I decided to germinate a package of Sunshine #2 seeds (from THC seed bank?) and now have three plants at about two weeks growth, in two gallon pots. The one thing that I have noticed, unlike any other grow that I can remember, is the apparent "runtiness" of all three plants. It has been my experience, that wth other plants under HPS, there has been noticeable bushiness in growth, especially in plants over six to seven inches in height. However, as I have not been able to gleen any information on this strain, I cannot be sure if I am growing a Sativa-dominant, Indica, or, a mix of the two. I am only guessing, but I think that these young plants are showing Sativa traits.
I am growing them in Miracle Grow and worm castings, under a 150 watt HPS (under 4 sq. ft), watering with pH adjusted water w/ Pirrahna micorhyzal (sp?) root stimulator and molasses, once weekly, for the first month.
I also have added a translucent top to the plants, with holes for ventilation and transpiration. Temps are at 82-86 lights on, about 65-68, lights off. I have a household fan for ventilation and extraction above the grow box and it keeps things from getting too moist and hot.
But still, what is this Sunshine no. 2? I have found what I believe to be a Sunshine #1, that was marketed as a mixed pack, about 6 years ago. I got the seeds as a freebie.
Thanks in advance
