30 March Noticed some roots had grown out the bottom of the 6" pot into the water tray. So I re-potted up to an 8" pot fairly smoothly with little mess. I hope it wasn't too much of shock for her? I also picked up a second hand alum conical shade which I think might reflect the light down...

Yeah I've looked at the pics and looks like you are running two warm white tornados around 20 - 23 watts each. I started out with one 23 watt tornado about 2.5 cm or 1" from the top of my seedling and the first set of leaves were burnt and distorted then I changed to a 45 watt daylight cfl under...

:razz: Hey Stoner thanks for that tip :smile: Yesterday I noticed that she was starting to raise her leaves as she grew closer to the light. As I said I'm running a 40 w daylight compact flourescent which isn't hot but does give off a cosey warmth which is needed to take the chill off as we...

Been awhile and thanks for all the good advice. Well the seeds never surfaced so I started over with the 5 seeds left and only one germinated which has also surfaced and seems to be happy:mrgreen: . Times and things... 31st March put seed between damp cotton wool between two saucers on...

Ok it's been awhile since posting here but unfortunately the seeds didn't surface after planting. So I guess I might have been doing something wrong, but I did have better luck with the one other seed out of the 7 I started with that actually germinated and is now throwing out leaves, so to the...

Hey Videoman, yeah it says controlled release plant food plus trace elements. And yes I am very excited about my first grow. I hope I don't make too many mistakes but that's how I learn - always the hard way :roll: so all help is appreciated - thanks.

Thanks, I've already bought some Osmocote Plus for pots and indoors. I don't recall seeing Fox Farm on the shelves but will have another look as I can always use the Osmocote for my other plants.

Hey wow thanks Videoman for copying this here for me. Yeah that's what I read. BTW both seeds germinated. I've finally started a grow journel so will continue this, there... :peace:

Ok I was given some silver pearl seeds. So first I germinated 2 seeds (a brown and a white one) on a wet tissue in in a closed plastic tub. The best place I found was on top of the PC but any where warm and dark probably would have done. Anyways 4 days ago they both started to germinate so I...

Another great thread for this newb as I have been looking for some info on seeding for days... thanks guys and girls:blsmoke:

Thanks Vidman, I've just started my first grow and this method of curing sounds promising - so might try it if my baby's make it to bud.

Thanks for the heads up Videoman. I talked to my friend who gave me the seeds and they might be Silver Pearl - I'll just grow them and see what comes up, but I remember reading that males come from higher temperatures and longer light cycles or something, anyone have any experience of this...

Thanks BluBerry. I inspected the seeds this morning and the dark brown one looks like it's opening.

Hey just a newb so have a newb type question. I was given some seeds and not sure of the strain:roll: Some of the seeds are pure white while the others are dark brown, so I'm trying to germinate one of each as I only have enough room for one plant in my closet. If both germinate then I'll...
