Aight yall, this is gonna be my first REAL grow ANY and ALL advice will be very appriciated.

I had a high budget on this and spent damn near $3000, which I know I over payed for, for tha fact I have no car right now and had to order everything online. Also because I ordered a few things I aint really need so I probably wasted about $300-$500 on stuff I'm not even gonna be using.:wall::dunce:

Im hoping for at least a 1 lb. and want 2 lbs, so if yall see me doin somethin dumb, which no doubt I will, PLEASE tell me.

Hopefully I wont need anything else cuz Im broke as shit now.:wall:

Alright on to tha set-up, this is gonna be a semi-stealth set-up for tha fact that im sharing an apartment with 3 other people who dont smoke and dont intend to. So I gotta keep it kinda secretive by not being too loud and definatley not smelly. One day i was smokin some fire ass dank and I guess it all wasnt goin out tha window cuz I heard one of my roommates sayin "whats that smell, it smells like dead skunk, its awfully dreadful" lol. So I gotta keep that odor under control.

Im gonna be growing in my small 8x10 room that I sleep in, so Im pretty fuckin cramed in here right now. The Tent takes up half tha room and my bed takes up tha other half. Very compact. Heres how its lookin, so you can see how crammed I really am.


The chair on tha left is all tha way against tha wall. So yea, you can see that this grow will be my life for tha next year until my lease is up and I get my own place.

For me to even open up my Tent to have room to move tha plants, I have to lift my bed up and put it against tha door.


Haha,, added security though:-o

And if the new deadbolt wasnt enough I had to get some Masterlocks for tha Tent in case management or somebody somehow got in my room.


I know it wouldnt be that hard to get in, all you have to do is just get some small bolt cutters and cut tha zipper, but this isn't to protect against jackers, its for tha people in the house and management.

So when I open up my tent now, this is what I see (its still a work in progress)


I got tha big 18 gallon rubbermaid set-up now for some bagseed im starting to get tha hang of sprotuing and LSTin so I dont kill my $120 worth of dank ass seeds. I might not flower tha bagseeds, im still not sure yet, cuz I dont wanna waste space on something I have no idea what its genetics are. It might be some long ass flowering Sativa and I dont got tha time or space for somethin like that. So we'll see about them bagseeds.

As for ventilation, I got the 530cfm fan hooked up to 1 of the 600w cooltubes for now. When I get my replacement Bulb that the UPS driver broke, I will connect the cooltubes together and put tha can filter on tha end.



Anywayz, its runnin out tha side of the tent and out tha window like so,


Theres another 6" fan at the end pushing even more air out the window.



I got tha whole 35 watt pump pumpin air into tha rubbermaid right now, but once i get the rest of tha stuff I need to set-up my 5 gallon DWC Buckets, it will be split off all 4 of them.


Haha, oh yea, i got tha pump suspended in tha air to keep heat away from tha plants and in case of a power outage no water will go inside and ruin it


Heres tha future...


My first time orderin from attitude and took 11 dayz to get em, also got a "cool" mug too, lol.







I might have these freebies growin in tha 18 Gal Rubber maid and have tha SLH and LSD in tha 5 Gal buckets.

Here's half of tha Nutes Ill be workin with, still waitin on tha purple maxx, gravity, bushmaster, and gallon jugs of GH Micro and Bloom. Also got tha hydroton soakin in pH'ed water right there too.


Thats about everything for now my brothas and sistas, got tha bagseed germinating in paper towels, should start poppin in a couple dayz.

Feel free to comment about anything yall wanna, this is my first grow and WILL need guidance on somethings, despite many months of reading I know i aint cover every last detail I needed to know.

Deucez

Man, tha seeds I put in the wet paper towels have mold or somethin on em and none of them popped at all.

I've done this before with no problem, but this time it aint workin. I've heard of somethuin like soakin em in a cup of water then puttin em straight into tha rockwool, yall have any success with that??

hey bro...great start so far...and yeah...many other ways to germ seeds..place them in a cup of water and cover it in a warm dark place...the seeds will start to sink when they are ready.they sink when the seed cracks and takes on water.you also can soak your rockwool in ph'd water and place them under a dome and get them to sprout...also can use peat pellets...just makes it a lil more messy when you go to transfer to your dwc
