My First Grow--- White Widow and BC Mango with pics

[Vancouver420]

Okay well this is my first grow, I've been waiting for these seeds which seems like forever because my first batch that i bought from the vancouver seed bank didn't germinate so i went with seeds that cost less than half as much and received over double the number of seeds, So i must say **BCSEEDKING** is what i recommend too you, but back to my grow, the first pics below are of where i first started my seeds and today i'll be moving them to the attic under my 400W MH light for the veg period . i'm thinking of about 10 plants and just take the best ones though. i just finished hooking up my watering system which works quite well and all under $30. look at the pics and tell me what you think.
thanks

Good start, i use jiffys too.. but i'll be switching to rockwool now jiffys seem to take to long to root. GO 604!

Yah, my roots look good in them, it took them 4 days and theres roots coming out of them already thats why i'm transplanting today.

So far so good - I'll be watching!

 

[Vancouver420]

Here is what it looks like after transplanting, now i can finally leave it for a while because after tomorrow i can only check it like once or twice a week

Okay quick question, I currenly have the water pump go ON 7 times/day . my question is that too much? It only goes on for a minute each time and only during the lights are on. each plant only gets about 25ML of water/watering?

anybody??????????????

 

[cbraaszsy]

i usually give my plants (the ones in 4 inch pots) about 150 - 200 ml every other day...
so approx 75 ml- 100 ml per day so if you are giving 25 ml 7 times.. i would guess that IS to much i'd set the dripper up to just give like 150-200 ml every other day if you can do that.. i'm def not an expert on the subject though. checkout my grow

Yeah thanks for the information, ill go down to about 5 times day.

im kinda nervous seeing i haven't checked up on the plants in about 3-4 days. ill update with pics next time i check up

 

[Vancouver420]

Hey guys,
i checked up on them today and they looked pretty good but i forgot the camera i took off 2 waterings so now its down to 5per day and i lowered the lights.
the plants only have about 4 leaves each and its been about 9 days since they first sprouted. there about 3inches tall

Awesome journal, I also got my seeds from Bcseedking, and I got Bcmango and white widow. But I got the Indoor/outdoor mix, so mine came with bcmango, white widow, juicy fruit, haze, and ak-47. They werent labeled though, so not sure which 2 strains I planted. Hopefully I can compare you urs to help identify which 2 strains they are.


Yeah Bcseedking is an awesome seedbank, they also gave me extra free seeds on top of the free seeds they already gave me. and so far 4/4 for germination = )

 

[cbraaszsy]

can you buy the seeds locally from bcseedking or is it only online?

Hes located on Vancouver Island but you have to either pay through cash in the mail or CC online, i dont think its a store, i google maped it once and it kinda looks like a apartment type place.

UPDATE:
OKay well i just checked up on them and there doing pretty good exept when i got up there i noticed that it was about 33C degress in there and this is during the dark periods!! some of them are alot bigger than others, i think its because of the water, i think it drips at different rate at different areas. the plants on the out side of the light were leaning toward the light so i put some sticks holding them upright. i think i hit a good amount of water for most plants seeing the was no more over flowing .

and about the pics yah i no there not that good i just realized that every time i turn on my camera and take a photo it freezes and turns off so all i have for now is my camera phone and this was during the dark period with a flask light .

 

[Vancouver420]

UPDATE:
Well today is day number 16 (from sprout) and there doing alright some of them are alot bigger than others(see pics). the first thing i check was the water and its had a surface mold on it which i took off with a strainer, but i'm guessing i'll have to clean out the water and start from scratch. the ones i took pics of were the BC mango plants and the size does differ, its strange but i think some plants get more water than others and more light than others. tell me what you guys think any input would be much appreciated.
thank you

 

[Vancouver420]

Anybody????

 

[Vancouver420]

UPDATE:
today i checked out the plants and im planning on changing the water tomorrow. as you can see from the pics there looking pretty good but id like to know if its average for the plant to be this size on day 19.The root mass is massive there already coming out of the bottom and as soon as i saw that i was think that was pretty soon but then i thought about the Voodoo juice that i was using in the water and it made more sense. the pics are of the BC mango and the White widow, Can you tell which one is which.
i recenly put a little computer fan on them which seems to be helping, im wondering when will it be time to top the plants.
thanks

howd you make that drip system?

 

[Vancouver420]

The drip system was bought off of ebay for about $15 (75ft tube) then i bought a pump for about the same so all together it only cost me about $30 and it works pretty good,
