The seeds I had came from a situation where the person did little to no research. He germed 2 seeds got 1, put it into a 15l pot in the hotpress. It went straight under 12/12 light, didn't want to do the whole veg thing, would take too long!! The light (it's the same fluoro light I now have, inherited with the seeds
) was tied about 4ft away from the pot. He got a sprout, then added an infra red heat lamp (???) . After a week he had a very weak, staked stem with cotyledons and decided as it was going 'too slow' he'd increase the light cycle 'to speed things up', from then on they were on 24/0
!! He did get a staked 4ft plant with 5 nodes, no side branches and no hope of ever flowering on 24/0!! He did the same thing the second attempt before finally calling it quits and giving what he had to me
!!
I was quite happy with the stuff I could get from the headshops instead of having to go to a dealer, now I can't get it I had to make the decision, dealer or DIY. I'm a lazy arse but I like my smoke. The thought of handing over €50 for a bag of shite instead of just putting in a little time and effort is what swayed me. And I have to say its been SO well worth it. I've learnt loads and not just about MJ, my garden is flourishing coz I know why and what to do
! It's even been kinda fun especially when I get to play with powertools haha!!! Veg box is coming along nicely, extraction fan and intake have been installed, temps constant at 25C/50%H with the lid closed, trying to up the H a bit, but best of all Celia is thriving! (She better be a damn girl lol maybe I'll get a pink pot for her next transplant, yeah I been
)
Without the research and homework and 'learning from your PLANTS', you
will get plants, you
might get bud BUT you
WILL be disappointed!!
