Any how I've gone for soil germination with success

hi and welcome to 420 mag
No one will judge you for your set up if it is made with no or little money, So don't worry
Set up looks fine at the moment and babies too.

Here we HELP each other
I am a total newbie too and my set up must have been the " cheapest" so far lol
Everyone here have helped me A LOT and they still do. You did great to come here.

You might want to tell the moderators to move your journal to the correct place. ( journals in progress)

Haha thanks for the reply I'm pretty sure that's where I posted my thread don't know how it ended up in here, I think in total it's cost me 27 pound up to now everything was pretty much lying around my house

Also figured out its candy kush auto to my misfortune which messed my plans a little cos I wanted to dig into cloning and play with monster cropping a little but next seeds I will be sourcing myself so non autos are on my list preferably sativa dominent ones with a little indica in there

you can clone an auto. The differences is that auto clone continues the age of its mother when cut ..so it will flower earlier.

Yeah I read that but not what I really want got a shop nearby the sells seeds so can pick them up easy once I got this one harvested, just going to try some lst on this one get some experience in with it for my next grow and hopefully some upgraded lights .

looking good mikey. if i may ask what is that tube going into the dirt? just wondering. I did an experiment once with air tubing around the roots. There was no control for the experiment so i cant say if it benefited growth or not but its always fun to try new things. Keep up the good work.

Looking good, my set up is even more basic, a pot, a greenhouse and the sun, wish I had a grow tent and some nice lights. Keep us posted.

Thanks it's maybe a bit to late for me to do an outdoor grow here in the UK plus the weather has been so weird this year would probably have been a loss so making do with what I had to hand, just made a diy carbon filter today also from an old xbox 360 fan a sweet tub and some carbon from pet store hopefully will do the job when the smells come along will put some pics on when I get he chance
