13V update!
Top row: Liberty Haze x 2
Middle row: Royal Gorilla and Amnesia x OG
Front row: White Widow and Violator Kush
Violator Kush is the star of our show. I'm happy this is the case as it's the best one for my medical needs. She's about a little ahead of where my fall VK was at this point, right in line with where my Critical was. This bodes well.
White Widow is growing vigorously, but it's really odd growth. Would the trauma I caused her as a seedling be causing this? Or could it be a poor seed? I lean towards the seed given that the growth is fast. I have so many White Widow seeds I'm wondering at what point I should consider her a waste of time and move on.
Amnesia x OG was one of the seedlings that went in 2 days later, so technically she's 11V. I was surprised to go back and see that she and VK are both probably among the fastest starts I've ever had. She's about the same in development as the Critical from my aborted fall grow as well. She's 3 days ahead of the lead 24K from my first grow. She's pretty much claiming her spot in flower.
Royal Gorilla finally looks like she's back in action. I planted her on the 26th, so she's 9V. I also knocked her out of the solo cup after half a day in it, so she definitely had to give over some time to recovery. She first poked her head up on the 29th, which was 4V. Shot those first leaves out and then not much else. But her first set of true leaves - node 2 - is finally moving, so I know she's on her way. And I checked my fall grow, and my RG seedling then was only slightly ahead of this pace. Maybe she'll make it in time for flower with this round after all - moving Widow to the sidelines.
Liberty Haze is also recovering well after the slow start.
Liberty Haze 1, the seed that took 4 days to germ, is moving after her slow start, but a couple of days behind the other plants in this grow and my last in progress.
No big deal, given
Liberty Haze 2 - like the Candida from my fall grow she's quite clearly a sativa, and she's actually a little ahead of the fall Candida.
Altogether after the slow start, things are really coming around. Violator Kush, Amnesia x OG, and even my 2nd Liberty Haze are vigorous plants set to impress. Royal Gorilla looks set to make it happen too. Liberty Haze 1 is going to sit on the sidelines and bide her time. Who knows that I'll do with White Widow. If I was a betting man, I'd bet the flower lineup looks set to be:
Violator Kush
Liberty Haze
Amnesia x OG
Royal Gorilla
Learning tip: If you have the patience for it, and you want to really be able to compare to previous grows to learn, take lots of dated photos. I put the strain name and date in the filename to make timing and strain easy to track down. Comparing these was a cinch, so I could quickly see where I stood.
Confidence level is rising once again - I think we might be in for a show! Thanks for following along!
