Grower notes
2/15/26-2/22/26 Only took about a week for my seed to get here which was super fast. Then I wanted to get some ice cream cake going and it took only 2 days for these little girls to pop using the paper towl method. They're going in a dwc hydroponic setup and can't wait. Will do more journals and strains.
