this is a roughly 4 gallon air pot. this seed went right from germ to this pot with a sprinkle of great white. in this grow for first 3 weeks will be tap water only left out over night. microbe life and cal mag will be introduced week3. soil for this grow is roots organic. light cycle is 18/6. I have other big bud grows going also but this is going to be my best. I've done non stop research and have stumbled on the others. this is under that green long mars 720w led.
