This is my very first grow!!!
The room I'm using is 6.5' x 4' with an 80 inch ceiling. I painted the walls, ceiling and floor with flat, brilliant white ceiling paint. I stapled plastic sheeting to the floor instead of buying saucers. I will use saucers or something comparable if I have to flush the plants.
Seeds:
-30 Northern Lights seeds purchased from www.marijuana-seeds.nl (non-feminized)
Lights:
-Two Sunlight Supply Sun System 2 400 watt HPS reflectors with built in ballasts (air cooled)
-Eye Hortilux Super HPS EN bulbs
Growing medium (percentages are approximations):
-52% Premier Pro-Mix BX w/Mycorise
-42% Fox Farm Ocean Forest
-6% Perlite
Nutrients:
-Fox Farm Grow Big, Big Bloom, and Tiger Bloom
-Sunleaves Indonesian Bat Guano
October 2nd:
I germinated all 30 seeds using the paper towel method with distilled water.
October 4th (Day 1):
All 30 seeds germinated but I only had 26 pots. I wet the soil with plain distilled water (no nutrients added) and planted 26 germinated seeds. I will leave the plants in the dark until they break the soil.
I have a couple of questions:
-About how long will it take for the plants to break the soil?
-How far should the lights be from the plants when they do break the soil?
I will post updates at least once a week. Comments/advice/questions/answers are all welcome. Thank you.
