Novice Grow Journal

[Kain]

So for my first plant I found seeds in my store bought bud(almost impossible to get seeds, and I'm scared to have them mailed due to location, i started smoking last year so this journal should detail a walk thru from the. Beginning of my experiance. My goal is to eventually setup a green house, and help veterans find medicinal strains, instead of the pills.

I'm working towards a sleep strain, and a deal with people strain.

My med issues are insomnia nightmares ptsd ect.

It might just be the photo, but what medium are you growing in, Kain?

Meet big bertha

 

[Mark Gordan Smith]

I was quite amazed as a young lad the first time I saw a Dalek.
As an old man I feel the same way about Big Bertha, I don't wanna meet her/that/it on a dark sidewalk.
!

 

[Kain]

Lol the idea is she holds 41 peat cups, and water constantly trickles thru, I'm testing it wit tomatos this year.

 

[Kain]

Here is the end of week 1.
Goat poo tea
peatmoss cups

And basic potting soil.
And a chicken brooding light

More light needed to reduce the stretch
Happy growing

I'll follow along. Agreed on more light or lowering what you have. When you transplant just bury them a bit deeper

 

[Kain]

Thanks to all I lowered the light till it felt warm on my skin, and they all perked up.
Will try for new photo once a week.

Big Bertha is for strawberry and tomatos until further in the future.

Lights fixed, now I have a old shower they will be growing in, would it be better to do 2 plants with a shelf or try to fill the whole 4x4x8 area? And what trimming method would work for that size?

 

[Kain]

Removed growing lamp to a 20w led,
Repotted in alpaca/goat poop
Doing 18/6 light
I have wedding cake, gamechanger, and another type growing.
