Pretty boring but also a Pretty exciting week getting our first grow started. Nervous about doing it right, so many ppl have their own "ideas" of what's best and many conflict with each other. So here we go

Well, only 1 of the 2 Granddaddy purple sprouted so far. I received my 9 LB Hammer seeds on Christmas Eve. (Merry Christmas to me) and my GDP hadn't sprouted yet (2 1/2 days) so, what the hell, I added 2 of them. On Christmas morning (25th) one of my GDP sprouted, on the 26th it was not looking good so I added nutrients and on Sunday the 28th one of the 9 LB Hammer sprouted 😍. (The look pretty perky now.) I'm concerned about my water temp so I've got a chiller coming this week. A little issue controlling my temp, at times it's 82-84°. 4 seeds, 2 sprouts so far.

Pretty rocky week, couldn't get temp down on my "Dealzer" grow box and the company wasn't available to advise. Chiller for the resevoir is delayed in shipping. Kinda beating my head against the wall

Well the chiller showed up late in the week...I was going crazy worrying about air temp & root temp. Ended up purchasing an in line fan and reversing it so I could pull air from the grow box, considering the company was NO HELP in trying to get my temps down. (Obviously the fans provided were underrated) Now I'm maintaining a temp of 81-82 with the door closed with lights on. The chiller is keeping the roots at 70° up to about 72 when lights are on. Happy with how it's gone with these modifications.

@jefyandniky,My FAV is the 9 Lb Hammer and GDP as a close 2nd. Getting it was hit and miss so thats why I started to grow...HOLY SHIT BALLS I'm learning, but still intimidated somewhat. Good luck with your GDP.

Don't overthink things. It is a really simple plant to grow, less is more. We all live and learn, So just enjoy the grow and have fun! Best of luck, cheers.
