so this is my fourth grow right now iv only got wat I think is 1 ak48 and 1 aurora indica I got the seeds mixed up I had 5 of each but only 2 total germinated so this is what I think is the ak48

and her is what I think is the aurora indica

they both got burned a little bit or may be a def but theyve gotten better and are still growing. nirvana sent me 5 AI replacement seeds on the 27th should be here any day now. my setup is a genhydro aeroflo 20 and 2 400w hids but I'm only running 1 cuz I only got 2 plants. so here's he start of my new adventure any input accepted

I never worry about my first set of leaves, but it looks like they we're in some serious humidity, wit the ph being slightly off ?

thanks for the reply lemon they're in rockwool in an aeroflo 2, 20 site aeroponic system.it's the best method of growing iv come across so far.this is my 3rd grow in it and nothing has matched the height and yield. let's just say I grew some 10 ft tall plants in it with 2 weeks of veg

Hi jordan293,
I am, trying to, grow AI too! I just put the 5 seeds I got from Nirvana into a tiny Burpee seed starter I got at Lowes and am hoping for them to sprout!

Best of luck, I'll be following your grow, subbed.

jordan293, how long did it take for your seeds to germinate? Mine have only been in their little coir pots for a little over 24 hours now. It's 75 degrees at the coir pots and 95% humidity. I am so nervous about them I am carrying the remote thermometer/hygrometer around with me LOL.

LOL thanks jordan293 you're timeline is right on it was the third day exactly for them to pop and I got 100% germination! I am so excited. Now I am terrified I'm going to damp them off or drown them. I cut the humidity from 93% to 78-80% and am adding the fluorescents in tomorrow. Cervantes says 18"-24" so I'm going somewhere in that ballpark.

curious2garden, fluorescent lights can be as close to the plant as you like. If they aren't within 6" the plant will likely stretch and that is undesirable.
