Its a soil grow.
I have 5 seedlings, they are progressing.
My cab is built out of cardboard (its cheap and easy to work with)
Soil is organic topsoil with about 50% perlite.
For lights i have a 150watt hps, and a 85 watt(true watts) cfl (blue)
Ventilation, I have two 4" fans move plenty of air.
Ambient temps hover around 83 degrees, with relative humity in the low 30's. Temps will go up to about 89degrees max depending on ambient temp. I found a solution for that though. Its winter here and just so happens that my closet has the attic access in it so i plan on opening it up to let the cool air in/hot air escape
They have been growing for about a week now, progress is slow, but its speeding up, i hope they go into the vegitative stage this week and really start to grow.
For nutes I this time around i am going 100% organic. I picked up some worm castings, and some blood meal, with some salts, just in case i go into a mg dec like i did last time.
My last grow was 3 plants, 2 ended up being female. I got a total of about an oz. (little less). I hope to get bout 2 oz this time around. But we will see where they take me.
Pictures to come, i see no point in posting pictures of seedlings.
