On 8/20/2013 I began my first attempt at DWC with a Freedom of seeds Pixie Punch. I started with your typical 2 liter bottle cutting the top to create a funnel. I then used black gorilla tape on the outside of the bottle to create the darkness I need to allow the roots to grow. I then purchased everything I needed for the oxygen setup at Wal-Mart for less than $15.00. I used a dual output air pump for an aquarium, tubing and a plastic T to connect both of the outputs to the medium size air stone I purchased at my local hydro store.
Using the funnel part of the 2 liter I mixed 50% perlite and 50% FFOF soil mixture. After moistening the soil good I then planted the seedling about an inch down in the soil. She is currently in temperatures that vary between 70-80 with a humidity of 55%. I am using a light cycle of 24/0 until she shows me a few sets of leaves, I will then change it up to 18/6. Once she begins to flower I will move her light cycle to 12/12. She is resting under a 65 watt 6500K CFL at this time. I had to preform a small surgery on her yesterday after she had sprouted. The seed shell was stuck and I pried the shell off gently with tweezers then had to cut the membrane off of the cotyledons with some small scissors. As of today she seems to be growing quite nicely.
A small twist on this grow my wife will be helping me, She has named her Miss Trixy. She found the name on a website for pixie names, Trixy means she who makes me happy!
