Auto White Russian (White widow, AK47, Lowryder) grow with CFLs

[Fyfe]

Hey QueenBee looking good so far. So no sign of the other ryders yet?

mine broke through the soil this morning. i hope yours come through soon to.

 

[QueenBee]

The Lowryder seeds from my plants just arnt working. None of them have germinated. Is there something Ive missed?
I think Im going to have to plant the rest of the White Russian seeds coz ive only got a chance at 9 seedlings now ones died and last time out of 8 healthy seedlings I got 3 females so I better get them planted!

 

[Fyfe]

So there not showin any tap roots at all? You did them in soil didn't you? Maybe leave them another day and if no root maybe try just puttin them into a wet paper towel or cotton wool? I hope they work out. Did you see my purple seedlin? Its weird!

 

[QueenBee]

I might try doing some in cotton wool but i cant see why that would work when good old soil didnt. Doh, i was really excited about growing a second generation

 

[Fyfe]

So have you unearthed them to see that they haven't germed? It might not work with cotton wool but its always worth a try before you bin them? I hope they work out for ya.

 

[uk WeeD]

did you let them dry out a bit before you planted them?
they generally wont germ if there fresh off the plant

 

[QueenBee]

i still have 6 seeds left, Ill try letting them dry for a bit. Whats the best way to do it, just leave them out? How long do they need? Ive tried searching the net but I just get seed sites mostly! Thanks

 

[uk WeeD]

put them somewhere dark and cool and forget about em for 2/3 weeks

 

[QueenBee]

Ok cheers, ill do that with the 6 Ive got left. Ive left 2 ive already planted in the soil and taken the other 4 Lowryder seeds out of the soil and put them in cotton wool. I dont expect anything but its worth a try. Because the Lowryders arnt working im going to plant the rest of the WR seeds tonight. Oh well

 

[mr west]

they might dry out too and be ok in a few weeks lol

 

[QueenBee]

Y (the replacement seed for the dead seedling) is through today! Also I planted another 2 seeds (T and U). So I now have 3 seeds of WR and 4 seedlings. Im leaving the last 2 seeds I have left. Last time I got 3 females out of 8 seedlings. Im hoping for at least 3 out of 7. Sorry its all so confusing with planting them at different times, its been a bit of a mess so far!

 

[QueenBee]

Forgot to wait for the pics to finish uploading. Oopsie

 

[mr west]

o almost do that every tome lol.puff puff pass>>>>>>

 

[QueenBee]

Everythings still moving along today. Y is open now and is a proper mini plant and i uncovered the top of V when I watered it so thats on its way. Z, X, and W are the bigger ones in the pic, U and T are White Russian seeds that should be a few more days yet and V is in the other bottle ready to come up soon. Am i making sense? Lol whatever

 

[Fyfe]

it makes sense to me anyway, just glad you stuck the letters on the pots or it would have been real confusing

Glad to see there coming on good.

 

[QueenBee]

Yea and i got it all written down what day which letters were planted on and when they came thru just incase I confuse myself!

 

[Fyfe]

how bout some new pics queenbee?

or has nothing chaged in the last couple of days?

 

[hmmm123]

Yay for more pics! waits lol.

how bout some new pics queenbee?

or has nothing chaged in the last couple of days?

 

[QueenBee]

Ok then heres a new pic from today! V is properly up and so is U or T (didnt look which one) so Im just waiting for one seed now and that'l give me 7 plants. The oldest ones are 10 days old. I dont think theyre off as fast as my Lowryders were; maybe its using the 125w to start with and not the 250w like I had the LRs under. Did I say these are now under the 250w? Well they are, coz all my Lowryders are gone so I only have these ones now.
