1st Time Grow Log

[GreenEyesRed]

We currently have four plants, in 3 pots. We'll be separating 2 soon. We are currently on week 3. The average temp has been around 85, I am hoping that this new fan will bring it down some...

separate as soon as possible, those roots grow very fast

looking good already matey. What happened to the other runt?

i agree with cactusman23 those roots do grow fast.....

How did you start them off? soil, cubes, paper towles? just wondering....

They'll be split tomorrow.

Tonight we finished up the drip system. We have .5GPH drip ends on a 330GPH water pump. It's scheduled to run every other day for 15 mins. We can change the frequency if needed.

We started the first two in a wet paper towel, once they sprouted a little, we moved them to the soil. The other two, currently together, i just stuck them in the soil and covered the top with plastic wrap. Weren't expecting much out of them, however they seem to be doing the best. We buried 5 seeds in that pot, 2 sprouted within a week and a 3rd about 2 weeks, the 3rd didn't make it past the pod leaves.

We're still waiting for the exhaust fan to be delivered, on schedule for Friday delivery.

We started nutes a bit early but only because we needed to, the babies were turining yellow and seemed to slow their grow so we figured it must be the N because of the lame soil we (I) picked out. So now they are on a low dose regiment of Superthrive (1-2 drops per gallon) and Miracid 30:10:10. Even though horrible things have been said about anything miracle grow, our limited resources turned up this to be the most effecient source of N food around, although it may turn up to cause a PH problem later.... Very low doses of root stimulator and starter soultion *ferti-loam, have been added with the recomended dose being 1 tbs per gallon, the water tub has been given 2 for the five gallons its holding. As mentioned earlier the two planted in the same pot will be seperated later today, the smaller one in the corner will be leaving and will be put into some better soil and more room but all the same as far as nutes.

looking good, keep those fluoros on 24/0 or 20/4, they'll keep em nice and short. as far as mylar or paint, i'd go with the mylar, i'm using emergency blanket mylar for my setup, its real cheap. Flat white paint is good too.

it's been about a month i guess, we're up to 5 plants, ones not doing too well. We found another one growing up under an existing plant. It's the smallest, youngest one you see. They all seem to be doing well. We're watering and feeding on a regular schedule. We added a new 4410 lum/42w cfl last week, and rearranged the cabinet, removed the center divider to double the grow space. The new exhaust seems to be working fine with a new larger fan.

Check out the photos, leave what feedback you may have... Thanks again!
