I think it took about 2 or 3 days before they cracked. Did you germinate them in tissue first or just put them straight into soil?

Yeah they're doin great thanks, no pics today but i'll get some tomorrow
I posted my germination/planting method a few posts back if you want to see what i did. i had the main soil/perlite mix 3/4 of the way up a cup and the very top used just soil sprayed with water. I think this helps keep the perlite down away from the first roots so that the seed has planty of loose soil to start in. Might be worth just scraping back a little soil on top very carefully to see if its trying to push upwards. I did have one that was growing upside down!? so i carefully flipped it over and its fine now. hope this helps

Glad to be on board, and thanks for the welcome. With those great genetics, and as long as you guys stay on top of things you should have a plentiful harvest.

All new seeds have cracked and been planted (27 altogether) except 4/5 of the Red Dragons and 1 Diesel. Can't complain really but i may e-mail attitude or barneys farm and ask them about the dragons if they don't crack. Also, randomly, the bag seeds i had from a few weeks ago, i left in a glass of water and noticed 1 had cracked so thats been planted too. If it's what i think it is it could well be the best smoke out of all of them!!
The first batch are less than a week away from going into flowering now. a couple have purple branch stems (trainwreck i think) and 1 church in particular is getting wilted, shrivelled,brown leaves at the bottom and is looking small and neglected. Weird cos the conditions have been exactly the same for it as another church which is growing faster than everything else. I guess this is just genetic but if it dies alls not lost. Here's some pics of the problem church plus some others...
they lookin good there my dude! u got maaaad cups lol u gonna be straight! my wreck will be done on the 13th and my ai on the 20th cant wait to see your though yall keep lovin them girls!

3 more days of veg left! For the last week of veg we've switched from 24hr light to 18/6 just to help set up strong roots for flowering.Got a new reflector for the 400w today so just gotta get a 400w MH bulb and the veg/mother room will be ready to set up. Gonna build it at the weekend hopefully
Bought some Ionics soil grow yesterday and getting the bloom and boost this weekend. Also found an old rat-cage lying around which'll be perfect for a cloning chamber but that won't be used til april
Some white widow coming tomorrow too, dunno how many, my friends germing them
Some new pics-

what a result! excellent choice of strains as well. my order will be very similiar. Cant wait to see the development during flowering. How long did you allow these to stay in veg? Are you expecting 9-10 weeks for flowering?

Vegging for 4 weeks and then planning on flowering for about 8 but that will depend on the strains, since we've got some that reportedly flower in 5-6 weeks and others in 10-12 that time could vary a lot. I guess they'll just be done when they're done.

Built a temporary mother room yesterday cos the builders yard was closed so until we get some timber then we're gonna have to use this. Its just an old cupboard thing we lined out with mylar. I fixed a few small computer fans in the sides and a new 400w MH but after covering it to stop any light leaks, the temperature inside got way too hot way too quick so we've moved it into another room for the time being.10 white widows added plus 1 more Red Dragon finally germed. also ordered more from attitude -
20 Big Buddha Cheese Fem
5 Seedsman Mamma Mia Fem
2 Greenhouse seeds Himalayan Gold Fem
plus freebies -
5 G13 Labs Thai Super Skunk (not fem)
1 Super Skunk Fem
1 Pure Gold Fem
1 Diesel Fem
1 Purple Lady Fem
£126 for the lot with discount code 420
Added another 600w HPS and bought new bulbs for all lights plus bought the Bloom and Boost nutes from Ionics
So now we have 3x600w HPS, 1x400w MH and 1x200w CFL
Apart from the 3 mothers and the babies all are now officially on flowering time!!!
