Hi all! I post regularly on another forum under a different handle, but now that I'm going to be growing some gear from Sannie's Shop (and testing some Blueberry!), I wanted to make my way over here as well. These are my first Canna plants from seed. I've started 5 Jackberry x KO Kush and 1 Chocolope. The Chocolope was the lone seed that turned up while trimming a friend's plant, so it's kind of just a bonus I thought I'd include. I grow organically in soil. The seedlings are currently in 4" (I believe) pots. When they move up in size (I haven't decided yet what size, but I'm thinking of flowering them in 3 gallon smart pots) I am planning to put them into the following soil mix: Base 50% Sphagnum Peat 25% High quality EWC 25% Airation (Perlite, Pumice and/or Lava Rock) Ammendments (1/2 cup ea. per cubic foot of base soil) Crab Meal Kelp Meal Neem and Karanja Meal (50/50 mix) Glacial Rock Dust (this one will be 3 or 4 cups per cubic foot of base) Unless it seems like I need to do something different, I will probably just feed them with teas made from Kelp and Alfalfa, plus a little Pro-Tekt. Since they need to be sexed I'm leaning towards cloning them early and putting them into flower small, and then using the second round to better glimpse their potential. Here's some pictures! I had 100% germination within 3-4 days. Most of them came up within 2 days. Here they are on day 15... #1-3 in the top row, #4,5, and Chocolope on bottom row. So far so good. Thanks to Sannie and the other great breeders here for making these genetics available!
