As my other journals have music and people seem to have been liking it thus far, ill go ahead and include that in this Journal. The Tunes: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_D5WyC4F2F8 Setting up a Stone Wool 5.5gal "AirPot" to test this strain. Will be using my own mix of neuts including V+B & GH + white willow bark powder extract 100%. The Green Crack feminized seed is from 420FastBud and sounds joyful! I got two airpots for free from points I had at a store I hate, but hey they were free I cant complain.
About to start prepping stone wool for the packing, there will be layers of looser chunked up stone wool as well as tight layers which should send the roots out before allowing them to go further down with 4 thick layers, one final thick layer at the bottom with chunk at the top. Very exited to try this method as I have used Stone Wool before, but not like this. Should be interesting to say the least ;p This lady will start under a 150w and be moved into the flowering tent in about three weeks or so to finish under 3x SP3000's in total, however I dont think they will all be over this plant LOL regardless 900w finishing watts. Let the grow begin 1/1/2021
Seem to be having issues posting...ok its kind of working now.

Prepping almost complete:
Got my new clone/seedling area set up with a small t5 and blurple
This was a total DIY with me having to secure the shelf with zip ties(it worked!) and running a long string of blurple in and out of the shelf rungs is holding them up just fine! A few more hours till the drop!!
Tunes for this morning: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K40aI0h2vAU
Seeds were dropped in 300EC(RO+Clonex gel) PH6.9 for three hours then put into a tupperware and put into the seed dome on the heat mat at 80F. Will check on them tomorrow night. Peace love and chicken grease yall happy newyear!
Now I just need to get a drain set up and feed bucket with halo installed before she's ready to be potted up into the stone wool 5.5gal air pot.

Well its been 48 hours and it still hasn't even cracked. Very interesting as Choo's(same package) is growing nicely...almost thinking about dropping another incase this one doesn't crack. Its a small seed so it really shouldn't have had any issues with penetration of moisture, and I had 5 other seeds in the same drop crack and are in solo cups now...so ya. That being said, I have seen some seeds take weeks to sprout....probably will drop another tonight and keep the last one going, might switch it over to a plastic bag as opposed to the tupper ware.

The power of symbiotic relationships goes far beyond just tokin it!
Ok so I went ahead and dropped another green crack seed, leaving it soak for a few hours longer than last time, this seed also just looks better overall so fingers crossed:
I read a few reviews and saw a couple peeps talking about 4/5 in a bag are successful germ...we shall see 🧐

The Morning Update:
So the second seed cracked and has a radicle woot! waiting for it to get longer before putting it into the stonewool cylinder. thought it was a good idea so I had them soak in the same solution the seed got dropped in. The radicle looks good so far but I didn't want to expose it to the light too much so put er back on the heat mat in the dome.

The Morning Update: So the second seed I dropped put out enough radicle that I felt comfortable putting her into a stone wool cylinder, have her currently on the cloner as they are getting the best RH control currently. As I didn't want to expose the radicle to much light yet, still waiting on pics, she hasn't popped her head out so nothing to see yet anyways hehe. Hopefully see this lady poke her head out in the next few days we shall see. Fed her 500EC at 6.0EC and she had the cylinder soak so should be good to go 😎 🤓 🧐 😇 🤠

Well I finally did it, shes into the stonewool cylinder yehaa, here we go:
I figured Ozzy would be a good one for this as its Green Crack lol. Gotta love the Oz ;p

The Update:
She's still alive, I can see a nice white root stem getting longer. looks like she still has not poked her head up yet:
Been fertigating 3x/d at 400EC per my standard seedling feed until I see she wants more...supposed to beg for it during flowering so rock and roll little one do me proud 😉

I grew up listening to these guys since I was like idk 11-12yrs of age lol. Not too fond of the new stuff but the older stuff from this era was some of the best punk you could get your hands on! imo. Anywho its that time folks, The Morning Update:
Green Crack is alive and kicking, I expect her to poke her head out maybe tomorrow or the next day when she will get put into the stone wool 5.5gal airpot, pretty exited to see how this goes:
When I took the stone wool cylinder off to check it for moisture it almost looked dark...then I remembered duhhh I soaked it in Clonex, its just the residue left over from getting fertigated(2x/d currently at 400EC ph5.8.
