I'm working on my first grow. I'm groing in hempy buckets and my girls are 16 days from seed. I found this thread last night and after reading I decided to just flip now. I know its not from seed but I didn't know you could do this. Thanks everyone for all your info. I got 2 blue dream, 1 crit kush, 1 vintage 2006 and 1 jack freebies and a g13 haze that's a runt. Can't wait to see what happens! Thanks again.
Edit
I'm using a coco/perl mix (about 80/20) 600w mh (when should I switch to hps?) And my tent is 4'x4'x6.5'. I'm using heavy 16 nutes.

Hello mate just did a blue dream and got another in now, they seem to like 12-12 from seed. I would go for switching after a few weeks flower, blue to help stop stretch......dual hps bulbs are good to use from start to finish....

Yeah the Lemon Kush is doing good, C99 had some problems and I topped it as an experiment. Blueberry is bag seed but it's apparently blueberry so we'll keep that name until otherwise
lol.

Del, You've inspired me with all of the knowledge, thank you. I'm one of the paranoids, so it'll take me a while to post pics, but here's a description of my 12/12 from seed perpetual:
Grow room:
1 Meter deep x .8 M wide x 1.5 M tall (it's easier to measure metric.)
Planters:
2 x 45 gallon tubs, each having 8 plants, 4 flowering 4 maturing
8 seedling/sprouting cups in a humidity dome
Soil:
Home made, 4 parts enriched desert soil, 1 part sand, 1 part perlite, 1 part moss. The mix drains nicely, flushes quickly, yet maintains enough moisture. The soil is as close to the rich mountain soil I used to grow in, outside of Espanola.
Seeds: Afghan Indica (Landrace) - I'm just setting up, in the future I'll be adding more variety, and switching to feminized seed (I'm losing 1/3 - 1/2 of my seedlings to the Y chromosome, that sucks)
Lots of CFL lighting:
Overhead: 4x65W 65K, 4x23W 65K, 4x23 27K - I'll be adding 2 UVB (10K) bulbs, and 2 65W 27K bulbs when I can afford it. Current wattage: 444
Soil Level: (each bin) 1 23W 65K, 1 23w 27K, 1x13 65K (mini tube, trouble-light style CFL) Current wattage: 59 per bin
My current total wattage is 562, electrical cost is 22 monthly increase
I'm using some general purpose nutes ( 2-2-3 ratio, I don't remember the brand, my mother bought it for me.) Water is filtered, 1 Tbsp per gallon unsulfered molasses, 1 Tsp magnesium sulphate. I water twice weekly, once with just water, once with nutes+
Air circulation is courtesy of a dual circulation fan (2 30CM fans in a single housing)
Temp stays around 82-88 during the day (lights on) and drops to 70 at night. Humidity in the "room" is 30-45% depending on length of time since last watering.
I'm 2 weeks in, I started out 18/6 to 12/12, but, the lighting was an issue. The landrace is vegging nicely under 12/12, the random sativa bag-seed that I threw in for shits and giggles is also blooming quite nicely.
I'm pretty sure the bins will only hold up for 3 or 4 cycles, by then I'll be more set to build my grow better. Better lights, ventilation, 4 times the area, 1 gallon pots in bins vs. a "garden grow"
