BarrelOfTheBong So just a minute after midnight I had finally set the little lady in her new home. I have waited 9 long years for this moment. I can almost not believe that it is actually true. I can not wait to see how this turns out. I have carefully counted in 15 weeks atleast until I can taste my bud and I hope that will be enough. I know patience is key but my main goal is to be able to bring homegrown bud when I visit my parents for christmas. If you are here to follow my journey, welcome Enter Chilluminati ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ WOHO! Day 4, 85 hours in, I open the tent and I see the first glimpse of my girl. I will call her Jana, Jana Greenmoore, after the Archmage in World of Warcraft, Jana Proudmoore! I can't describe how happy I feel seeing her for the first time, alive and kicking! I bet you all know without me having to say anything though. Cheers to you all! ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ I am sad to bring sad news, it hurts but mistakes are important to notice. My seedling died to my error. I fought hard with humidity in my small tent as I believed it was most nescessary to have 70-80 % as most googling telled me this during the early stages. I also overwatered slightly by watching 2 bad videos. It later shown this was not the problem. My errors would kill the poor one. I then thought the seedling had gotten mold as a result, asked for help on another forum, and got some vague and inexperienced answers had me panicking a bit, so just removed the seedling and the top soil and popped another seed in a glass of water. Way too late I got the real answers I should have waited for, it was normal, just the white fuzz on the stem the seedling use for nutriets and protection or something like that. Normal in any case. Well. Already too late as I mentioned. The new seed is showing its tap root and I will give it a few more hours after reading this link: https://www.420magazine.com/community/threads/the-easiest-way-to-germ-seeds-water-method.136055/ And this time I will be perfectly happy with me being around 45-50% as I have been and just relax. I will only mist the top of the soil ever so slightly and I no plastic until the seedling breaks the soil. Starting up a new diary where I will copy and paste this update. Feel free to check in there! Hope someone may learn from my mistakes in the future. Cheers

I would say 40 50cm then let the plant grow until the bulb is 20 cm from plant tent start moving the lamp as the the plant grow to keep 15 20cm distance between plant top and bulb.

Would this light be good to add to my setup? (60W 55 draw cob in a 40x40x120cm tent) ://i.imgur.com/VTayXRu.png 4500 Lumen 4000 or 6400 Kelvin 50 Watt (I already know there is much better, but know I am asking about this one)

Don’t be cheap on the most important part of the grow. I’m sorry but get a light that will actually yield you some good bud man. Why go through all this effort to make sub par weed? Your plants depend on you to replicate the sun’s rays as best as possible. Shit rays=shit weed. Stop looking at lumens and lux and flux capacitors and whatever other measurement you wanna use. PAR is what you’re after. The amount of useable light spectrum by the plant. I’m telling you. I’m a shit grower at the moment and the only reason I’m getting praise for my “skill” on my diary is because of my HLG Scorpion Diablo. I’m not saying go spend 2k on a light. However I’m saying get yourself set up to be pointed in the right direction. Just like @Mrstinky said you’d be better off this the Mars Hydro Ts600. Honestly through my research COB LED is old outdated tech for grows. Anyway I don’t know what your goals are but good luck.

BarrelOfTheBongcommented4y ago
@JoeyJoeGrowJoe, It sure is. But the legal status and my conditions had me going for the smallest setup in order to supply only myself so that I can not break my promise to myself that I will NOT sell anything, I will NOT tell anyone who can identify me, I will NOT make profit. This is my medication and I risk so much by growing. But I can not stand to support gang violence any longer.. And for product that's not even pure(I have no idea what the hell is in the shit that is cut). I simply do this for my own well being and to make sure that surely there is NO victim to my crime. (Which it is when I buy off dealers where the source is pretty much always organized crime). Feels horrible to call it a crime but I need to respect that that is the reality I live in atm 😩

@KingSalomonsWeed, It feels SO good. It also feels so good to know I will not support gang violence ever again come 2022. I am tired of not know where my money goes, what pain it funds. And for produce that's rarely even pure nowadays. Thank you so much for your positive wishes. Much love to you mate.

@Ganjafarmer420flowers, Thanks bud I bet you are 100% right haha! So happy to hear you went on a journey that expanded and took you to new levels. I have heard so many examples of people who try it out and just falls in love with the craft completely. Plants and gardening overall, but mostly the specific craft of Cannabis cultivation. I'll follow you mate. Making mistakes creates the absolute best knowledge imo. It's awesome that you can own it. Love to ya!
