Well, I suppose it is time for me to start a journal for this grow. I have abandoned my first journal, as I think I am going to kill the bagseed plant that I started before I received my Fem. Greenhouse Great White Shark seeds. I think I put the seeds in soil (after a quick paper towel germination) around Nov. 2, so I am at day 13 today. But here are the stats:
Medium: Smith & Hawken Premium Potting Soil with ~25-30% added perlite.
Lights: Air-cooled (cooltube) 400W High-Pressure Sodium lamp vented with 250cfm inline fan. I am running it 24/0 for right now. I will probably knock it down to 18/6 in a week or two for the last half of veg.
Environment: Temperature stays at a fairly constant 78F ambient. Humidity is about 30%.
Nutes: I have not begun to feed them yet, but I will be feeding them Fox Farm Grow Big for veg, and Tiger Bloom and Big Bloom for flower. For the moment, I am only giving them distilled water. I pH the water every time with white vinegar to about 6.2.
They may look a little small for 13 days, but I am fairly certain it is because I planted them too early. I was a bit impatient in getting them in soil after waiting 36 days for seeds (in the mail), so I planted when the taproots were pretty small. They sprouted, and then didn't put out true leaves for a week or more. Oh, and I will be building the screen in about 2 weeks, or as soon as I can find 2" poultry wire. Attached are a couple of pics.
Thank you for stopping by. I hope you enjoy the progression of my grow. I wasn't going to bother starting one until I started to flower, or at least until I built the screen, because I know that most of you cats don't care until there are pretty buds to see. I might need some help on the way though, so I will probably update about once a week during veg, or when something bad happens. Comments welcome and encouraged! I would always like to know how they look to other people.
Thanks,
S-Town
