Im always starting and stopping depends on which plant your talking about... LoL:bigjoint:
Haha, yeah. Ive got your scrogg forum subbed :eyesmoke:

Little update guys. All three of the seeds have germinated, and all three were put into 16 oz cups.

The Stoned Immcaulate and the California Hash seeds have both sprouted, they've been 2 feet under a 400 MH since last night. The bagseed hasn't sprouted, but it also germed a day after. So I'm expecting to see a sprout today or tomorrow, then i'll move her over.

Nothing really to see yet, but here are some pictures right before i put them into the light

The little seedling that's a little ahead is a serrano pepper. It's been at that stage for awhile now, I wonder if it's the soil I used for it. Does anyone have as bad luck with Light Warrior as I do? My last grow I lost 2-3 seeds to it, and the ones i did manage to keep were the ones I transplated into Ocean Forest.

Anywho, here's a shot of my cab. Same as last time, no changes have been made. It's still pretty simple inside. Just got a new job so I may get around to making some upgrades.

Thanks for reading :eyesmoke:

edit: carbon filter removed for right now. No smell :)

Your the second or third grower I've heard say theyve had a hard time getting plants to grow in light warrier. I bought a bag when i first started growing and have not had any problems with it. I also heard that ocean forest is much hotter than light warrier. Maybe its the extra fert's in the ocean that makes them grow better. One thing i do is when i germ my seeds with the paper towels i use a little floranova grow along with some floralicious plus. Maybe thats the difference bec i never have any problems. I have to stop myself from germing more bec if i do they will grow! :leaf:

Yo lookin good so far, glade i can be here from the start this time. keep us posted, ok?
Yeah, I'm glad I'm starting with you guys from the beginning too. Last grow was my first and the start was pretty shaky. I lost a few seeds to Light Warrior my first go, this time I used 3 seeds and all three seem to have sprouted. I think you're right about that additive with light warrior, because I feed them nothing but RO water and they hate that combination. But as soon as I give them nutes it seems like it's too strong, so I'll just stick with the ocean forest :eyesmoke:

Anyway, only been a day since they popped but they seem to be growing much nicer than my first time around. I skipped CFLs this time. Mainly due to the work of setting up hanging CFLs again in the cabinet, such a pain. The Stoned Immaculate is getting kind of stretchy, gonna fill her up to the top with soil later on.

Anyway, so far so good. By this time last round I had purpling sprouts

here are some pics i took a few minutes ago.

Threw up the catnip plant, just cut it back completely and it's already giving lots of new green growth after a feed. Due to lack of green i felt i should include it

Hey guys, how's everyone?

I've got a small pic update here.

All three girls have been in their cups for about a week now. Happy to report all are looking nice. By this time my last grow, I had already lost two seedlings and the rest were purple/yellow. So I'm happy for the improvement. I'm 99% sure it's because of the Light Warrior I had been using. Not sure if it's the batch I'm using or something I'm doing wrong, but i've retired it completely.

It seems the no name bagseed is growing the fastest, followed by the Stoned Immaculate and then California Hash plant. I'm probably going to start two more bag seeds tonight to increase my chances of a third female.

Anywho, here are some pics. Two are kinda stretchy, i'll rebury those in the first transplant, The bagseed never lost it's shell, and this is the longest i've seen it stay on before. :eyesmoke:

They look good dude.
Thanks dude!

Still looking about the same, except a few more leaves! I'm gonna throw up some pictures later, but it may not be interesting to you guys :eyesmoke:

I did throw in 4 more seeds today, just some bagseeds. Just started a new job so I'm gonna be looking into buying some seeds here when this grow comes, pretty excited for that lol.

Anyway, hope everyone is doing well!

Hey guys,

Glad I waited on the pictures, because I woke up this morning and a bunch of new growth. Loving it!

Out of the 4 seeds I threw into paper towels 3 looks like they've germinated. Threw them into 9 oz cups with ocean forest. There is still the fourth bagseed.. it cracked but the inside looks nasty. Poor little guy..

Anyway, here are some pics :eyesmoke:

Hey whats up! They are growing but what nute's are you using?
Hey dude, nothing much. Just got off work ready to smoke and jump in the shower.

Right now I'm not using any nutes, just plain RO water. They're in fox farm ocean forest right now, so they should be good for awhile.

But as far as nutes, I have the Fox Farm Trio and some Cal/Mag+. Last grow I barely even used any nutes in Veg though because of the Ocean Forest. You notice anything off or just curious?

Anyway, thanks for reading dude! :eyesmoke:

hey dude, nothing much. I got cal/mag because I use RO water and ran into a def last time around. I'm sure it was mainly due to my feeding schedule, it was my first grow. But it has cal/mag, nitrogen, and iron in it

anywho, not much has happened. Here's a pic i just took. Out of the 4 bagseeds, three germinated and they're coming along.

The Stoned Immaculate and California hash are staying perky, but the one in the back is staying pretty droopy. Probably due to underwatering, it drinks so fast.

In the next couple days I'm gonna go grab 3 - 3 gallon smart pots from the shop. Last time I tried going from Party Cup -> 1 Gallon Smart pot -> 3 Gallon smart pot, and another went straight from Party cup into the 3 gallon smart pot. Didn't really notice a difference in growth.

Anyway, thanks for reading :eyesmoke:

I looked up Cal/Mag after i ask the question and I think i might go ahead a buy some. Looks like good stuff to have around just in case.

Good old bagseed, you can always bank on them germing huh?

Speaking of a drinking plant!! This 12/12 from seed plant i started for the 12/12 From Seed Contest is a thirsty Bitch! She would drink 240cc of water a day if I'd give it to her. Today I gave her azz Kool Bloom and drenched the shit outta her azz. She's blooming but growing more than blooming. I been giving her Jack's (20-20-20) for a week now and i fig if I change her to Kool Bloom (2-45-28,)she might slow down some with less Nitrogen to stimulate growth.

As for repoting. I have a philosopy, Plant it where its gonna die. Long story short i dont think it much matters how big a pot is when you plant babies as long as they got plenty light and water they'll do fine. I love smart bags, they are the best! Im still using the 1st 4 i purchase and am using them for the 4th time and going strong!!

Im getting ready to purchase some more Airpots though. I have one and so far the plant loves it and since Im going to be redesigning my space, once again, they will work in fine with how Im going to set things up. IDK what Im going to do with all the smartpots I have. Im liking the Airpots more for a reason I didnt know until I got one. The smallest they have is a 2 gallon but depending on the depth you set the bottom insert at, it could still be a 1 gallon pot! I know, why would you want to do that? IDK but at least its adjustable if you want to adjust it. Another added benefit I didnt think of is that depending on how high you set that you can set the whole thing in a tray of water and leave it for a couple of day'z if need be. :bigjoint:

Hey guys, whats up

Got a few things done this week. I've been looking for a little watering can for awhile now, could never find one. Walked into a grocery store with the tiniest gardening department and found the perfect one. So much better than pouring out of the bottle I was using before. Also got some wire hangers for some early LST which is my favorite part about growing. I love bending them :eyesmoke:

I've got the first three in 3 gallon smart pots right now, and the newer ones are still in tiny party cups.

I only transplanted them a day or two ago, and they've already showed more growth than before the transplant. I started lsting them this morning, just bending them over to the side. Last grow I started way earlier on the bending, so early that the stem came out at a 45 degree angle. Where as now all the plants go straight up, then a near 90 degree bend. I'm sure it's mostly aesthetic, I'm not sure which I like more bongsmilie

Anyway, I've got some pictures I just took, but can't find my cord to upload. I'll have some up later on today. Thanks for reading :leaf:
