Hello Fellow Gardeners,

I was lucky enough to be chosen as a seed tester for East Coast Farmers new autoflowering strain, Pink Diesel.
I am a medicinal cannabis patient, here in California, and have been growing for over a decade (on and off).
This grow will be taking place outdoors, on my porch, under the beautiful California sun.
Now, to introduce the rest of the cast.

Here are my lovely test seeds, East Coast Farmers was kind enough to hook me up with two packs, to which I say thank you.
For the purposes of this grow, I will only be running one pack of seeds at this time.
As you can see, the seeds are very mature, and look great.

My grow medium of choice, Happy Frog.

My nutrients of choice, General Organics.

And finally here we have my porch, now inhabited by ten, 2 gallon containers.
Each is full of Happy Frog, reverse osmosis water, and a Pink Diesel seed.

Thank you.
 
Damn, it's been raining all night, and it's supposed to do more of the same today.
I used to have more of an overhang that I could shelter the little ones under, but the apartment complex cut it off last fall.
What little bit of the overhang that's left just isn't getting the job done.
This is going to make for a bumpy start for my babies, as the rain water is sure to throw the soil pH out of balance.
 
Update, 9 out of 10 seeds have sprouted, so far.
Sorry, my camera's macro setting wouldn't focus on the sprout itself, but you get the idea.

...and God said let there be height!
I added some shelving to lift the pots up higher, so they can get more sunlight over the course of the day.

Update:
I brushed aside some dirt to see what was up with the lone seed that didn't break ground.
She won't be joining us in the world of the living

So nine plants it is, which is cool since nine is a magic number, via it's association with three.
 
Update

Here's a shot of all 9 of my lovely babies, soaking up the sun, just before watering.

demonhaze, I think those pics should answer any questions about their health so far ;)
 
It rained again last night, but my babies held their ground.
Temperatures should get into the mid 70's this week, with lows around 50.
Spring is starting to really get into full swing.
 
Update

It's been about 2 weeks now since I planted the Pink Diesel seeds and there coming along nicely.
They're growing very uniform so far, as you can see in these shots from today, just before watering.
