Hey there.
Well...here's my grow journal . Let's get to it shall we?
The seeds I have are Papaya and Aurora Indica bought from Nirvana. Neither are feminized, so let's hope for the best.
I'll be using a 400w HTGsupply.com light fixture. Vegging will be with a MH conversion bulb and flowering will be with an HPS bulb. I plan to veg until the plants are about 12 inches tall and then going to 12/12. During veg I plan to do 20 hours on - 4 hours off, instead of 18/6.
This is a soil grow and will be done with good ol' Fox Farm Oceans potting mix and assisted with Fox Farm fert's; grow big (have to buy still), big bloom, and tiger bloom. I am starting off with 2 gallon pots and will transplant to something in the 3-4 gallon range a week before going to 12/12.
The grow area is in a recently insulated attic with a space heater to keep heat 70 or above. I'll be installing some mylar eventually, but for now the 400w light should be plenty for veg. Mylar will be more important when they start flowering and the plants are taller.
Germination started at 9pm today and is taking place in moist paper towels inside open sandwich baggies. The bags are near my computer to give some heat. I am germinating 3 seeds from each strain (so, 6 right now), but I plan to germ a total of 4 more seeds (2 from each strain) to have a total of 10 plants. I am using distilled water. I'm still new at this, so I am trying not to waste seeds if I screw something up. Once I get these first 6 going, I will start the other 4. Plus, these aren't feminized seeds...so the more seeds I grow the more chances for more baby girls .
I will be taking some pics of the grow area soon.
