My First Grow, super noob!
Alright, well I took the advice and separated the seedlings into their own pots today. I know bagseed isn't usually worth saving, but its not often that the weed I smoke has any seeds. I had 13 between the two pots and picked the six healthiest and very very carefully transplanted them. The wet peat pots made it easy to break up the soil and then I used a fork to pull away some of the dirt. In most cases the root ball was completely intact with dirt still around them, so hopefully they weren't too disturbed.
I also upgraded my lighting system with four more CFLs, 24 watts each 1750 lumens so thats 7000 lumens plus the plant light which is 50 watts, but didn't have a lumen rating on it.
I went to a used computer store and got the most powerful motherboard fan they had and hooked that bitch up to my box and made a passive intake so my plants can breathe. Which consequently solved my humidity problem. So now I'm just going to be hoping my seedlings make it for now.
Thanks for all the tips, but I don't think I'll be able to get the HPS ballast for now. It's hard to find anything like home depot or a light store in the south side of Chicago. I went to a different hardware store though, and almost bought this big 500 watt halogen thing, but I'm soooo glad I didn't. I was all excited about it cause it was only like 10 bucks. Thankfully I pulled up this message board on my iphone and found out real quick. I never thought I would be learning so much about lights. lol, I'm a political science major not a lightchemist or something or the other.
I do have a question, about my peat pots. Has anyone else tried them? It says I can transplant them with the pot and all when I'm ready. True?
Here are some updated pics too!
