Everything is set up..

[Skateboardingpunk420]

Finally. Ive got my light hung, the location is suitable. All Im waiting for now is my seeds to germinate. This is my first TRUE grow, I just got the seeds from nice smoke Ive found elsewhere.
Containers: I have small, about 6-8" in diameter, and about say.. 6"tall??
after transplant, I was going to use five gallon buckets..?
good??
As for soil, which I have to use, I found some organic stuff.. I plan to start seeds in this, so I looked for the best I could find around here, that is, without ferts, so I dont burn my young ones.. but all I could find was this stuff, says it has plant food in it, but ITS ALL NATURAL, that everything about it is organic, so I hope this will work.
Now as for starting, should I just stick with the big light, 400 watt HPS, or I could use a small, 20 watt floro and keep it right on the plant until I sprouts (and it will sprout cause Ive tried to use this thing before, got a nice 8 inch or so plant, but then the leaves just starting dieing and it slowly withered away, I would assume lack of light? it was only a 20 watt..) GIve me your best oppions guys, I want to post more on here after Im started, cause I will need help..

THANKS A FUCKING LOT

and i am one of em hehehehe!
when your seeds sprout, use the floro, put as close as possible to seedlings.
i would not suggest using the big light on them until they are at least 3 to
4 weeks old, or until they have a few, at least 4 sets, of TRUE leaves.
the intensity of the big light will kill em.
it has been my experience to put only 8 to 10 hours of light to the new seedlings. i`ve read, and experienced, more females to male ratio doing this.
this is just what i do, not a set in stone thing.
18 to 24 hours of floro light is what most do.
