Hello
This is my third grow.
I germinated all my seeds by placing them in a wet paper towel inside an open ziploc bag. I germinated 10 white widow seeds from my previous grow and 5 aurora indica seeds w/ 100% germination.
I am growing indoors in soil, under CFLs and fluorescents.
The soil I am using is mostly Miracle Grow Potting Mix (green bag) w/ about 10% perlite or vermiculite for aeration.
I vegged 6 white widows in the growbox using 6 x 27 watt daylight CFLs for about 2 weeks. They were then switched to 12/12 lighting a week ago using 6 x 40 watt CFLs (3000K) and 3 x 27 watt CFLs (2700K). A small fan is hooked up inside to circulate air + strengthen stems. The growbox is lined w/ mylar on the sides and ceiling to increase reflectivity. There is a single 70cfm cpu fan installed on top to ventilate air, and two passive intake holes cut near the bottom of each end of the box. Temps stay in the low 70s while the lights are on.
The rest were vegged under 6 x 4 foot fluorescent lights (dunno what kind). They have been vegging for about 2 weeks and are going to go into 12/12 lighting this weekend. An fan is hooked up on one end to increase airflow + strengthen stems. I'm going to buy 10 x 40 watt CFLs for flowering.
I am watering them all from the tap, but will probably start adjusting my water (to pH around 6.5) because my tap water is a little high (pH ~
All plants were watered a little bit every day for the first week (sprouting). After the first week, the plants are watered 2-3 quarts every 8 or 9 days.
Cheers!
