Start of first time growing. Some research and went with tent 32*32*62, 7 gallon pot, LED 600W lamp, soil grow. 2 small fans and 1 4" vent fan.
-2 inches of rock – Appalache Valley Drainage Stone ¾”
-4 to 1 mix of FoxFarms Happy Frog Potting Soil and Canna Coco Coco coir, added Nuturing Nature Organic Worm Castings 250 mg
Soaked seed for 18 hours and then directly to soil.
Started with two CFL bulbs hanging about 6 inches off, covered with a plastic glass for heat.
4th day there was sprout action.
7th day there were the first true leaves.
Room temperature has been consistently 24-25 and humidity is 40-50.
Day 8 November 1 Sprout has developed its first true leaves!!! A little water but leaving it alone.
Day 9 November 2 Started 18 hour cycle of 600 W LED light on veg. Water and left open curtain for venting and air.
Day 15 November 8 Getting water every day in small quantities. Sprout now has multiple leaves and are growing strong so far.
First true week of veg cycle
Seed info - I bought from CropKing Seeds, nice folks and good customer service plus Canadian so easy to deal. But I bought the 10 pack variety Auto flower Fem with no labelling as to what strain of seed. So it has taken the 4th week of flowering (Dec 31) to fully identify the strain I am using and what should I do with it lol. And this baby is a Revolver strain name from parents NYC Diesel and White Widow so promising lineage.
Day 18 November 11 Watered and checked, all good but watch leaves for deficiencies.
Day 21 November 14 Leaves do have some discolouration so added nutrients (Root Farm A) and added the bloom light to the veg light.
Root Farm A is 5-0-1
Did not know what to expect so pleasant surprise as to hardiness and size so far.
