Summer Bonanza

Kicking off the outdoor grow with a couple different seeds here. The Northern Lights are the seeds I purchased and grew in my first journal; that one is wrapping up this weekend and I'll begin drying those. I'm going to do my best to take the lessons learned there and apply them here, though it'll be a bit different since I'm doing these outdoors with my vegetables. I got these two Trainwreck seeds as a little bonus when I bought the Northern Lights pack, I want to say they are photoperiod but all I can find on the company's website is autoflower, so we'll see how those turn out. Lastly I was given a bunch of seeds from a friend, says they're called Cherry Pie. Figured I'd pop them in and see what happens! I had 100% success with this germination method last time so no reason to change things up. I'll plant them outside this weekend and we'll go from there. 6/2/22 - Planted the seeds directly into their final spots. One Cherry Pie seed was placed in a raised bed, the rest I've kept in fabric pots so I can move them around as needed. Hoping to get some agastache and lavender going to blend in with them. Northern Lights seeds looked the best, both had taproots growing out, one had sunk and the other still floating a bit. One of them is in a 5gal plant, the other in a 3 gal. Trainwreck likewise looked good, taproots growing out and one had sunk as well, just the same situation. Both in 3gal pots. Using Ocean Forest again for both of these strains. The Cherry Pie seeds, one sank and the other two were floating a little, no taproots on either but the seeds were starting to crack it seems. Not too concerned about these ones, I'm mainly just running them for fun to see what happens. They aren't feminized like the other two strains so I'll be keeping them separated as best I can. Using a blend of coco and homemade compost for these. The one in the garden bed is just in the soil there, can't speak to how well it will do but the garlic and strawberries I have growing in that bed are robust and very healthy. 6/4/22 - Removed the humidity domes for the two Trainwreck and Northern Lights seedlings; they've popped out of the soil. No activity with the Cherry Pie seeds but honestly I'm not expecting much, will keep an eye on them regardless.
