On November 8 I placed the seed directly into my medium and watered with about an ounce of regular tap water. Placed under the Mars Hydro TS600 in my small 2'x2' (70cm x 70cm) tent with an 18-6 light schedule. I made my own mixture of medium and placed it into 3 gallon (11 litre) fabric pots. I read somewhere that the seeds germinate better with higher humidity, the humidity in my tent is only 45% so I placed some clear film over the fabric pot to see if I can increase the RH, not sure that will do anything because of the fabric pots, but we will see. This is my first time so everything is going to be a learning experience.
I mixed up 6 gallons of my medium, made up of the following:
- 70% MoKoko
- 30% Pro-Mix Organic Seed Starting Mix
- 1 cup (240ml) Organic Worm Castings per gallon
- 2 tablespoons Gaia Green Organic 4-4-4 All Purpose per gallon
- 2 tablespoons Gaia Green Organic 2-8-4 Power Bloom per gallon
- Around 5% Perlite
I am very excited to start growing, this will be my first ever grow. I am tired of paying $10/g at our local cannabis shop so instead invested around $500 (total with the kit, seeds and medium). I hope to some day get $500 worth of cannabis from this setup, but that might take a few years I suppose, but I am not sure, I dont know what to expect. Even if I can get 30 grams from each plant then thats like a couple hundred dollars retail right there, so I am hoping for the best! :) Wish me luck :)
The temperature inside my tent seems to hover around 21-22 degrees. Should the temperature try to be the same for all stages? (germination, veg, and flower)
Thank you!
Poke some holes in your plastic to let some air in. Seedlings like high everything except nutrients, 25-27 temp and upper 70 plus. Honestly for your 1st you should have started in plain soil or jiffy pellets, then transplanted. Try to stick the meter inside so it gets a better temp and Rh 👊👍 good luck
Now that everything is nicely cured, I’ve been enjoying the smoke, it’s got a nice flavour but I really thought I should mention, there is no way this is only 0.8 percent THC, if I smoke half a joint I get a pretty strong buzz from this. It’s not overwhelming but it’s not what I wanted when I grew this. I would estimate the THC at around 4%, and maybe the CBD to be around 8-10%. It’s nice just not what was advertised when I purchased the seed.
