Hola Amigos!
I started another thread about my growing attempt but I thought retitling and starting over with a more accurate(and properly spelled) title was probably a good idea so here I am![Smile :) :)](/styles/smilies/icon_smile.gif)
I started from seed right into soil on April 9th, I didn't want to do the paper towel technique since I read somewhere that the sprouts produce micro-roots that embed the paper towel and are torn out when moving so I figured I would try doing it the way nature does.![hump :hump: :hump:](/styles/smilies/hump.gif)
So far things have worked out for me it's looking like. The plants seem to be taking off and doing just fine on the veg growth phase, now I just need to wait until time to switch the bulbs and timer to the flowering stage to see how it does.
I am doing a soil grow using Roots Organics soil and Fox Farms Neuts along with some Cal-mag and Earth Juice micro-nutrient solution and R/O water cleaned down to 3 PPM for a base.
I have never grown before, so this is a double experiment. Do I have anything close to a green thumb and can I get enough floral growth to sustain an average medical marijuana patient.
The seeds went into the dirt on April 9th in the early evening.
How long do you guys think I should leave them in Veg before switching?
I gave them their first application of Neuts at 1/2 strength yesterday ( 5/3 ) and checked them this afternoon and they seem to be doing ok. No obvious signs of leaf tip burn as of yet.
Here are what they look like at almost 1 month old. and a few shots of my grow area. I will continue to give updates on my status and reports on how well the T-5 system functions both in Veg and flower.
I sure could use any advice or suggestions you would care to make and hope that this will work as a guide (if I succeed) to those who can't use HID lighting for whatever reason.
Anyway, I am outa here to go ogle my plants again.![Smile :) :)](/styles/smilies/icon_smile.gif)
Wish me luck!
