hey everyone,
I found a bagseed a few days ago, (ive been trying to get my hands on either seeds or clones for a while, because i've never grown before and would like to try it. Ive had everything id need except seeds) and I decided to try to germinate it, just in case. Well, it's germinating. I'm so excited. Of course, I know it might not be female, and it might not grow well for any reason, but still, it's an exciting feeling.

congrats dude its a fucking awsome feeling. i just got a second started. save 50 bucks when you can and get a couple of fems from attitude they will also give you a freebie so its worth it big time. invest its a very practical matter. Godspeed sir and happy growing. get good lights just saying HPS or CFL's. amazon is a good place for CFL's just make sure to type grow light after 50-60 is what you can expect but its worth it.

Have you done any gardening? Are you experienced in keeping plants alive? If so, enjoy. If not, this plant can be a teacher. cn

it's a 50/50 chance that it will be female, but even if it turns out to be male it's valuable experience. Then you can buy some real strains online.

I say get them from seaofseeds. Then it will only be $40 for 3 fem seeds (special queen #1 or something else cheap, it doesn't matter cause the freebies are quality) and you'll get 6 free seeds.

Have you decided on soil type, lights etc.? It'll take both time and money to make this work ... germinating a seed for indoor growing is a commitment. Jmo. cn

The first seed, which i planted has broken the surface of the soil, and grew nearly an inch last night. I planted another successfully germinated seed earlier today, and i have one seed just beginning to germinate. Theres still one more that im unsure of whether or not it will germinate, but 3 out of 4 germinating isnt bad for them just being bagseeds. Im having altogether too much fun with this. Pics as soon as I find my camera.

Hey, all.
Sorry it took so long to get a picture up, I couldn't find my camera, so I had to use my phone's camera. Sorry about the quality. One about 4 days older than the others. So far I'm having a lot of fun with them :D

But I did have the light too high when I planted the first one, so I believe I stretched the stem a bit. :/ How much of a problem is that gonna be?

Not too bad ... you can bury some stem when you repot your pot.
To really limit stretching, provide some blue light. cn

Update: The second to youngest plant seems to be recovering well from whatever was wrong with it before. Its growing at a steady rate now and all seems to be peachy :D

6500k range lights will promote females, so will higher levels of nitrogen. Just FYI. Sex isn't determined until after the seed has sprouted.
