Hola Amigos!
I started another thread about my growing attempt but I thought retitling and starting over with a more accurate(and properly spelled) title was probably a good idea so here I am
I started from seed right into soil on April 9th, I didn't want to do the paper towel technique since I read somewhere that the sprouts produce micro-roots that embed the paper towel and are torn out when moving so I figured I would try doing it the way nature does.
So far things have worked out for me it's looking like. The plants seem to be taking off and doing just fine on the veg growth phase, now I just need to wait until time to switch the bulbs and timer to the flowering stage to see how it does.
I am doing a soil grow using Roots Organics soil and Fox Farms Neuts along with some Cal-mag and Earth Juice micro-nutrient solution and R/O water cleaned down to 3 PPM for a base.
I have never grown before, so this is a double experiment. Do I have anything close to a green thumb and can I get enough floral growth to sustain an average medical marijuana patient.
The seeds went into the dirt on April 9th in the early evening.
How long do you guys think I should leave them in Veg before switching?
I gave them their first application of Neuts at 1/2 strength yesterday ( 5/3 ) and checked them this afternoon and they seem to be doing ok. No obvious signs of leaf tip burn as of yet.
Here are what they look like at almost 1 month old. and a few shots of my grow area. I will continue to give updates on my status and reports on how well the T-5 system functions both in Veg and flower.
I sure could use any advice or suggestions you would care to make and hope that this will work as a guide (if I succeed) to those who can't use HID lighting for whatever reason.
Anyway, I am outa here to go ogle my plants again.
Wish me luck!
