Ok so I have been very interested in growing my own supply, and have finally stopped waiting and went ahead and germed about 10 seeds I've been collecting. 9/10 have actually sprouted in 2 days so here we go... Help thru this journey will be greatly appreciated!

what is your setup size. how many watts cfl....how tall is your box?? if its a mini fridge i would put the seedlings into solo cups and grow them without any veg just start them at 12/12 being seedlings bag seeds.. you can pull any sick or male plants out leaveing you with strong plants..i have grown with cfls 12/12 from seed and ended up with plants that where 20-30 inches tall depending on strain..so keep that in minf if space is a factor!! good luck:weed:

Ok we'll it's about a 2.5 ft fridge. Inside are 4 thru the soil seedlings all planted in small 1qt pots. I used an OTC soil mix from lowes that has TR ferts, added some rocks for drainage and a bit of perlite as well. I'm now VERY temporarily working 2-14w CFL's and plan to go get more on my payday. I also lined the top of the fridge with not foil but a windshield reflector and left the bottom half white (for my own experimental reasons). The temp is a steady 83 degrees and there is a pan of water nearby lights for humidity.

Well mine are not feminized or anything so I feel like just based off success rates I need to Do rounds of atleast 5-6. I can add an additional fridge for flowering and start a SOG. My ultimate goal.
