Hey RIU. I was in a toss up between the Kosher Kush & the Purple OG. Decided to go with the Purple cause it landed on tails lol. Just speculations & I personally hate when people just spread info without actually having first hand experience. I don't believe in that. Over the next couple months I will provide a detailed account of my grow & won't fall off like most of the grows I see online.

Plans:
(6) Reserva Privada Purple OG #18
(2) 600w Scrog w/ FFOF Soil
5x5 Tent
Time Crunch - 6 Week 24hr Veg
3 Part AN Jungle Juice w/ a couple supplements

This is my first time doing soil & I want to compare it to my normal hydro runs. I know its kinda backwards but I'll probably need some info on the way. Feel free to ask any questions. I will update the journal a couple times a week & posts pics weekly for those who like detail & want to learn

Today I got the seeds in the mail from Attitude. My method is to soak until they sink & put them straight into the Rapid Rooters. We've all seen pics of seeds so I'll skip this step but here's what the package looks like. Should of took it before I opened it up. I'll add pics of my setup once they sprout in the RR

Soaked them overnight & put them in the RR, covered in plastic, & under my T5 stand. I've always had a 100% pop rate within about 24hrs this way & hopefully this one is no different.

In soil, when do I put them in the FFOF pots? I'm guessing when the shoot thru the bottom. I let em get several inches when I do hydro

Great start Cap! I usually put sprouts into soil once the taproot shows thru my rapid Rooters. ATB!

Nice, I'm actually growing both Kosher Kush and the Purple og#18 right now. So it'll be nice to compare mine with yours. Mine are about 18 days from seed.

Ok here's a couple pics of my two Purple OG #18's. They are pretty much identical, even though I heard there was a fair bit of variation in phenos in this cross.

Since this is an experimental grow I wanted to try some new stuff out. I put the seedlings in a 3" peat pot. I put the RR in a mixture of 2 parts FFOF & 1 part Perlite. Hopefully the Perlite will help em from not burning. I have to order some big pots since no stores have the cheap ones around me. 4/6 of my seedlings are fine. One I pulled out of the RR by accident but stuck it back in & its fine & another was stuck with the seed shell over the RR hole so wasn't growing for a day or so. Both are fine but want to give them a few more days before I put em under the MH. I'll probably put them under only 1 600w on Monday & start counting veg days then. How much do I water them now? & any other advice?

Well I've had a few hiccups. One got pulled out by a nosey little kid -_- & they are all stretching like a bitch. Two are stretching so much they are falling straight over. I figured they weren't getting enough light so I put em under a 600w for a day but no help. I'm guessing the plastic cup is stopping light now. Its 2:30am & taking off the cup until morning to see how they do. They were still stretching under the 600w & the leaves weren't getting bigger.

Glad this is just a small experimental grow & the first time I'm having problems but oh well

Cut the bottom out of the cups, and use them as support. I have that issue sometimes, no biggie. It just means you need to re-pot them into bigger pots now, but the bottomless cup will help. ATB!
