Hello! This is my second grow journal (also, my second-ever cannabis grow).
The essentials:
Two Plants (started from seed)
Genetics: Bomb Seeds "Auto Bomb" feminized seeds, purchased via Attitude
Method: Hydroponics - Deep Water Culture
Container: DIY - 3 gallon pail
Medium: Rockwool/Hydroton
Nutrients: TechnaFlora BC Grow/Bloom (And the rest of Recipe For Success)
Supplements: Hygrozyme, Superthrive, Liquid Karma, Silica Blast
Lighting: Kessil H350 LED grow light, Magenta.
So, when I first decided to take a shot at growing my own meds I ordered some seeds from Attitude. I ordered some autoflowering seeds since they seem pretty straightforward for a new grower, and they finish fast. At that time I didn't realize that there are issues with yield and potency with most autoflowering strains when compared to strains that flower based on photoperiod. But I got excited and ordered my seeds before I had done enough research on autoflowering.
Anyway, since I paid all that money (and waited weeks for them to arrive!) I figured I may as well grow them, and maybe this is a good opportunity to test out this Kessil H350 LED light that I bought but haven't yet grown anything under. I have the Magenta colored one which is supposedly good for full-cycle growing but leans a little into red to help a bit more in the flowering phase.
I set up two seeds to germinate, hoping to end up with one female. I will grow one of these females in a GrowLab GL40 tent, which is pretty small! 16" x 16" x ~48". I originally bought this tent to hold a single bonsai mother (obviously for a non-autoflowering strain), but I will put off my mother project for a little while so I can do this LED/Autoflower grow in this small tent.
I started these seeds four days ago, so we'll start there:
A four-day old Auto Bomb seedling and her slower sister
One seedling is up and about, ready to shed its seed husk and open the cotyledons. The other seedling is still working its way up and out of the rockwool cube.
These seeds were prepped and germinated using the same method as in my JillyBean hydro grow journal.
Here's a gratuitous shot of the Kessil LED I'll be using for this grow. This is an older photo and shows the light in a larger 2x4x4 foot tent. This grow will actually be taking place in a tent that's about half the size of this one- But it's the same light!
