This is my first attempt at growing. Started with seeds on July 3. Put 3 fem Green Crack and 2 White Cookies in some water...then paper towel. All but one GC showed taproot (wouldn't even sink during soak so I figured it was a bum seed).
Put into Solo cups with SS #4, extra perlite, and some EWC.
2 out of 3 GC came up but neither of the WC made it out. Started germinating 3 more WC.
Kept the GC in my little area with CFL lighting while I prepared and tested temps in my 3x3x6 veg/flower tent.
After a couple weeks I moved them into the veg tent:
- 600w MH with air cooled hood.
- 6" fan pulling roomrair through the hood to outside vent.
- 4" fan hooked to a carbon filter to scrub and cool when needed.
**I've been keeping my light at 75% power to keep it from getting too hot in the tent.
July 16 - Transplanted the GC into 3G fabric pots and gave them a little Vit B and Rapid Start.
- Two of the 3 more WC survived and popped from the soil but one died because I couldn't get the seed casing off of the sprout. I waited for it to fall on its own...kept the hull moist...still wouldn't shed it. So I tried to pluck it off. Needless to say...I'm down to one WC now. Lol
July 21 - gave my GC a FIM and their first real nute watering at only 1/4 of manufacturer suggested amount.
- WC is still under the CFLs with a tiny nute watering
