Holy Snakes!!! 2 of the six seeds have popped up!!! I have killed or attempted to sprout no less than 35 seeds in the last 6 or 7 months. Now granted all except for these 6 were bag seed of unknown origin and maturity. I think most of my problems with the batch I attempted to sprout at the end of Nov. was the temps here in the apt. I have been sure I am cursed and never going to have success with seeds again. I looked in this am and saw one little sprout up, green, and proud. Then I noticed there was a piece of wood material about where I was expecting a sprout to appear. I removed it and there it was a little rumpled and not as green as it should be, a sprout! Maybe the curse is lifted and the rest will come up. I will take some pics when the sprouts will show up, they are a little small now. They are autos from Short Stuff, MI5. My lights need to improve quickly. I think I will have the funds to purchase a couple of Black Star 240W units next week. I have not had any smokes since Thanksgiving day so that first doobie will be great. I am glad since I have applied for a job as a door greater. The employer drug tests so I can pass easily. Hell I could pass a hair analysis at this point! I have worked for this employer before. They will not retest unless something that causes damage or a safety issue arises. Even if they do so what! My main purpose for getting the job is for something to do other than watch TV and talk to the cat. Well I need to charge the battery for my digital camera because I am sure they will be going into flower this afternoon and I will harvest tomorrow! :clap::clap::clap:
 
Congratulations on giving up the smokes! :D

I sure hope your camera gets charged in time to catch all the flowering! :check:

:smokeit:
 
MI5 is a great smoke. What kind of lights are you using right now?
 
some 6500K CFLs ... they should be OK with that for a week I would think ... I made myself a promise that I have broken ... I vowed to not start another grow until I had all of what I needed ... money is VERY tight and I am limping along ... sapphire I have not smoked because I could not afford to do so ... I am using a combo of NSIDS and opiates for pain control ... the opiates make me a "little" sick and I do not like them ... I can get all the dilaudid I want by asking ... anyway I should be able to get some BS 240's in the next week or so ... I am growing in a standard bathtub ... eventually I will have 2 of the 240W units overhead with 2 ufo's on each side and 1 at the front and 1 at the back to catch all buds as best I can ... I can get 10 3 gal bags in the tub comfortably ... I am using reg seeds and plan to pollinate one female from this batch ... that will give me a supply of seeds ... and weeding out the males in the future will turn this into a perpetual grow naturally ... I can order some seeds of a different strain from time to time for variety ... I really can't taste the differences all you folks talk about with the different strains that I have tried ... I took Muddy's advise and just planted the seeds about 1/2 inch deep this time ... another one is coming up ... all have pushed their way above ground without the seed shell stuck on them 3 as of mid day today ... they are in the final pot so no transplanting ... so no shocks from transplanting will stall these ... with a self generated seed source I plan to repeat this process ... if one does not come up just throw another seed in the ground ... GREAT news ... I just looked at the plants again and 4 are up with 2 to go ... I think the jinx has been lifted!!!
 
Wow this has indeed been a great day!!! I just looked and there are 5 sprouts up with only one to go ... I was disappointed when I first received the seeds ... they were not as dark and marbled as I was expecting ... but I pushed these in the ground on the evening of 3/7 and all but one are up 6 days later ... and I think I see the 6th starting to poke up ... no soak or paper towel just directly into the soil ... this makes me feel a lot better ... I have killed or attempted to germinate and sprout around 35 immature seeds since last autumn ... I was convinced I was the anti johnny dope seed!! ...
