Hey all,
new here and wanted to give an intro. Just planted seeds for the third time. I had been saving seeds and spending money soon long I had a 16 oz red solo 1/2 cup full of seeds and thought it was time to try something new. I started with just germinating and sprouting about 10 seeds at a time to learn what methods worked best. After few dry runs and then my own 24 solo cup "experiment" i picked the 8 healthiest and transplanted them to 1 gallon pails. Grew them (5 females) to completion and got only about 5-6 oz dried. It was ok. i added more lights throughout that grow and then bought more before my second attempt. I made a lot of mistakes and learned lot about lights, water, food, and WHAT NOT TO DO!
The second grow I started only 5 because I knew I had space issues and went to 2 gallon pails. 2 females yielded bout 8oz dried. I learned a lot the first time and second time and my methods are getting better mostly because of my trial and error I mentioned before.
Today I started round 3. 2 feminized autoflower seeds in 5 gallon pails. Organic potting soil(agway).
Now have 15 150watt equivalent CFL's and 4 48" t12 bulbs. 9x2700k. 6x6500k bulbs and the tubes are 2 x 6500 and 2 x "plant" bulbs I found at local big home store. They say 3097 on them. I'm still new don't kill me.
So I guess hello and I welcome any advice on when to start feeding or changing/adding/moving lights or anything you can offer
