Mmmm about 50% and 100% in the end they are reg autos so I expect some to be males which if a couple interest me I’ll use otherwise “off with their heads”.

Day 5 on these

Also thinking of re potting the small patio seedling, there are random seeds ive found on the patio that get lost or ejected when seed sorting and i don’t know where they came from so they just get put into that pot.

Day 9.

The one plant now front left was looking pretty rough and kinda looking like over fert and maybe some root damage, so top watered with straight water and run off was abit high so just top watered everything with about 500ml of water each and discarding the run off which brought there run off down to that 1.3-1.4ec range the majority of the plants look like they appreciated it.

Also turned up the light to full aka 97w on this driver with this strip combo.

Day 12 on these, Tossed the struggling plant mentioned in the last update, also to note if the front left plant in the bins is doing the mutant growth thing which isn’t unexpected being it has some of those Purple lemonade genes in there which i was hoping was avoided but obviously not, if it grow out of it good otherwise it goes.
