I believe the store is now out of stock lol   Monday, April 8 View Page May 1st update. YouTube   Monday, April 8 View Page All seeds started, now we wait for roots to pop. I saw a discussion on how long to soak the seeds for and what products to add to the water. I keep it simple and use warm water 80 ish degrees, with nothing added. I soak for 35 minutes to an hour before placing them in a rung out damp paper towel in a zip lock bag. Temp is maintained at 80 ish degrees till root pops. Typically takes 36-72 hours max.   Wednesday, April 10 View Page Roots popped in 48hrs using paper towel method.

So I took a cutting a few weeks back and have been nursing it along. I finally have a strong enough plant I believe, will be suitable enough to clone a few plants off of to grow the best one for next year. The plant was the 2560 Gienger. With how heavy my fruit was and the great color I'd like to carry those genetics on.   Tuesday, November 12 View Page I have started tge process off getting nodes to send tap roots down in different pots. The plan is to get each put to have a node with a secondary that once the root is sustainable for that leaf junction will allow me to cut free from the mother plant. This will allow me to have several cuttings to grow out and not have huge plant that is likely anemic to try and transfer into the patch in spring.
