just started germinating some feminized AK48 from Nirvana this afternoon, using the shot glass method will be checking on it tommorow to transplant to a pot.
gonna be using bio bizz all mix soil and for feeding after the first 3 weeks or so will be using bio-grow and bio-bloom. for lighting ill be usingsome 30w 6500k cfl's gradually adding more as it comes along. area im starting in is a small cupboard so ill be using 2 bulbs to start with and then gonna be moving to a wardrobe (which we are finishing off tommorw) sometime this week which will have at least 4 in it (bearing in mind im only growing one plant this time as its our first grow indoors)

Got 3 of these in a micro/hydro grow right now. hope you get the more indica strain, nirvana seems to be a hit or miss. But so far I like the results. Good luck

Run your lights (as many as you plan to run ) in the wardrobe to check your temps. I have a cabinet/wardrobe and im hitting 102 at the moment :/ wish i would have gotten better set up before i planted.

heat aint an issue neither is smell so if it gets too hot the wardrobe doors can be opened for a little while.
hopefully the seed i have in the shot glass over night has started to crack, gonna be checking on it and potting it up around 2:30 this afternoon ill have pictures up on here for dinner time. gonna be finalising the drobe aswell so ill put up pics of that aswell.

I'll be staying tuned in for this grow. I have some bagseed flowering right now and just received some BlackJack fem seeds from Nirvana and plan on building a cabinet, so I'll be checking out how you built your drobe and watching the ladies flourish. Subbed.

well the seed had sunk to the bottom of the shotglass so potted it in some bio bizz all mix and stuck her under one light for now. area is quite small probably no more than 1ftx1ft x2ft shall be enough for the first few days though

I didn't even germinate mine. I just dropped it in the soil and waited. It took about a week for mine to pop through. Just give it time malone. I'm sure she'll pop through any day now.

yup time is a bitch but you gotta wait!

I started germinating an AK-48 seed (and berry bomb) on the same day as you XD took about 4 or 5 days to pop the surface, I just planted them straight into the medium and chilled!

Keep us updated! happy growing.
