yeah everything i've read says it takes longer in soil... with my drafty house soil temp might be delaying it at least that's what i'm thinking so i put a couple of hand warmers in my closet today to raise the temp a little... if it doesn't pop by saturday i'm gonna try a Green Poison auto that I have. just convinced a buddy of mine that has a setup in another state about 4 hours from me to get some Lemons. He's got 4-6 plants growing at all times and an awesome setup. his fav's have been chocolope and chemdawg... and I think chemdawg was part of the Lemon's geneaology. regardless i got him some seeds from the tude headed his way... i've done 2 rounds of C99 fem but that is my only experience growing first turned out crappy because i didn't know what i was doing... second round turned out okay but after a lot of research i think i can get a decent yield for just my stash... if these autos don't work i have some more Cinderella 99... some blue widow, and a couple of other freebees that seem like some good strains. Just wish i was in flowering stage with something right now
