After sprouting I intend to plant the seedlings to small pots by sinking the pellet into potting soil. When the seedlings get bigger i then plan to move them to a 7 or 8 gallon fabric grow bag. Can you recommend for me which type of soil I should use in the grow bag? Never found any soil in Thailand that didn't kill the seedlings. I always do a hydroponic grow in coco coir. And use liquid chemical fertiliser once a day. Mix as specified on the packet, adjust PH to 6.8 using citric acid crystals and PH pen, pour around fabic pot (not on plant) until it drips through the bottom. This is the growing medium I use (G4 coco coir mix) https://shopee.co.th/วัสดุปลูกรวมชุด-เพอร์ไลท์-เวอร์มิคูไลท์-พีทมอส-5*-1*-10-ลิตร-(แบ่งบรรจุ)-*สามารถปรับปริมาณ-เพอร์ไลท์-เวอร์มิคูไลท์-i.193303481.4004570476?sp_atk=c7dbd3be-5b45-4293-b9b8-58283ddcefb8&xptdk=c7dbd3be-5b45-4293-b9b8-58283ddcefb8 This for veg. 30-20-10.

Stick it in the top of the humidifier, don't let the 'steam' get hot. Roots in the dark, leaves in the light, had to cover the one I bought in black gaffa tape. I could fit 4 cuttings in the top at a squeeze. Roots will be ready in 3-5 days. Not quite ready ....... Stick it in a pot ........ Plant stem with 2 small leaves + oxygenated water = clone. The Amazon clone tanks use water a water pump, sprays and a fish tank bubbler. But I couldn't stop the nozzles available in Thailand from clogging with algae, so I played the same game in a humidifier.

So I'll do some planting tonight of the seeds from Shopee. I'll let you know how it shakes out. Male/female/both --- tomatoes. ???? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Red Diesel and Lemon Kush were enormous plants, no room in the tent for them. Red Diesel grew under the stairs, Lemon Kush took over the spare bedroom. White Widow.

Spider mites are a big problem in Thailand. You should try to grow some here, before you knock others. I've not seen one thread where you've contributed anything of worth.

Planting in soil is much harder and wastes a lot of seeds. I was at the Buriram cannabis fair on Sunday and was offered 10 seeds (whisper, 10% THC sir) for ฿100.-. If I do decide to plant I certainly won't be doing it this year, fantasy prices and uncertain police reactions prompt me to wait. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BritManToo Posted June 15, 2022 Author Share Posted June 15, 2022 (edited) Planted four seeds over a few days on 10th, 11th and 14th. First seed up this morning, after 5 days, Wiang Ping from the Thai seller on Shoppee. Nothing happening with the others ....... yet. It's been slower this year, I'm thinking it's the lower temps. My last germinating was done when it was 35c every day, this week it's hardly broken 30c. Edited June 16, 2022 by BritManToo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shdmn Posted June 16, 2022 Share Posted June 16, 2022 (edited) The way I used to germinate seeds is to put some toilet paper in a small dish with a bit of water and cover it with saran wrap. After a few days you should see roots. After maybe a couple weeks when the roots are long enough put them in some soil.

Popular Post BritManToo Posted June 16, 2022 Author Popular Post Share Posted June 16, 2022 (edited) Nothing better to do so potted it up ...... 1. Cover the bottom of the pot with stones so the coco doesn't fall through and make a mess. 2. Mix your coco and perlite, break up any larger clumps of coco. 3. Fill up the pot, dig a Jiffy pellet size hole. 4. Fill around the pellet, water around the pellet (never on the plant). 5. Place on a drip plate in the sun (mine is on the windowsill). No plant food needed yet, another day or two before I use fertiliser. Edited June 16, 2022 by BritManToo 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bobsuruncle Posted June 18, 2022 Share Posted June 18, 2022 BritManToo, thanks for an informative article. I have a question about the seed. Back many years ago when experimenting with growing seeds, we never knew whether the seed was going to be a future male plant or a female plant, or hermaphrodite. Is it really possible now days to tell if the seed is actually female? I only ask this because of the lable on one of your seed bags says FEM, which I assume means female? If so, that's impressive that science has come this far that one can determine the sex of a seed. Also, I had been told that the growing conditions during the early stages of the plant could actually alter the sex of the plant. Not sure if that was an old wife tale or not. Have you heard this? Thanks R Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They force female plants (chemically) to reproduce with no male plant involved. Result is all female seeds (feminised). You can also take cuttings from female plants (cloning). All the cuttings are female. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
