I transplanted the seedlings into 1 gallon nursery pots. I noticed after being past the point of no return on the first plant that I had left my bag of organic soil open and my cat(s) peed in it. So I decided to use the soil on all 3 since it already had been on one. No biggie.
This is #1, has good size and structure it looks like, and not too bothered by the increased nitrogen and possibly a slightly low ph.
#2 is taller than the other 2, but I like the structure from #1 better. This one seemed to do fine with the piss, but not as good as #1.
This is #3, it has nice structure but is much smaller than the other 2. Also this one was affected the most by the cat pee.

Alright, so decided to go back to the original plan of flowering these out in coco, and I will take clones before I flip of each. In order to transplant the plants out of their 1 gal soil containers into 3 gallon pots of coco, I let them dry out as much as I dare, and then when I took them out of the containers, I gently agitated as much dirt as I could without root damage. I then transplanted the loose root ball into the coco, and used copious amounts of mychorizae on the exposed roots. Not ideal, but I think I did as well as could be expected.
The 78’s are the back three on the right, in the green pots.

The two on the right hand side and the back left corner are the 78 seedlings, 2 distinct phenos for growth and structure. One short with tight mode spacing, the others stretchier and taller between nodes.
The middle plant is Deathstar and the front right is a GushMints S1.
probably going to flip to flower later this week, possibly Friday because topped earlier this week and I want to give those nodes time to develop.

Today was the first day of flower, got 3 78’s (front left and right, and back right), a GushMints S1 off of my own clone. And a deathstar right in the middle.

Well, week 1 in the books and everyone is feeling the phosphorus boost!
This one center screen in the back is 78 #1, tall pheno, citrus on the stem rub.
This one is 78 #2 she is also tall, and citrus on the rub.
This is 78 #3 she is different. She is more squat, very symmetrical, and gassy stank on the rub.
This one is the Deathstar, I get a piney citrus on the rub here, and she is a bushmaster.

Forgot to post the week 2 pics, but here they are after defoliation and lollipopping, im definitely going to do 9 plants with 1-2 weeks less veg next time I don’t use a SCROG. 
this one is the Deathstar clone.

I forgot to mention last time that I found 2 leaves on one of the 78’s last week that had a powdery mildew spot. I defoliated and sprayed with hypochlorous acid, then 5 days later I hit them with Regalia. Hopefully I won’t need to spray them again, but I’m sure i will, been fighting this all fall into spring now. Here they are though at day 22.

78 #2 looks pretty rad. Any terps yet??

2 and 3 are very close, if you lost one and found the other, it would be close to an equal trade all the way up so far. Terps, 2 and 3 are fruity or sweet gas and 3 is skunky gas, but they are definitely still developing, can’t wait, I haven’t been this excited in early flower in a year

It’s gelato 33 x gelato 45 I thinkI like it. What's a 78? Opposite of a 33 and 1/3, or LP vs 78RPM?
It’s two gelato pheno’s that the seed # added up to 78 when TCC crossed em

this week a distinct cat piss terp developed! It’s definitely the #1 pheno in the back right corner that is the culprit.

Day 36, more or less the halfway mark. I noticed a few more little spots of PM popping up, not bad at all, im going to hit them with some green cleaner right before lights off today.
Here is 78 #3:
78#2
78#1 (started burning on tips of upper fans, and browning hairs, seems to be ripening a little earlier than it’s sisters)

Day 44 and things are looking good! Started the finishing nutrient blend today, and am excited to see how they wrap up. These are the 78’s, I will make a separate post for the Deathstar, and head over to the purple city genetics gush mints grow journal to see the last plant in the tent, a gush mints bag seed from my first indoor batch last year.
here is 781:

Day 44 of Deathstar…she is a heavy girl and she’s not all that strong for the weight. But she’s managing and I’m starting to get notes of sour, just starting to get decent trichome development. I have a feeling this one is gonna go all of 3 months in flower, but good things come to those who wait. I think the estimated time on this clone (if it’s real), is 84-90 days.

going into week two of ripening, going to shoot for a day 63-65 harvest, on these. 781 is maturing, it’s not just pissy anymore, there undertones of fuel that make it closer to diesel. 782 is definitely fruit forward, I smell blueberry, on the same structural base as 781. These two pheno’s are suitable for production from a visual and live scent profile perspective, very excited to see if the taste translates!
Deathstar Day 51
Definitely smell some sour notes, still got a ways to go, gonna shoot for 84 days on her. (Yep there’s a hair or two, fighting sky high temps with any kind of decent humidifier and the lights on, trying not to run ac at all if I can help it this run. So I cracked the top of the door on the tent a time or two…ew right. Lol)
