1st Grow Attempt - NukeHead Seeds

[425jesse]

I'd stick with 1 strain, 2 plants.

I have a 4x8x8 I built with wood, I have have 4 t5 sunlight for veg and a HPS for flower, but also ordered a led to replace the HPS I never even used

 

[SSHAN0510]

I bought supplies for a second 4x4x8 cabinet which I will start today

 

[SSHAN0510]

425jesse I know your right but It's already soaking and seed sank about to be moved to paper towel

 

[SSHAN0510]

Once I get set up I will get a more organized list and pictures, of all equipment used, nutes, pH, temp, humidity...etc.... thanks!

Go Hydro dude, if you build a recirculating system and stick to one strain at a time it will be very simple to change the water from a main res. And same strain so you can give them all the same stuff.

If you haven't already built your second room, have a look at a grow tent. I don't know where you live, but good ones are cheap in the UK. They have already thought out the whats and wheres of anything you might need. Here they are cheaper than the materials you would buy to DIY a wood one. They are easy to set up and take apart.

I've never done hydro, but you seem to have gone through your learning curve with it and you already have the gear.

What kind of LED light are you looking to get? Lots of people use different lamps at the same time.

That friend of yours needs a good kick in a the pants... thats harsh bro. May your plants r.i.p

haha when you say it, it's sounds so easy and simple, but when I go and try to do it, my newb senses kick it and it just seems more fun to do a GDP Nukehead and 5 white widows. I have not mastered the art of will power.. I know I'll pay for it later! Still crawling over here

 

[187budz]

No no... im growing one seed, thats crawling.. ur growing 6 or 7 thats at least a light jog lol

I'm in LA, was in construction for awhile so Im fortunate to have a lot of supplies left over.

I bought the a CF Grow Cree CXB3590 2 cob 200w 26000lm from Amazon. I have some other COB led lights I have built but it looks like it will explode or turn radioactive any given time so until I'm more confident in growing Im going to put the LED builds on hold. But it's so fun it's hard to!

Pictures to come having trouble uploading, but it is interesting how much more the Nukehead took the punishment.

So I am currently germinating
5fem white widow from 420
1fem Gold Leaf from 420
1fem GDP from Nukehead
1fem Nukehead also from Nukehead

Total of 8 seeds in water

Like a dumbass I used my only Green Crack, GSG, Grape Ape, Chem Dawg before I got married, R.I.P....

Now I was told by a little birdie that if the dam seeds from Nukeheads did not show up they will send another batch right away. Well I didn't get them so I'll be waiting.
Also I want a answer to why my Nukehead didn't survive my 2 weeks of torture training..... I mean... I didn't get them, true story, I would never lie to you....

So I decided to move on and not redo the exact grow I started out with. I underestimated my newbieness, so I decided 4 different strains will easier then 14 different strains. More is not better for some dam reason here. Picks to come after 420mag pays me for my time and efforts for my last failure.

Nukeheads states they specifically do not reship due to scammers... maybe it's different now but that's what I read on the site. .

 

[SSHAN0510]

Haha didn't expect them to, just being silly and rambling

 

[WoundedKnee]

Greetings from the Land Down Under dude ! Mind if I tag along ?

 

[LedGuy74]

Never know though may be worth emailing them and telling them your misfortunes... some companies may help depending on the situation and may reship for shipping fees or give you extra freebies with your next purchase... Nukeheads isn't some large company like the vault or seedsman ect so idk if they'd help or not.

 

[Planter420]

Can't hurt to try. I found that you really do need to scuff the seeds well, at least the NH ones, or they just won't get enough moisture inside them to evenly germinate and you wind up with taps and nothing more. Don't go too crazy just scuff the seam all the way around.

Howdy SSHAN9510, top of the morning to ya! How big did you say your grow space foot print was?

 

[SSHAN0510]

Absofuckinlotely WoundedKnee welcome sorry but not much weed porn yet but it's on its way! So I'd love to have ya along for the ride! AU has been on top of my list of places I need to visit!

Good morning Jesse, I have one fully enclosed Grow closet I guess or grow box. It's 4ft x 8ft and 8ft tall. With another identical box that I'm working on right now same dimensions.
