Damn, still drunk....
You guys crack me up reading this stuff.. I like how into the connesiuer?? side of things everyone is.. I wish I knew what everyone was talking about...
I enjoy just growing some fat ass buds and smoking fat ass bongs, with not much thought into anything else..
Maybe if I was more educated I wouldn't go back... Maybe what I don't know is better for me..????

[The cap]

Hey... Just back from damn water change..!!!! Yeah would love to have another crack at some nice strains.. But I can't get the hang of growing seeds...
Clones, no worries, but seeds nope, kill em every time...

 

[Buck123]

You ever done any R&D on Propagating seeds? Its bloody easy champ your in wa yeh? you shouldnt have any dramas about cold temps... Mate suggest you go buy some ezi plugs and a fluoro light or bang em straight under hid!

 

[The cap]

Yeah I've got fluoros and bought a Seed Dome type thing... Used rockwool just not sure about the whole process.
Got some good info off people and still fucked it up

 

[Buck123]

Well the domes are fairly Useless... I use em for a few days then discard of it cause it creates major problems... My Fool-proof Seed raising mix contains food from the get go so they're fairly hard to kill.. I use
~Cow Shit
~Coco
~Perlite
Mix it up at a ratio of 60 poo 10 coco 30 perlite... Thats composted shit too bro... Soak beans for 24 hrs Paper Towel in a Zip-lock On my hot water service gives it a really good boost... So i usually go with a small tail like 3-5mm I pre-wet my media with clean pure water
grab a pen make a hole bout double the size of the seed... Cover gently over with soil not completely tho i like to be able to see the seed so light can get in there and do its job chuck under 24/7 best lighting for seeds i think no dark cold times for the little seedlings is better i change down to 18/6 after they become actual plants lol.. Water those lings lightly they are generally happy when they're facing the light all perky and shit and generally unhappy when the cotlyedons are droopy... the use of the humidi domes are good but as i said on for a few days i keep the vents half open the first day take the lid off twice a day to for fresh air then 2nd and 3rd fully open vents lifting the lid again then by the 3-4th take the lid off... A T8 setup or the thicker fluoros keep them suckers almost touching.. a t5 is generally hotter and requires more distance tho i have not used one before! try that any questions fire away i have tryed many times to sucessfully master seed raising with no nutes or food but i think they are happier with some food straight up!

 

[Buck123]

I should add they can be started straight under HID too just keep em at a safe distance for a few days common sense really haha! or buy those ezi plugs man instead of my recipe they work mad too also hard to overwater!

yeah rockwool sucks

and humidity domes can kill seeds. they cause damping off. i think they are mostly for people in cold climates. thats one thing you gotta remember when on the forums. most other people are in cold climes and all there advice is suited to that not our balmy weather.

fucking 95% humidity at my place at the moment reached 100% at one stage yesterday. thats outside my grow room. my dehumidi is working over time getting nearly 20l a day out of it and its still only dropping the humidity in my room down to 75% too fucking high aaaargh. hope the weather eases soon or im looking at another case of bud rot either that or im going to have to buy another dehumidi and run both

 

[The cap]

Sounds good... I think I'll have to have another crack..!!!
Cheers....
I would like nothing more than to know exactly what I've got..!!!!
Take it easy , I'm off for a couple of more cheeky beers and watch the footy..!!!!

 

[Buck123]

Fiwh god damn bro! is that the a/c you picked up??

Rockwool doesnt suck, its just an art to get the balance of oxygen to water ratio, other than that, rockwool rocks, i sprout all my seeds in rockwool with no issues.

 

[forgetiwashere]

yeah it works a treat like i said im getting nearly 20l a day, the weather is just really fucked. really need it to fuck off for another 2 mths lol

each to there own i just find it easier to go straight into my bucket in hydroton. only ever tried rockwool once though so i guess i never gave it much of a chance

 

[Buck123]

[Buck123]
