Testing The ViparSpectra XS1000 With VetSmoke85

Interesting @VetSmoke85 - never seen dropping the seed right in perlite. I guess you just bury it a little bit and keep the perlite moist? Then what do you do after they outgrow the solo cup?

Yeah I don't think it's the standard way but it worked with the autos so I thought I'd try it again. Make mini Hempy buckets with the party cups and then give the top a spray once or twice a day to make sure it stays moist. Think the main drawback is that the perlite doesn't always pull off the casing as it emerges. Seems to germinate them well though.

Once the roots have a good hold in the cup they get transplanted into their final buckets.

Oh I see, mini hempys. So how does one keep the perlite off the bottom and separate it from the bottom open “reservoir” part? A cut cup in the cup?

There is no separation. Same as a pure perlite bucket. Drill a hole, dump in perlite, done. Lol.

Little preview for the upcoming @Mars Hydro sponsored journal. Dropped the seeds straight into perlite 3 days ago. Presoaked the perlite with Shogun katana roots. Looks like we'll have 5 from 5. The Skunk in the back right looks like it may need a hand shedding that helmet.

We have Skunk, Pungent Skunk, Platinum Cookies, Godfather OG and the 1:1 med.

Thanks all. Just that Skunk to shed the casing and I'll have 5 starters. I'll give her until tomorrow afternoon and then might have to perform some surgery. Hoping she cracks it overnight.
 
I'm in,Vet!
Your germination method is pretty effing cool-
that looks like something that even I couldn't screw up!
