This is my first grow ever and I started with some bag seed. I do have northern lights on the way but this was my tests. My soil composition is 50% peat moss, 30% mushroom compost and 15% perlite. I know that not 100% but the recipe called for vermiculite at 10 % and I didn't have any. So i just added alittle bit more perlite. On top of that i added about a 1/4 cup of blood meal.
My lighting system is 6-23 watt (100 watt equivalent) cfl's. Planning on adding more cfl's and a hps. And continuing this through flowering. Right now I have a 16-8 schedule until I get to flowering.
I germinated the seed in a modified paper towel system and placed it in a bio-degradable seed pot. Right a week after it broke ground I placed the small pot in a 5 gallon bucket. I know most don't do this but I figured I would try it.
I came up with a diy drip irrigation with 3-1 gph nozzles and formed the hose into a ring that mounts on a 5 gallon bucket. I haven't put it in action yet though.
I haven't done any nutes yet but I do have fox farms big grow ordered and plan to buy big bloom and tiger bloom. I will follow the schedule off fox farms for the first grow.
What do you guys think?
