Aloha,

Here is my start. Ordered seeds from Holland? that came so stealth that im not sure what they are lol.
Going to take better notes from the order next time.

Soaked 7 seeds overnight. Placed them in a handful of 50/50 pete moss/coco. This was inside the 5 gallon container. The mix in the buckets is 50 bag soil and 50 an ag mix that has fish etc added over the last year plus.
Thought was no transplanting. Now that I've had to move them a dozen times or so I'm rethinking this. Maybe 1 gallon to start next time ...
6 of the 7 popped
Here they are!
Beautiful and sunny today. 80 degrees and light breeze.

Feel free to post. Looking for improvements/suggestions.
Keep it Aloha though

Ensure you have the weather for this, but above all avoid growing in local dirt/soil
use local potting mix or Fox Farm Ocean Forest with 30% perlite,
you will need that perlite in Hawaii

Yes , I didn't list the perlite. It was added.
Not 30 percent though. You do that on top of what the bag soil has?

I'm a little early for the season but stays pretty dry here.

Perlite will reduce the forthcoming nute burn by assisting draining, diluting the hot soil effects, and reduce root compaction ..wait and see?

You're off to a good start. Seems like you have a decent organic soil mix you should have some happy seedlings. I would agree and say start them off in smaller pots to establish a stronger root system.

Yes on the smaller pots.
Going with 1 gallon to start with the same soil mix again. Then will move into a ten gallon smart pot.

So the seed company helped me out with what I had ordered.

Here is the list:
Pineapple Haze
Super Silver Haze
White Widow
Bubble Gum

Pretty happy on that line up. Still not sure which ones are which but time might tell or maybe some riu input

So there was some wind in the forecast so put in stakes just for safety.

This one was topped and has done good with the daylight available. More of a fruity smell. Very nice.

Next set ready. Little closer to the right outdoor time. Maybe the clones from these will be just right for timing of daylight. Maybe get em a little bigger
