that's probably why i had such a better grow my first round with the sour kush, but i'm just trying to run a bunch of smaller ones to figure out what i want to grow. i'm not sure what to do. hopefully it won't ruin it so much so that i can't tell if i like it. thanks, probably should rethink my plans...
I think you'll be fine, for testing to see if the strains are "keepers" or not, I've found that soil/container size isn't crucial, if the genes are there, you'll see it, but yields suffer badly, and you need to be careful with feeding, because of the container's size it's easier to have issues. That being said, i'm flowering 8 different varieties, in less than optimal containers, but as long as they are somewhat freshly transplanted (not rootbound prior to switching 12/12) then you'll be able to tell what the special strains are.
Oh, and to update, in case anyone wonders, out of my five small, somewhat greenish SP seeds, four germinated, three within 36 hrs, and the last one took three days. Both mad scientistXJackberry seeds germed in 30hrs.
I'll be doing an abbreviated version of a grow journal, very abbreviated. Also of the strawberry blue, fruity chronic juice, kali (cbd), shark(cbd), agent orange, cheesequake, and grand AK.
I say abbreviated meaning probably 5-6 pics a strain, and a somewhat short description of it's growing tendencies.
