I just received communication that my buddy got the cheap seeds I bought from cannibusseeds.

I did a little homework on the quality, but decided to go for it anyway. seemed like a good deal.

I'm new and recently got the opportunity for free equipment and 3 free clones. Everything was going swimmingly till I went on vacation. A (not so) trusted buddy was to watch out for them and didn't. One of the drip heads had fallen off the rockwool cubes and actually fallen off the table.

This in turn ended up drianing the entire 25 gal kiddie pool on to the floor. Pick your friends wisley. Lesson learned.

Anywho, let's start the show.

I got 56 seeds from cannibisseeds and i am going to start all of them in a AeroGarden 6 (with optional garden starter tray)



This has a spot for 60 seeds. I will be planting them all.

Germinating the seeds. I am soaking them in water for 24hrs.
Let's begin

I am working with 3 different strains, and this is the ultimate test to see if they are what they say they are, and not just bagseed.

White Widdow - 28
Super Silver Haze - 12
Himalayan Gold - 14

Grand Total - 54



Now when I was younger I hear of people say that you could tell a seed was female by sticking it in a bowl of water and the female seeds would float to the middle, and the male seeds would float to the sides.

(again old wives tale) but, if this is the case...



All but 2 look good to me.

All the seeds have been on a 24 hr soak inside those shot glasses. I have moved them to the AeroGarden and set on the "Vegitable" setting.

I cut a rock wool cube up to put around the little grow pellets.



Here's how the first 4 look. These are the one's that first took off.



Then I added a whole bunch more....

The temp is never above 80F. Right Now I have 1 - 1000W on 24/7
when they go to the Flower 12/12. I will turn the other 1000W on and set them both to 12/12.

Well, it's been a while since my last update. Lost the camera. But here's updated pics.

I really am wondering the quality of the seeds I bought. They are in flower but they don't smell bad at all. Even after brushing up against them. Nothing.

There are a total of 8 plants that are female. 1 of those is a different strain. It started out as a "pigmy" we thought, but came to be the BEST looking one of the bunch.



and basically here is the rest. My whole table is FLOODED with this. don't get me wrong. there are buds, but they are so spaced apart, and every day I have to bend the branches down into the netting to keep from growing into the light.

I'm having a water leak problem. it keeps draining my reservoir. I just added some 6 mil plastic down to hopefully fix the problem. Doesn't seem to be dripping anymore.

The indica looking strain is doing quite nice. it's getting ripe


The sativa looking stuff is looking better, but still not like the other.
