This is technically my second grow, but the first time was one plant in a maybe HALF gallon pot under a desk lamp, turned out to be male anyway.
So, i cleaned out one of my closets, got some buckets and soil, and decided to give a real go at it. I've got three 5 gallon buckets filled with about 5 parts poting soil, 1 part peat moss, and 1 part perlite. And with leftover potting soil i decided why not try another in my small potter. I've put 4 seeds in each bucket and 2 in the small pot. This is in hopes that i can get at least 1 female in each.
My lighting situation was originally a half-cocked plan to use two ~23" cabinet fluorescent fixtures and a splitter in a tall lamp for 2 CFLs. This was before i got a pleasant surprise; i'm just chasing my cat to get in the damn house and he gets up in the rafters of my shed just chilling on top of some boxes, shop light boxes, fucking like 8 of them. so i got shop lights now.
Bagseed, allegedly KB, nuff said i think.
Its about 8 days into it now, i only set up the shop light a day ago so i think the lack of light has caused the plants to reach a bit. Since i had more soil leftover and room to spare in the buckets, i put some in to bury the lower part of the stems. Picture time now i guess. And i do lower the shop light a few inches from the plants, raised it for sake of picture.
