All three look good! They’re a lil stretchy, which makes sense since they’re under my weak light in the mornings since it’s too cold to set them out at the start of the day. One looks amazing, one looks good, one seems pretty feeble. I put two pictures up of that one because it looks like...

General outdoor growing question: Since the mornings will be in the low sixties, should I put the seedlings out in the morning and maximize their ability to get sun, or put them out around noon (when it gets to around 70), and give them less sun?

Seeing green! I’ll pop these lil maniacs today when it starts to warm up around noon and I’ll have my wife put them back inside this evening. I’m going to a church overnight event, so we’ll see how they’re doing when I get back on Sunday. Man, these seeds popped up quick! I’m used to the...

New seeds! I’m now doing the Instant Classik from Night Owl! Is the Pre 98 Episode 1 F4 with Marathon OG F3. Apparently, this stuff is pretty high test! Hope to not screw this one up!

Welp, lesson learned. Luckily, I had such a jump on it, I can get it going next week. I’ll pick up some new seeds this week and get it right this weekend! I’m going away for a men’s retreat with my church this weekend and when I come back, I’ll hopefully see some sprouts!

They’re autos. I think that’s the right call.

I’m a dummy. Put them out today for sun and domes them under a plastic cup and fried one of them. I got these two indoors now. Do you think I should bin the whole bit and start over?

They popped their little heads out today! Pictures tomorrow!

Thanks! I find that since I only grow in the summers I’m much more risk averse. I’ll try that next summer with a seed and see how it feels!

Man, they blew up during the day today! Got to about a fingernail length, so popped them into some lightly moistened soil and they’re off!!! I don’t want to move the pots around a lot since they were just buried. I have them in a separate office, so I figured I’d keep them there until they...

After a 14 hour soak and 24 hours in the paper towel, they’re making moves! It doesn’t look like I’ll get them into the ground on Friday like I had hoped, but maybe the next 24 hours brings along some more progress! I tend to put mine in when the tail is at about half an inch, but some of...

In the paper towel! 2/3 are already showing some pop! The third could come around, but we’ll see! I’ve got a good jump on it, so no need to rush it!

Thanks! She’s been generally kind the past two summers, but I know that she’s a fickle minx. Luckily, since I’m such a lightweight, I’m easy to please!

Tonight I’m beginning the germ! The hope is to get them in the ground Friday morning. We have a big rain on Thursday, so I figure a 12-hour soak and then two days in the paper towels should be good! We’ll be rain free for a week, so good conditions for growing (and fishing)! Soil: Coast of...

That tracks. Smoked some of my neighbors Northern Lights tonight, and it gets me excited about growing this summer! I’ve been reading reviews/journals on these seeds, and it looks like some great stuff!
