Pics of seedlings:
Box 2 has 3 seeds from a indoor mix from Ch9
Box 1 has :Special Kush in far left, Fab13 on right and a indoor mix in the front. Hope the Fab13 sprouts soon.
Anothe pic of box 2 and the New light that burnt out already lol.
Tomorrow i will be raising the pots within 2 inch of lights and seedlings to keep streaching down, pics taken right befor i watered so they look a litle dry in middle. Middle part is where i piled up a seed starter mix and added soil around it. All seeds but the 1 sprouted in 2-3 days so far.
Need to get a fan for box 2 still but its cool in basement so heat dont build up to much... i vent the boxes 3 times a day for fresh air water once a day with a mister for another few days then to a 2-3day watering.
Any questions or advice would be great.
