aaaaaaaaaaaayo

whats good yall?

first time grower.. thought i'd share my experiences, and maybe learn a lot in the process..

where do i start?

ummm.. fuck it.. i placed seven seeds in a mix of distilled water and the diluted ass hydrgen peroxide u buy at the store.. covered in saran wrap, set on a mini heating mat and placed under a single CFL.. this was on February 18th..

12 hours later, I placed each of the seeds into six Rockwool cubes.. I forgot about one of the seeds..

i made a thin layer of perlite on the bottom a clear tupperware thingy, which i placed on the same heating mat from earlier.. put the cubes on it, covered the tray in saran wrap and placed it under a single CFL..
 
pics from March 2nd, today..

of the six planted and cracked, one decided to play ostrich and grow into the rockwool.. so i got five now.. moved them into individual planters and they're chillen with a pair of CFLs and a section 8 ass CO2 thing made with a water bottle, sugar and champagne yeast..

i'm feeding them manually with General Hydroponics FloraMicro & FloraGro til they grow a few more inches.. then I'll move them into the ebb & flow system I bought all the parts for, but have yet to build as I have no drill..

they seem to be growin pretty slowly.. lil concerned about that.. not in a big rush, tho , as i'm not a big smoker.. or even a medium smoker..
 
DAMMIT!!

i fucked up.. one of my CFLs tilted and made contact with my stretchy plant for about 20 min.. burnt a damn leaf.. should i crop that leaf or just let it grow as-is?

...


the rest of the plants seem to be doing okay.. of the other four, two have leaves that are somewhat curling under the plants.. i did a lil search on the forums, and what i found on leaf curl dealt mainly with leaves curling upwards - if i read them right.. any thoughts on what could be causing this? here are the pics from the other four:

Nope. If your leaf is 50% burnt just go ahead and lop that sumbitch off as close to the stem as possible you've got enough leaves that removing that one will probably only help divert energy and nutrients to new growth.
