Lemon Skunk- [FIM, LST, SuperCropping]

Ive been looking around on RIU, and ive seen some interesting grows and have learned a lot about growing. So naturally I want to try it for myself and see what I can do haha. This will be my first grow so any advice or ideas are welcome and much appreciated! Just as the title says, I will be growing lemon skunk seeds that a friend gave me, and i will be using the following techniques on 2 plants, and just natural on the other 2.(Total of 4 plants)

Imma add the pictures of the seeds germinating and some of the equipment that I'll be using!

The last picture of the blue bin is to show the drain holes that added to it... Imma go and buy the soil tomorrow but if theres anything Im doing wrong or adive for the near future please comment! haha i truely will aprecciate it!

Those are the exact light bulbs I use. I just picked up those outlet to socket adapters, too.

you're gonna use like pots or cups right? or are you just gonna put all the seeds in that one container?

Imma put them in seperate cups first, then into bigger pots and once I'm able to sex them then I'll take the two best females and put them in the blue bin. I have a divider for it, so each plant will have about 15 gallons a piece. Is that a good idea?

Should I buy more of these lights sense they're cfl? Or will it be okay with just the two in the early stage?

Are they 5500k - 6500k spectrum? if they are then those two should be fine for a week or so.

Yeah they are, today I went to pick up 2 more thoug just to be safe. I'm still waiting for the seeds to germinate. Hopefully by tomorrow they're good to go, by the 3rd day should I just try different seeds?

how long have they been germing? if you soak them in ph'd water first until they sink and then put them in the paper towel they'll germ faster.

They have been germinating since last night at about 10. Would it be to late to do that process now?

No, its not too late, just take the seeds and wrap put them in between wet paper towels... they should crack soon.

I have them wrapped in wet papertowel already haha thanks though, I was thinking of placing them on a heat vent over night to ensure they stay warm.. Is that a good idea or will or will I ruin them.

I would love for you to put them pics up bro! That'd help me out a lot. How big were your plants? And what kind of problem did you come up against that I should prepare for? Sorry I know I ask a lot of questions, but I just like to know everyones opinion and not just mine cause I don't wanna be stubborn and fuck up everything haha thanks a lot bro!

I think that if you put them on a heat vent the water will dry out. As long as its not too cold out they should be ok.

Oh, okay man thanks for that.. If these seeds dont crack, do you have any recommendations for what seed shop to buy from? ( Sativa or Indica )

Are the Lemon Skunk you growing bagseed ? Cause I saw in your first post that you had a ton of seeds there.

On my first grow, I just googled for seeds, and I got a terrible seed bank. Most seeds didnt germ, plants looked nothing like they were supposed to etc... I saw a lot of people here bought from the attitude so i bought my last seeds there and have had no problems. They sell from the different breeders.. green house seeds, big buddha etc and you get freebies when you order.

So I at first I had lost all hope for my first grow because, i thought the seeds were bad... I made the post saying i took them off the heat vent before i did, and left them there over night! Luckily they actually sprouted.[about 9] So i planted them all in the blue tub.[Just in case some didnt actually grow]. But once they are old enough for me to take a clone, i will clone one, and flower them to determine the sex.[Any advice?]

if you plant more, then you should wait until the tap root is about 1/2" and they should sprout the next morning if you plant them 1/4" down in the soil
