nearly at a harvest and still have jar stock. ((Yay!)
Here is this week’s Seedsman update. 8 weeks today since I flipped the switch on the bloom room. Worth a look for the pictures.
Got a couple of montages. Here’s one:
This is AP1, Alaskan Purple. The science experiment with no nodes from last week?
The bottom picture is day 11 for her. She seems to have grasped the idea of new growth, but so far has forgotten to add stalk.
We’ll see how she goes.
Meanwhile, there was another bean dropped.
The bean on the left is Chem4xUzbeki and one I was particularly looking forward to running. Both beans sank in 18 hrs. Both were rattled in a pill bottle lined with sandpaper then soaked in RO H2O with a drop of H2O2. The CxU bean is five days in a paper towel now
and the third of the ten year old beans from Hawaii that I haven’t popped. I read somewhere about giberelic (sp?) acid being used to coax old beans to life so I’m going to bone up on that a bit.
AP2 got going ok though. Three days after the glass she was up. Kind of.
i could not encourage the seed husk off because it was still intact. I took the smallest pair of pliers I have and squeezed.
I was surprised how much pressure it took to break it, then wondered for a day whether I’d crushed the precious cargo.
She got a bit of green and opened up ok.
Day three and already looking more convincing than AP1 at this stage.
I was going to wait for real stems between nodes before journaling her arrival, but here we are. Fingers crossed.
What else? I cut up the curly wurly CPK clone and have five cuts I’m hoping to root. The four cuts of Isabelle Purple I took 17 days ago still aren’t obviously dead
I’ve taken their domes off and we are hoping for the best.
Thank you, guys
Stay safe please everyone!
not bragging for its own sake
New sprouts!
