Dublin Indoor first timer ,

[EZG]

hello to all Irish growers , and the rest!!.

after getting mugged while scoring on a fucking corner in a dump part of this fine city
iv decided to start my own grow ,
purchased some Greenhouse seed Co. super lemon skunk , 5 fem seeds , 45 yoyos .
told there was a very good chance of success , so with love and alot of hope .

made up a 4 x 3 x 6 fram fully covered and blacked out , i found an old fish tank parts that i had , 18w florescent tube white light and a 25w cfl lamp ,i have a tower fan ,
is and underwater thermometer , heater , or a pump be any use in this grow ?

soil medium is general compost with perlite . and i have every thing to start germination , a herbal grow kit , i intend to plant 3 of the 5 seeds ?

then , out of the blue an old friend knocked on my door with a 3 week old plant , he said it was dying and offered it to me , thats that Karma shit working again!
so , i have a very poor looking 3/4 week old plant that i think was over feed , iv been starving it for a few days and iv just gave it a good watering , its looking better , i think ? i will post pics if anyone is interested .

this site and the plp who post have already helped me to focus on the reality of a first time grow and not some fucking brain fart over a game of cards with the mt8s .

i intend to make this work , and to connect with in Dublin any good plp who wish to make a proper effort in the spreading of love to the masses .

hey Kush nice to meet a fellow Dubgrower.

yesterday i started my unknown 3/4 week old plant on 18 hour light cycle , its looking alot better then a few days ago . i am
misting every hour or so .

gonna get some heavy duty white sided plastic and a large tray to my grow room in . i think i need a larger flo tube ? at least 2ft , not so worried about the temp. the room is a constant 22/23 degrees according to my fish tank thermometer .

tonight i will germinate 3 seeds and will try to log with pics the progress of these 4 plants .

what setup have u got kush ? and how u gonna germinate your seeds ? the bird in the shop said to put them in the fridge before i germinate , not sure about that ?

peace

im going to have to leave you down on that 1 because i am a cork grower but sure its all the same haha

will you try upload some pics af your grow area because i dont even have that set up yet
i am very unsure what lighting to get and i dont have any yet
what lighting are you using

today i am just after starting my germinating so i took some tissue and then dampened it. Then i put the seeds inside the tissue and put into a plastic bag. i have them in my hot press now and i have taken pictures
so i will upload straight away

talk to u again friend

peace

Great start ..
If using a good compost there is feed added , go easy on seedlings regarding feed , less is more i found when learning .
A little Nitrogen boost maybe in the form of liquid seaweed , tomato feed for flower .
I've used flourescents in veg , messed about with allsorts . They do the job .
Ideally in an ideal world lol HID is best i find , tent kit's on ebay are around 300 sterling .
400 W with filter and inline fan .
The filter is a must for growing indoors undetected .

TY brer , any advice is greatly accepted . im not to rushed on my seeds , iv held off from germinating untill i feel i know what im doing , so maybe i will start them the weekend , right now i have wired up my new light system , 4 x 14w total 3200 lumen . added to 2 x 18w 2ft flor tubes , will this work ?
im not to worried about filters , i will set up an extractor fan when the time comes , at the back of my tent there is an exhaust duck , my biggest question right now is the medium , what compost and fertilizer to use and when ? .

Erm i've only ever used low watt flours cloning or on seedlings , so for this yes .
You can also finish on flours but i've never done it .
First light i bought was a 20 w aquarium flourescent i quickly upgraded upto 75 w hps then 400 now 600 .
You'r looking for seedling soil easy got at the garden centre , use a small pot for seedling's roughly one litre .
After root's appear at holes in bittom of pot , roughly two week's pot up .
Next potting use stronger soil . I like westland's with added JI that i can get easly locally .
There's feed in compost , enough to last a month or two but after a couple of week's veg in bigger pot's you can add liquid seaweed extract = great and hard to overuse .
Whot technique do ya intend using to germ .
Sorry i'm only new here and not had time to investigate the site fully .
I like whot i see so far tho .
