So, I pull what few seeds I could find out of a fantastic bag of weed, and start researching just about anything I could find on Marijuana. I buy a few lil pots and germinate the seeds in a glass of water, which might I add these things sprouted fast. Now mind you, its probably better to use the paper towel method, but I am a noob and hadnt read that one yet at the time of germinating. So I figured, hey, these things are probably going to die, being that at first they developed a weird moldy fungus in their first batch of soil, which I used from some old pots frozen and covered in snow and last summer's dead vegetation lol. So I corrected the situation and found some african violet soil in the shed at my mommas house, and "borrowed" the bag. Its the middle of winter here in Massachusetts and cold as a welldigger's ass. After pulling them from the old, used, contaminated with whatever fungus soil, I washed them all off with slightly warm water. Now Im like, shit these things are definitely gonna die. Its too cold, you arent even using a grow lamp yet, and they are probably getting more dark than light. Anyway, I replant them in nice fresh soil, african violets will probably grow instead lol.
I have touched the roots in the process of cleaning and transplanting, accidentally pulled one of the 3 sprouts out by accident and replanted them in better materials, and would you friggin believe they are alive! and not only alive, but very very green, no yellows or browns, though the stems are slightly bergundyish in color. I know I know, with my luck they will all be males, but it sure is exciting to imagine that even though its only 3 plants, maybe, just maybe, I will be lucky and the Gods will see fit to allow me one decent harvest of my own, organic lovely bag of bud. Folks these seedlings are no more than 2 inches tall out of the pots but I swear they have survived about every form of abuse I clumbsily dished out. Im watering them about every 2-3 days. Trying to give them as much sunlight as I can, which isnt easy indoors and in winter. Anyway, Im going to buy a lamp today. Worse I have to fear is having to start again only in better conditions. The fungus is completely gone and they almost lean towards the direction of the sun. How I will ever bring myself to smoke these lil guys when they grow up Ill never know. I have grown attached. They are like my little retarded children that refused to go down without a fight. So, there you have it, my story. 3 lil 2 week old buds that have not had an easy birth. I guess my question to you guys being that your experts, is what should I do now? Do you think the cold climate has guaranteed all male plants and Im screwed no matter what I do?
Or do you think my plants will be SUPER POT! Having survived the worst that nature and dumb humans have to offer, and is guaranteed to get me so high that I try to communicate with insects and small rodents?
Im not sure when to switch to bigger containers, when to change the soil etc. I guess any oddball advice or tips for such a small indoor harvest is what Im looking for. No interest in selling, I just want me and my friends to partake in the delight of a hard earned home grown bag of doobage.
Anyway, thats my story, these plants are about 2 weeks old, maybe more. They are growing a little slow, but look so damn green and healthy.
