White Lemon Grow Journal

39 posts in this topic

Strain- Greenhouse seed's White Lemon (el nino x slh)

Medium- canna coco pro+

Nutrients- Greenhouse powder Feeding Hybrids & Canna with all additives(for direct comparison)

method- Atami wilma's recirculating systems using airstones/curtains in each tank.

Lighting- For seedling stage I will start using 125w duall spec CFL, then will switch to 400w metal halide

for the remainder of the veg period.

when flowering I will be using 1 x 600w hps. per wilma 4.

Ok time to start germing the beans now, I will place the seed's into shot glasses

filled with cold tap water (ph=5.9 direct from tap and e.c does not even register as anything on truncheon) left to sit at room temperature for a few hours. after 24 hours I will see which seed's

sink and will switch em over to the moist tissue method till they sprout.post-15096-0-96888300-1351816883.jpgpost-15096-0-66326000-1351816906.jpgpost-15096-0-86606900-1351816935.jpgpost-15096-0-37890200-1351816952.jpg as you probably realised I am also germing some more strains but in this thread will only be focusing on white lemon. I will add another thread covering the other strains progress though.

Well guy's that's it for today will update daily to chart progress. I would just like to say thank you to all at greenhouse seed's for allowing me to participate in this fantastic competition

Good luck to all of you and may the best person win.Peace

Ok time to move the seeds to the wet towel/tissue Firstly I fold some tissue and place it in a saucer then wet it slightly. I then place the seeds on said wet tissuepost-15096-0-81568100-1351872788.jpg

next step is I fold another piece of tissue and place this over the seeds dry.post-15096-0-70693100-1351872801.jpg

I then moisten the top tissue, and use a 2nd saucer inverted making a cool little flying saucer post-15096-0-07816700-1351872815.jpg post-15096-0-22111800-1351873828.jpgpost-15096-0-58202000-1351872827.jpgpost-15096-0-29005700-1351872841.jpg

I will now store them in a warm cupboard (30-32°Celcius) until they start to sprout. I will also give the tissue a spray of water every 6hrs or so to make sure it remains damp.

Well that's about it for today will update next when the seeds begin to sprout.Peace

Ok thats what I thought, but I've read some people only will keep thier seeds in h20 for 12 hours... I personally consider myself a 24hr optimist as well :)

thanks for the info...bring on the sprout! :biggrin:

Well guy's just had a look at the babies and 6 of 6 have cracked. :biggrin:post-15096-0-09299600-1351968601.jpg

I'm now soaking some peat pellet's in plain old Scottish tap water that I have left to sit at room temperature for 2 hours. Ph 5.9, e.c 0.0 (doesn't register below 0.2 on my truncheon)

post-15096-0-72165400-1351969858.jpg

I will place the seed's in the pre-shaped hole in the pellet's covering them with peat and giving them a light spray of water to water them in. Remembering to keep them moist! not soggy or sodden. I will now return them to the warm cupboard again until they break the surface. I will update as soon as it happens.

I would like to take the time here to thank everybody for their fantastic comment's and word's of encouragement on this my first ever grow journal. God bless you all. Peace

About us

Strain Hunters is a series of documentaries aimed at informing the general public about the quest for the preservation of the cannabis plant in the form of particularly vulnerable landraces originating in the poorest areas of the planet.

Cannabis, one of the most ancient plants known to man, used in every civilisation all over the world for medicinal and recreational purposes, is facing a very real threat of extinction. One day these plants could be helpful in developing better medications for the sick and the suffering. We feel it is our duty to preserve as many cannabis landraces in our genetic database, and by breeding them into other well-studied medicinal strains for the sole purpose of scientific research.
