Kush Skunk - 7/10*
Northern Skunk - 9/10
My normal germination rate, when working with "healthy" seed in good conditions, is about 80 - 85%. I had been smoking Sannie's Sugar Punch the afternoon I was transplanting the seedlings from a shot glass to soil. I finished the Northern Skunk and got most of the way through the Kush Skunk when I ran out of something and had to leave the nursery to go get more... Well, when I smoke Sugar Punch I am very easily distracted, loose track of time and forget what I am doing... So needless to say, I got distracted with something else, lost track of time and forgot that I was in the middle of transplanting seeds... I have no idea how much time had passed, but I left 3 or 4 seeds out, with their tap roots exposed to very bright light. When I realized what had happened, I went into "stoner panic mode" and quickly finished my transplanting. I may very well have injured some of the tap roots in my haste to get them in soil.
Lessons Learned
1 - No more shotglasses for germinating seeds. I have learned all I need to know from the process. Too much risk involved. Everything straight to soil from now on. Just dropped
Kingdom Organic Seeds, Chunky Cherry Malawi and
Jordan of the Islands, God Bud, in soil the other day. I will let you know how those go.
2 - No more Sugar Punch during work hours
