I think I will take a seat and watch the ride. I hope to see you with some Star Pupil growing in he future. I have a pack but have no idea when I will get to growing them. It looks like you got a decent amount of freebies with your Gorilla order. That is always exciting :)

Hey Yeti, welcome to Stankville brother. I had one seed that I got from a buddy, but it was a bit crushed. I have it in a cup of soil right now hoping for the best. If by some miracle she makes it.....I will make some feminized seeds. Heard great things about the strain so I am looking forward to getting my dirty mitts on some! Yeah I was pretty happy with the freebies that Gorilla Seeds threw in there.

Hey Stank... check this out... I pollinated Devils Tit (the large pheno) with a smallish male Purple Monkey Balls. My thoughts were to tame the size of that large DT pheno and maybe shorten the flower time down to 65-70 days.

This is the PMB female main cola I just put into flower 10 days ago - she turned into the largest plant I've grown indoors. She grew at least a foot overnight and in an hour while I was fiddling around taking pics - the side branches grew into the lamps. So much for a plan... maybe this should be an outdoor strain. Thinking I should grow this cross outside in Canada this summer. Her sister is showing flowers while still in VEG @ 18" tall... I tied her down.. the droop is gone now. She was sad she ran out of room:

Her cell mate -Dolato #1 main cola - can see the burn leaves as she grew past the lamps:

Lets get this party started! Yeah u right! Congrats on seedlings... may they bring much happiness! :Namaste:

What am I seeing haha that's nuts
 
Hey Van! I was amazed how quickly your seeds germinated and sprouted. I was fixing to drop a new seed into water, so I went back to re-read the first page of this journal and noticed you put them into H2O2 for 10 minutes before dropping into water. I'd never read of that before. Could you explain the benefit? :) Thanks, brother! Your babies look so pretty.

I can't remember where I read it, but the grower liked to soak the seeds in a water/hydrogen peroxide mix at a 4:1 ratio. The growers logic is the seed soaking in there for a few minutes would kill any potential yucky stuff that might be on the seeds shell. I just want to give the seed every opportunity to not just survive, but thrive. I don't know how much there is really to worry about but all I do is get a little bowl and pour 4 tablespoons of water and 1 tablespoon of Hydrogen Peroxide and let them sit for 10 minutes and then into regular water for the full soak.

Same thing I do, is helpful for germinating older seeds as well.

A breeder in the Netherlands told me once to create a .03% RO water / Peroxide solution. I use 30% peroxide, so I add 1 ml peroxide to 100 ml RO.

Has worked beautifully for me. :thumb:
 
Seedling Day 3 Update

Not a lot to report. The seedlings are doing what they do. Most of the action is taking place below the dirt line. Leaves are getting a little bigger. Starting tomorrow, I will be introducing a little fan time to the seedlings for some stem strengthening. The cups still show a lot of signs of moisture, so no need to water yet.

Yeah I am happy with their early stage vigor. Hope it carries through out the entire grow. I feel pretty good about them right now. Now on to plan the start of the perpetual. First up will be Ms Stank doing her maiden grow.....with two regular Harlequin BX4 from BC Bud. After that I have to decide if I want to go with what I have planned for a while (Blue Dream) or if I should kick of my portion of the perpetual with one of Stank Genetics strains.....either ATF x Blueberry (Stankberry) or the ATF x Durban Poison (Durban Thunderfuck). Seems fitting to start with one of our crosses, but I have been craving that Blue Dream for a while LOL.
 
And of course I would have to do two beans because they are regulars as well. I was leaning toward the Stankberry because I love Blueberry....but I also love that Durban Poison. And I forget how much fun starting new beans can be! I am having a hard time not going overboard! MUST STICK TO THE PLAN!!!!
