Update: Day 24 Strawberry Blue: THC Bomb:

Cheers guys, good to hear a bit of positive feedback on fluorescent light. On a side note, a mate of mine just found 2 7' tall plants on his farm :) :) :) so I'm not worried about my yield so much anymore, as long as I have a bit of good stuff. Still, the more the better obviously. I'll update...

Flouros till harvest, that's why I really want to maximize the light they're getting. I know I should be getting a hps or something, but I don't wanna invest too much in my first grow. Plus I have a friend who had a similar setup (flouro tubes) and LST'd with some pretty decent results (5oz off...

Any opinions on this? Anyone?

Hey bro, still not 100% sure, I think they were overheated from being too close to the lights. Whatever it was, it was permanent damage, coz they're still like it. None of the new leaves have had it tho so nothin to worry about

The way I'm set up at the moment, I've got flouro tubes running at a 45 degree angle. I'm thinking that as my plants grow, I'll train them at a 45 degree angle, to run parallel to the lights. Is that a good idea, or should I just let them grow straight up?

Update: day 18 from seed All good, no problems to report. Strawberry Blue: THC Bomb:

I've had the exact same thing happen to the stem of my SB, and it's only 13 days old (ungermmed seed = day 0). Just transplanted, so I'm just burying it and hoping for the best. Hopefully it should pull through like yours, problem free.

New homes :)

Lookin good man, I'm subbed. Will be good to keep an eye on a grow a couple steps ahead of mine so I know what to expect. Keep up the good work bro, power on

They're in seed raising mix at the moment, I've still got a fair bit of it left, so I was thinking I might mix that in with the top half of the potting mix to help ease it in. What do you reckon? Cheers to everyone for the feedback

Nice pics, cheers for that. I've only just started and I already can't wait for harvest!!! Being that I'm in NZ, we only have locally mixed soils (ie not fox farm etc), here's what I've got: http://www.tuigarden.co.nz/tui-all-purpose-potting-mix It says it does contain nutes, but being that they...

Gonna transplant tonight, as the cups are lookin very well rooted. Going into 10L buckets (just shy of 3gal). Once they're settled in (probably give em a couple days), I'll start on nutes. Did a bit of reading on NPK's etc, and decided to go with 3:1:2 for veg and 1:3:2 for flower. Went to the...

Cheers for the reply hyper. Yea, under flouro tubes. Room temp has been really consistent at around 24C (~76F) so I wouldn't think that's it, but I have been keeping them extremely close to the lights (1/2 inch or 1/4 inch), so I wouldn't rule that out. I've moved them back to ~2 inch, so...

I'm thinking either overwatering or too close to lights? Opinions? Any input hugely appreciated. Cheers

Day 12: Both seedlings now have this crinkling of their leaves. Anyone have any idea what might be causing it? Over/under watering, plants too close to lights maybe? Starting to worry a bit.

Day 11: Seedlings continue to grow: I think they are both healthy, the s/b is definitely looking really good, but the bomb has got some crinkling on one side of the leaves (pic below). Anyone got an opinion on this, anything to worry about? Roots are really starting to show on the sides of...

Update: Day 9 (since planting seed) Seedlings seem to be doing pretty well I think. They're just starting to show their second set of leaves, not sure if you can see that in the photo. Also, I've made my carbon scrubber/exhaust, sort of following zen's design. It's powered by 3x stacked 120mm...

Once both seeds sprouted, I found that the bomb sprout had failed to shed the seed casing. I did a bit of reading online, and found that some people who left it had no problem, and the pilot leaves eventually forced the shell off, while other people claimed to have lost plants to this problem...

Seeds broke the surface today, 2 1/2 days after planting ungermed seeds. Stoked that they both germed ok, as I only had the one strawberry blue (Attitude freebie).
