Newbud thats heaps of light for those little seedlings. It was mentioned a few post back but you really should try putting those bulbs horizontal. Not a huge amount of light comes out the end of the bulb.

All sound's good the only one thing that i would change about the grow is i would go for a differant feed.You are not useing the best light's for growing all though the set up sound ok for the first go.I would go for advanced nutrients or canna veg veg and bloom.The soil useing in my opinion is the best on the market brilliant stuff.I would start adding the first nutrients around week two.The plant's will still have the nutrients that are in the soil so use a quarter strenth and build up over a 4 week period.Also get hold of a bud additive like buddy or bud blood this will increas the yeild no end.Keep the lights has close to the top of the plants has possible and there is no reason why u should not grow a nice set of plants.

newbud wtf you never say how the seeds are packaged ffs take that crap off now not cool

its people like you who disclose the shipping method that gets ours and other people's orders opened if they have an idea that its seeds with in the package

Go to the page you posted it on and take that info off

Shut it tool. I cant even see where he showed that but maybe its already been deleted. Customs dont sit on rollitup and look for methods of packaging. They find seeds looking for more serious drugs. Stelth packages are usually shit. They are for gimps like you. Just dont order from Holland and your chances of receiveing increase significantly. Any customs website will back that info. By the way dont come onto this guys thread and dis him. Just checked out your thread and any dipshit, other than those with some seriously good information to share, that start by saying "no posting" is most definately a tool.

Its not in this one its in a nother one. And I said no posting in my journal because
1 - I haven't started yet
2 - I want to have the stuff I will be using for my grow at the top and not have alot of posts just to find out what I'm using
3 - I've been working on getting things done to do at least a use able grow space setup to use and there won't be people asking what kind of plant food am I using and what not before I even have any that I'm going to use
4 - I would take it off but I have to message a mod to do that since after x amount of time you can't remove your post or after certin amount of posts after that one in the same forum will lock it.


Good grow btw but you should look into getting some B-1 Thrive and or some Super Thrive
Don't mist your plants because that will encourage mold and powdery Mildew and that's hard to get rid of.
For soil grow you can use solid plant food you don't need to buy the expensive hydroponic plant food for the veg part but when its starting to flower that's when the liquid plant food would be good

most soilid plant food that I've seen so far say use 1 tsp of plant food in 1L of water. Just use a mesuring spoon that says 1/8 and use that amount in 1L of water

My apologies tool. I was under the impression that you meant time release nutes in solid form. You are indeed correct but there are many, not very expensive liquid nutes available. Anyway i cant be bothered to get into a discussion about this.
