dude mellow out, indoor growth isnt rocket science. your over doing it man, settle down, get some MG potting soil some cfl's and i also use a grow light in there too. Just let it happen, put on some beathoven in the grow room and let your plants love the sounds, youll also love it too. Shit man, your stressing way to much over it. Get some seeds and let mother nature take its course.

Except don't get MG soil. Get Ocean Forest soil or Happy Frog soil or if you wanna be real adventerous make your own out of perlite, peat, and vermic from the hydro store. Grab yourself a 150w hps for a personal grow like you are suggesting. You can even use CFL's to assist the hps if you want, they work great strung on the sides and lower canops where the 150w hps can't penetrate too. Make sure you start with good genetics, order a pack of seeds for $30 bucks from a reputable online source. Heck man, people do this all over, you can do it. Just provide the enviornment for the plant and it will grow.

The most important thing is to relax, What's The problem? What equiptment do you have? space,etc???? The only way you can't grow is if someone is preventing you from growing,,.What's Wrong?

I fucked up my first grow to just be patient and get all the equipment you need before you start and it will be so much easier.

Sorry I didn't read were you said this was like your 5th time a easy way to start seeds is to put them outside then bring them in when they sprout.Do you think you could be overwatering?

what did you do to fuck up your first grow??

my very first indoor grow..

i put my plants in some storebrand soil

and threw some 4ft floresnts lights over them and grew away...

18/6 veg....then...12/12..

i got high as hell off my first grow...( bag seed )

granted i was younger i didnt know alot..

but i had the pataints.... i left them alone...

i water them when need be..and left them on the timer...

i used the 4ft tubes the whole time...

i know better now ofcourse...lol......

Hmmmmmm. I've found it's easy as pie. Sorry to hear of your troubles. I had trouble at first germinating seeds. I was pre soaking and planting them too deep, I think. Now i just stick em in 1/4 inchand water em. I was trying too hard at first. That was my problem.

Most importantly: DON'T GIVE UP!!! ;)

sorry about those negative vibes but thanks for the positive ones. just planted my next batch of already germinated seeds. luckilly, I had felt the failure coming so I started more seeds after I planted the last ones. who knows what the problem is as far as I've read I've done the right stuff. this time I planted them closer to the surface with hopes that it works. thanks again guys.

~cheers~

It's probably something simple you're doing wrong.

Your soil has extra pearlite for good drainage?

Your containers have an inch of pearlite (or other drainage material) in the bottoms)?

Your containers have drainage holes that's aren't being restricted?

You're letting the soil dry out between watering's? African violets like constant moisture, MJ likes some dry spells.

Your water doesn't contain clorimine?

You aren't frying your seedling with too much light/heat?

Feel free to message me if you need help :peace:

bigger rocks(gravel)

I think this was the mistake on my first grow... on this one- check!

Your water doesn't contain clorimine?
using bottled water-that's cool right?

You aren't frying your seedling with too much light/heat? DEFINATELY not the problem but could probably use more light...

hmmm I'm already stumped lol

What kind of lights cfl's? If so keep them 5" away for the first week. Floro tubes can be closer

What could be killing your seedlings right out of the gate?

You're starting in small containers so the can dry out between watering's?

Waiting to water until the top inch of soil is dry before watering again? Don't keep the soil moist, wait until it looks crusty, and the container is light.

Misting them a couple times a day for the first week?

Humidity is good 50% or higher
