So, I've read many a grow journal and decided that I should toss up my own, more or less a great way for me to track my own progress. Of course, getting some expert help along the way never helps.
Last monday, I was out buying equipment for the upcoming legalization in Canada and was offered some free CKS Auto white widow. How could I say no? So I germinated 2 of them. I originally started with 1, but 5 hrs later the wife tossed #2 into the shot glass with the first.
14 hrs later, they were moved to a damp paper towel. Next day, those little guys were over 1/2" long. So i tossed them into some very holey solo cups (put holes in it everywhere, bottom, sides ..etc). I am aware that there are opinions on whether or not to use solo cups. I am not planning on letting the roots wrap in the cup, I'll be splitting the cup in a few days, cutting off the bottom and placing into 3gal pots, leaving the cup to hold water close to the girls. I'll split the cup so that when its time to remove the cup, itll slide right up and over.
Have each cup covered with a ziplock baggie for extra humidity.
Using:
3'x3'×63" mylar tent
174cfm fan with carbon filter
viparspectra reflector 600w
3gal pots (may switch to 5gal)
Nutrients: gh flora nova .. and i have yet to get flowering nutrients (thinking something organic)
Soil: cheap stuff. 50% vigoro potting soil (one without time release nutrients), 20% black earth, 30% perlite.
Water: will go a mix of water (ph 6.4), and distilled water
Have neem oil for gardens to help against fungus ..etc
Going to run things by ear and see how it goes. Named them "thing1" and "thing2". Thing2 is 5 hours older.
Temp: 20c to 26c
Rh: 50% to 60%
On day 2 of sprouting from dirt. 5 days from seed
