Ok , so i made my own Rubbermaid grow box with 4 CFL's , 2 internal fans , 1 intake fan and 1 exaughst fan.
Temps rage from 75-85 , 90 on rare occasions.
So i ordered 10 White Widdow seeds , throw them under 2 moist paper towels , 3 days later - Tap root - yaaay.
So i throw my seeds 1/2 an inch under the soil and mist the surface of the soil heavily.
1 week later , no plant. I dig up the seed to see that the tap root is shriveled and dying. Ok , no problem - this is my first time.
Search a little and realize that misting is not enough so water my soil heavily under the tap and let it drain for 10 mins, switch of my exaughst fan to maintin more humidity. Germinate 2 more - and yaaay tap root again.
Throw them 1/2 an inch under the soil and .. guess what... no plant. Dig them up to realize they are shriveled and dying. De ja vou ?
Im now down to my last 2 seeds and i cant afford to fuck up further. I have YET to see any leaves emerge from the surface of my soil. In fact i have yet to see any LIFE in my soil after planting my seed.
Soil:
60% Potting Soil
10% Sand for water retention.
15% Perlite for water drainage and aeration.
5% Pre-mix 15-15-15 for some natural nutes that arnt in the potting soil.
Soil PH , is around 7 most of the time dropping to 6.7 - still within acceptable ranges.
A seed for your thoughts ?
