Jack Herer & Panama Red In Doc's Hi Brix

[calicanna143]

This will be my first time using docs kit. I have jack herer and panama red sprouting now. I'm currently using led lights for veg room and 1000 watt hps for flowering.
Its almost time to harvest my current grow of organic soil sequoia strawberry. Here are some pics to start as well as some pics of my current grow. I'm very excited to have found this source of landrace genetics.

Glad to have you along... Let the story begin

Welcome dynamo1, glad your here.. This is going to be a very exciting grow with some nice genetics

I'm still waiting for 1 more to sprout. Its starting to get cold at night and my soil that I cooked is getting a bit cold, I think I will be buying a space heater soon. Hopefully my soil will be OK. Here's a group photo of my line up

Looking good man! If your worried about the seedling pots getting too cold you could get a cheap seedling mat to keep the roots warm. Looking forward to this grow

Thanks!! I have heat mat, its my garbage can full of soil that I'm a bit worried about, its in my grow room and I'm currently using led so it doesn't warm up much being a 10x10 room. My seedlings are in my tent inside my closet of my bedroom which stays warm. I hate adding a heater because my electric bill is already at 700 a month

Oh i see! How cold is it getting in the room with the cooking soil?? Or is it already cooked and its just the extra? I think once its cooked your good to go, its just the one month period he recommends higher temps so the microbs can do there magic faster. Hooefully someone can confirm

 

[calicanna143]

Its already cooked, just waiting for final transplant into 7 gal pots which is a ways away. Its getting down to 56 in the room, thankfully I'm harvesting those plants this weekend, that room is currently setup for summer, once I harvest I'll have a couple months to finish that room and add a temp controller and heater. Once I start running the 1000w hps I shouldn't have need of the heater much

 

[BedroomFarmer]

I think you'll be ok if its already cooked. It just says it will take longer to cook at low temp

 

[calicanna143]

I think your right, as I understand, the microbes will go dormant.

 

[BedroomFarmer]

Id like to know! Because once my soil cooks i was planning on keeping the extra outside. It gets cold at night outside. Lol

 

[TheGreenYeti]

Its ok if its a little cooler after it is already cooked. Is your bin on the floor? If so get some insulation to put under it and that will be a plus. Either way I am along for the ride.

I would try to keep it 65 or so if possible.

Welcome greenyeti, thanks for stopping by! My soil is in a very large commercial garbage can sitting on wheels. I will get a heater to keep up with temps. Buisy weekend with trimming, extractions and upgrading my flower room. Pics coming soon of everything.. Good night yall

Make sure your soil or pots are NOT in contact with a cement slab! Nothing is more important than your growing environment. Cold temps will strangle the microbial action in the soil....and the plants will not grow. Get 'em up off the floor at least a foot.....or use a nice thick piece of styrofoam to insulate them from the floor.

Not doing so is one of the most common mistakes I see. It makes all difference.

Thanks doc, my garbage can is a foot off the ground, but I still need to add a heater. Welcome to my journal and thanks for stopping by!!
