I AM FINALLY starting my first little grow project and might need some help from other experienced growers if that's possible, if anyone who is reading my thread has any questions comments and tips they would like to share with me i would be a happy Ladd and I'd truly appreciate the help i get from others.
Thanks all hope you like my pics cheers 420!
Step 1....
I have put up my Grow tent in my basement it is 4 x 4 x 6 in Diameter size.
Step 2...
I have purchased 2 king plus LED Grow lights @ 600w each I have them at the highest level of my tent.
I am also using a shop light that has 3 long fluorescent cool white bulbs each @ 32watts that I have lowest and close to the sprouted seedlings.
Step 3..
Germinated my seeds with the cup of ordinary tap water once seeds split and sunk to bottom of the cup of water I then took them out and used the paper Towel method and a zip log bag waited about 2 days till they sprouted.
Step 4...
Once they sprouted long enough I then planted them all in our famous Dixie Cups we all tend too use I cut holes in the bottom of the cups for draining and then I placed my planted cups into my clone dome for veg cycle to start. PS. I decided to keep my fluorescent light on for 24hours till they have at least sprouted with first nodes.
Step 5..
The seedlings have Sprouted in a day. I gave them about a week to grow bigger than I took off my clone dome so that they can now breath I have turned on my fan for oxygen and to strengthen those stems.
Step 6...
I have now switched from 24h to 18-6 and have all of my lights going and fan blowing. I do not have the LED lights directly on the sprouts they are up really high at the top of my tent. my shop light is in the middle between my leds. I have lowered the shop light with fluorescent bulbs directly over top of the sprouts about roughly 10-12 inches from top. The leds are about 6 feet up at the top of my tent only giving spectrum around there surrounding they are not directly beaming on the sprouts. I am letting my shop light do all that work and that light covers the top of them from the intense leds being on.
This is where I am at right now if there are any comments questions tips about my set up please don't be shy and let me know what you think and what I could do better on.
I am not giving them nutrients yet being to young, I am using Black Gold #4 soil I'm basically just watching the temps and watering when needed. Also Its about week 1 going on too week 2.
Thanks everyone hope you can help me out on my first grow cheers all 420 Growers!
Seasons greetings.
