I ended up purchasing 2 female seeds from an online store. I bought a Big Bang seed and a Blueberry seed (there were different blueberry types but I believe I purchased a normal blueberry strain). I grew once before but it didn't work out too well. Anyway, I'm trying my 2nd time and here's how I plan to do it:
1) I plan to germinate each of them in a moist paper towel in the dark for a few days until a root sprouts out.
2) Now I plan to grow them in this ORGANIC miracle grow seed starting soil. I plan to buy 2 grow lights at WalMart that says that it's specifically for growing plants. It's a light that's about a foot long and I've used it before so that's why I'm thinking I'll use it again. Plus it's fairly bright (gives off a purplish light )and I plan to start indoors in a small closet area. The lights costs about 20 bucks.
3) Anyway, I plan to grow in this small closet area until my 2 female plants get to be a foot tall or so. Maybe 10 inches. I plan to leave the 2 small grow lights on 24/0 until they reach the 10 inch area.
4) Once they become a foot tall I plan to transplant them in some Scotts potting mix (each in their own pot of course). Then when they're outside (I live in the state of Maine so we don't have a warm climate all year round) I plan to water them every 2 or 3 days until the 10th day. The 10th day when they've been outdoors I plan to mix some bat guono in the DISTILLED water (I forgot to mention that - I plan to use distilled water the whole time). I plan to water it 2 times with just plain distilled water and then every 3rd watering I plan to add the bat guono.
5) On the 30th day I plan to add some blood meal, bat guono, worm castings (this one is a maybe because I haven't found a place to buy it yet) and plant/vegetable food in the watering mix. I plan to feed/use as directed on the bag so that way I'm not giving it too much nutrients.
6) I plan to repeat step 5 (by giving them the nutrients here and there) until they flower around late September/early October. In Maine we only get about 11 hours of sunlight during the summer and when September rolls around we get about 9.
I just want to know if that sounds like something a more experience grower on here would recommend.
Oh, and I paid about 30 bucks for the 2 seeds so thats why I'm only growing 2. I don't have alot of cash and I like to keep it as simple as possible. And I'll repeat one last thing - I plan to use 2 of the grow lights at walmart only until they turn 10 inches or a foot tall. Ok..that's about it. Any comments or additions are appreciated. Thanks.
