I germinated Arjans ultra haze #2 1
purple lady and 2 Violator Kush, all feminized. The purple lady's taproot was abt a centimeter and a half long and half the seed shell fell off, i hope that wont hurt it? Both vicious kush seeds sprouted small taproots and one of the arjans did, but i just threw the other ungerminated seeds in the soil to let it do them the old natural way.
Anyways, let me start by my soil. Ive read a good few or post on here and i know miracle grow is bad, but those seeds needed to be planted. So i went to Lowes and bought Miracle Grow Seed Starting Mix, and some Perlite made by miracele grow.
I mixed about 30-40 % perlite into small pots and planted the seeds a half inch down, and sprayed some water to get the top of it moist. I then put it in my window sill since by lamp wasnt assembled yet, and it was almost dusk outside so it didn't get much light until the next morning. I hope the moisture and the long night in the dark would not cause it to rot!
So today i went and got a timer and extension cord surge protector etc and hooked up my 600w mh/hps combo. I put the Metal Halide bulb in to try to sprout the seedlings, is this the best? Its about a foot away maybe a foot and ahalf away from the pots, should it be closer?
MOST IMPORTANT QUESTION:
So i just got my babies under my 600w metal hallide at 11:00 PM exactly. How many hours shoudl i leave the light on when trying to sprout? Should i let it run all night until i get up for school tomorrow at 9:30am since they havent had much light?
Thankyou
I just got them under my 600q
