**Hello all any suggestions/advice/comments would be greatly appreciated on this thread! Any links of your grow journals are also welcomed..

-Over all, it took 2 days for my seeds to fully germinate. I used the paper towel method. I planted my seeds taproot down into my soil and misted it good with Ph'ed water. I left it in the dark for a day, didn't see anything sprout. So i put the Light on them the very next day and watered them a little less than 400ml water. The next day noticed soil was dry, misted again with Ph'ed water, a few hours later soil was still dry so i watered them a bit with 225ml Ph'ed water(6.5). Ive been having the room a bit warm, still no sign of sprouts..kind of worrying me, my last grow with the same seeds i seen a good sprout after 2 days..it has now been 3 and no sign of any sprouts. I hope i didnt overwater/underwater/damage these seeds in any way, i become quite paranoid when it comes to buying exspensive seeds and planting them. Whats the earliest i should use superthrive anyone know??

Any advice??......

-Thanks

**Staked and strung crooked plants and made them straight**


PLEASE HELP
1) Hello all i've been noticing my stems bending a real lot and looking bent. I strung some of them up and must of been stoned because i strung them up tight with bbq skewers and what i didnt notice at the time extra strength fishing lure. I just dont want to restrict the stems from growing if they are strung too tight to the steaks. Whats really worrying me is the bending and what im going to do about it because it seems when the plants get better they jsut go bent again. I have my lights at an angle because it give it more light that way, anyone think thats bad for them? Anyone have any ideas?

2) Also a real concern of mine is the smell in my house, i have a 4" hydrofarm inline fan w/ 125CFM and an elf charcoal filter. I was thinking of having the charcoal filter suck the air from the grow room and duct tape the exhaust part into the front of my a/c so it will blow out..anyone think that will be more effective than what i have now...BECAUSE RIGHT NOW MY HOUSE IS STARTING TO FUCKING STINK AND ITS NOT EVEN CLOSE TO FLOWERING FULLY.

ANY AND ALL HELP WILL BE APPRECTIATED AND REPPED

THANKS....

Very impressive setup, and the plants look great. Is the growroom sealed off completely so that the air is only leaving through the exhaust filter? I use a passive intake into my room and the air is all exhausted to my attic.

If it is completely sealed, you will have to look into upping your carbon filtration or other means of odor control. I'm growing four of this same strain, can you describe the smell?

see how those leaves are curling at the top, that means they have reached a heat barrier where they dont wanna grow up anymore b/c its too hot... see if you can lower the temps..

It looks to me like you should maybe straighten the lights out so they point straight down and then possibly lower them a little - you'll get more direct light on them that way, and it will likely fix the problem with them growing crooked... You have a lot of plants there for the amount of light too...

If you have temps getting to0 high in there (leaves curling slightly), you also may want to try and relocate that ballast outside of the tent...

Yea the house fuckin stinks and its only day 30 they do smell a lot...my previous grow i grew only 4 plants and my whole house smelt..but i didnt have a filter. For the bending problem i am thinking of taking mylar and putting it on top of my 600w and running it toward the 150w so its a "roof" type deal so the light will bounce downwards, I tried moving my lights around a bit and it just doesnt get as much light as this way..As for the smell i am thinking of having all the air from my grow room get suctioned from my filter and exhausted out through the front of my a/c but duct taping ducting to the front of the a/c where the air usually gets pulled from..anyone think thats a good idea??
