- Growing of new cross of Pink Malabar and X18
Many Thanks @Comacus this is a new cross of
(Uzbeckistani AKA Pink Malabar from USC x X18 IBL from Tom Hills)
start [re-start] half pack seeds in paper towel and put them in solo cups. sprouted tails in 24 hours and took off in the solos but they fell down after a week - only thing I could figure was the potting mix was too ‘hot’ - I started the rest of the pack and put them in used potting mix and now they are growing great. Also, I had infant mortality on one seed that the taproot grew in a corkscrew and now I question which end is “up” on seeds. I have just moved them to 4L after two week in Solo Cups; I’ve never seen roots so vigorous.
- Moving them to 18/6 VEG for ~4 weeks - we’ll see what the growth is like.
