Wow very impressive dude. 
Mine will be a little more simple than that.
Very excited to see how these turn out.
Let the games begin!

Believe it or not this was harder to write up than it was to construct.

@Sebring it was professionally put together and I loved the added touch, great jobā:clap:
@Fewding thatās kinda hard to beat, donāt feel bad, my logs arenāt that great either heheā

Youāre soil formula made me drool! (Yeah Iām a bit off) Iām taking notes!!!

Iām really lazy, like F*CK work lazy, but I learned a long time ago that you have to put in a lot of work first to earn those lazy stretches, so I started researching how to make perfect soil and what each part did. Iām to the point that I can almost tell what my soil is lacking, or will lack, just based on what the plants are doing. If I get around to it Iāll list some of the stuff I use with why I use it when I use it and what itās entire effect is on the microbiology, macrobiology and the plant.
I also spent years making every mistake you can, even going so far as to introduce mistakes just to see what the effect would be. Yep, Iām THAT guy. 
What I learned was that at least half of all the stuff the average grower tells you to do/not do is complete garbage. Itās not their fault though. They did something one time and mis-attributed it to a positive effect, e.g. apple sales correlating with tampon sale doesnāt mean apples cause women to have periods.

Everything that itās happening, whenever you have a chance!

Going over the thread i see they went in the pellets, i forgotā¦ What was i talking about?
Will need to wait a few days before cotyledons showā¦
Good.

Lol, yes, I āsoak my seedsā in the soil. Iāve found the best success by putting scuffed seeds into aseptic peat plugs soaked in water, with a sprinkle of humics and mycorrhiza. I started years ago my mimicking nature 100% and worked at removing things that caused lowered survival rates or werenāt showing improved rates. Once I see cotyledons theyāll get transplanted to their final home. If you have the room to do it that way then it eliminates the stresses we donāt want.
I tried a bunch of different media, coconut water, sst, aloe, etc. They werenāt bad, they just werenāt better. #litfa

Would this team be in on it to make sure and we preserve the genetics by mailing samples of cuts to the people interested in doing the TC thingā¦?

Iām all for any and all community participation, and I think this idea took our project to a whole new levelā:+1: awesome guys Iām thrilled

Absolutely! Especially off of f1. Itās good to have that around as a rubric or breeding goal.
Easiest way to go is to pick a good f1 and use its traits to measure against the following generations.
Having a clone mother will give us something to compare against for selection.

If they send me their preferred aseptic protocol Iām in!
Posting tool is telling me to post fewer times, so Iām just adding to this one!
I will need to sex the plants and I have two options.
- pay phylos $200 to have it done.(3 weeks from germination)
- cut a clone when I top the plants, put them in a bubble cloner and flip to 12\12 light.(6-8 weeks from germination)
Thoughts or advice? Is there a method Iām not thinking of?

Once I make my visit to the place and have everything I will tell you. For sure.
Thanks actually.

This is super exciting man! WOOHOO!!!
The rest will surely follow in no more than 12~24 hours. You will see.

Itās not very often that Iāve had seeds this vigorous, so Iām sure the other 6 will be quick to follow. 
Update: this morning, 11 of 12 were reaching for the sky!
Update 2: received & paid my invoice for lights from @beaudelaire. They should be shipped soon.
(10) SolStix X3 2700/5700k
(2) Mean Well HLG 320w dimmable driver 36v type A
(2) 36" SolStix Rack kit
Update 3: I decided to put the 11 that have popped into #1 pots, 0.38 gal, and I placed the 12th just in case the last one pops.

Iām kinda surprised, I originally traded a pack of polar bear og from karma for those.
Theyāve been from Alaska to Nevada and now up to Washington.
Wouldnāt mind having polar bear og again if anybody has some leads.
Good to see em in good hands!

Re-vegging the mother plant and taking cuttings off of it maybeā¦ I dunno.
All i know is phylos sometimes are backed up and take forever to give you results and i have seen it happening more recently than before since everyone has to test everything now, before it goes out to the public. As a general rule.
Taking clones in the bubbler might seem like the most effective and less ricky way of making sure we have clones for distributing. IMHO.

Does it matter either way?
You still have to flower the plants once before you will be able to choose keeper(s).
Unless im missing something, but even if you know the sexes day 1 that still wont help you determine genetic traits.
