Issue 2 passed here in Ohio and I wanted to get started right away. Very little previous experience on my own, but had been already busy all fall getting my outside garden going so I had some supplies but not much compared to some of you absolute Chad pros. Went to my local head shop I had been going to since I was about 15, roughly 30 years ago, and got the cheapest Fem seeds they had. I wanted to stay away from autos because I wanted more control I guess. This is how I found Royal Queen seeds. Sour Diesel was the cheapest 3 pack they had. Sativa dominant too so I was all about it. Later I would find out that RQS is quite reputable and I was definitely getting pumped. Started in a paper towel. Only took a couple days and I felt the taproot was getting a little big so I dibbed them into these seed trays with 2 parts All purpose Miracle Grow and 1 part coffee grounds. Absolutely winging it.
@James, Hey James! Check out week 8. Is it possible I ended up with a rogue autoflower in my batch? It was bought from Puff n' Stuff in Mayfield Hts, Sour Diesel Feminized. Batch #BB23BF02102 if that helps. I still have the orig. packaging if needed. Thanks!
Everyone counts it differently.
No stress at all.
I count first 7 days since seed touched soil a germination week. I just drop it straight, no fuss.
8th day is first day of week 1 of veg.
Flipping to 12/12 again, first day with duration of 12 hours - first day of flower.
But there is no rules, you will hear many ways . It makes no difference generally.....
