2nd Attempt at this since my first hermied

johnnyfigment · Nov 11, 2009

Well here is my setup now that I have it a little dialed down. I have an old vaniety cabinet turned into a grow box. I'm going to do a 12/12 from seed grow this time. I have 2x 2700k cfl's and 1x 6500k cfl. The actual wattage is 79 w. Will add more when needed. I started germinating yesterday. So it will be a few days until I plant it into the soil.

I have all the nutrients that I need. They are Cutting edge solutions. They sent out some big samples to me.
I'm going to use Miracle grow soil with continuous release nutrients.

Thanks man difference. It's gonna be a 12/12 bagseed grow.

I was thinking of growing some automatic white russian. It says it's easy to grow. Any thoughts on it? I read it grows to only 14" maybe 16" in good conditions.

Don't have any experience w/ auto-flowering strains nor the white russian strain.. All i know is obviously you harvest sooner, but the yield is less with auto-flower strains...

Good luck though, i'll try to help out w/ other questions if i can...

I got some free samples from Bio-Bizz plus some extra goodies. The samples are smaller than the cutting edge solutions samples. They gave me a measuring cup, I heart bio-bizz sticker, a note pad, and some feeding schedules.

Hey man. Ill be watching this one also haha. You should pick up some fem seeds. Nothings worse than waiting and dumping all your time into a male ya know? I got some off nirvana for I think 24 bucks shipped. Just a thought.

Oh and how the hell do you keep getting free shit?!? hahahaha

Dubstepn · Nov 14, 2009

Oh shit I just read that you're using miracle grow soil. I wouldn't recommend dude. I used it and it slaughtered my plants. I switched the soil to some basic garden soil and they just took off. The PH of that miracle grow soil is like 10 and the regular garden soil I got was 7 PH or a little less.

I have thought about getting fem seeds but my money is still low. My dad is gonna throwdown with me on some.
This miracle grow I have isn't bad. My other one didn't have any fans so I put fans in this one. So if it would have been a female it would have gotten bud mold. This time it is gonna be better. I germinated 2 seed. One has already been put into the soil. The other one has yet to crack but tomorrow will be the day I will plant it into the soil.

I have the lights on for 24/0 until the seed sprouts. Then I'm going to switch it to 12/12. I still have no timer for my lights. I don't know what the temp is in my box but I had the lights on for awhile and it wasn't hot at all.

imlovnit24/7 · Nov 19, 2009

Yeah she looks a little sad right now. My 2 plants have yet to crack the surface yet. What could I be doing wrong?

Dubstepn · Nov 23, 2009

Could be duds.

imlovnit24/7 · Nov 23, 2009

i've read different numbers but i'd average out and say if the don't pop within 5 days they probly won't. if they do after 5 they'll likely be weaklings

imlovnit24/7 · Dec 3, 2009

hows the crop, have and sprouts yet?

SimplyBaked · Dec 3, 2009

i also got some bio-bizz nutes after receiving the free samples i went ahead and purchased a few bottles...curious to see how it works out for ya!

Subscribed! Keep us updated as to your progress. Bagseed are a bitch cause you never know what could happen. I started 5 seedlings and not sure what will happen with them.

This is my first attempt so I am still working out the kinks.

johnnyfigment · Feb 8, 2010

Well they didn't work out at all. I went on a little vacation. Well I'm gonna wait until spring hits to plant again. So I'm gonna get read back up and growing,
