Locke00 Bear with me :) 5 days after legalisation I received the seeds from Spain and put the strait into soil. As this is my first grow ever I selected automatics for easy balcony growth. From what I read from now I will not mingle with the plant and just let them grow. As I am planning to smoke it I went for full organic - organic soil and 150+ Gramm organic sheep wool as nutrient and as water reservoir for each 10 Liter pot. Apparently sheep’s wool shall be awesome for growing high demanding plants - let’s see :)

Locke00 Finally all 3 of them germinated nicely. The royal critical (picture) started first and is the tallest with estimated 2.5 cm. Unfortunately I wasn’t able to enter that the lamp (sun) is around 15 billion cm away due 200cm was the max input for the field. I didn’t measure many of the other KPI as I dont want to overengineer my first ever grow :) in a few days I’ll remove the net I and provide a climbing aid as we have some stupid pidgeons sometimes sitting in the plants.

Locke00 This week the 3 plants spent their time mainly inside. We had real shit weather this week. 0° Celsius overnight and some snow and soft hail from time to time. The highest temperature on day have been ±10° Celsius. So they got a spot in the living room. Every now and them I set them back on the balcony when the sun was shining nicely.
I am really looking towards Saturday - from then on 15° Celsius during nighttime and ±23° Celsius on daytime with plenty of sun announced. I hope it stays like this :)
Ill keep you posted!

Locke00 The all growed really nice in the last weeks - I was worried as on one you can see there some marks on the leaves - but I found the reason there are little birds working on the plant today one of them even ripped half of a new leave… tomorrow I’ll add mosquito nets agains this son of a bird!
Now after rooting should have taken place I started weekly organic fertiliser- used a German product called blattwerk - nothing super special but organic.

Locke00 The weather was tremendously inconsistent again. We had everything from 28° and blazing sun to 15° and persistent rain. Today the plants came back into the living room as 3 days of consistent rain are announced. 2 of the 3 are really in good shape (the critical and one berry) the other one is a little behind but we'll see. The 2 being more mature are definitely female I am confident that the other one will follow in latest a week. (Crossing fingers)
Happy growing buddy , happy to see Spanish seeds reaching Germany ! I'm doing a semi organic run myself on my balcony , might want to give it a read I try to make it well documented . As for your little babies , I would pay attention to a good aerated soil add plenty of vermiculite type of stone ,make sure to get the proper amendments and prepare the best teas you can find . The automatic irigation system scares me to be hones , as a seedling to Veg week 1 you need it moist , but after that you should really control the PH and wattering because any overwater will stunt them , root rot in these kind of soils with alot of water is a issue . Happy growing !
