First inside grow ever. First grow in 26 years.
Started 6-10-20 3:30pm
10 seeds unknown name.
As you can see, I’m Patching in a small area. I’m just 1 week into Patch. From all the reading I been doing on E-Books from here, and on forum here, things look good and in place and on target.
Germ Method: Seeds in-between 2 pieces 1 ply toilet paper, or paper towel, as long as it stays wet or moist. on a saucer, soak, with water only, every day in dark cool enclosure. My Results: 5 seeds sprouted in 2 days, 3 seeds sprouted in 3 days, 2 seeds still have not sprouted, and it’s been 8 days, I fear those 2 seeds to be dead.
Don’t forget to keep toilet paper wet, because it’s the moisture that causes the seed to germinate.
Be sure to have all the edges of the toilet paper, or paper towel on the saucer, or it will cause the water to drain from the saucer.
Have your soil ready to plant prior to Germination. My soil is a pre-fab food mix, lasts up to 4 months.
{{ Do not feed your ladies nutes, while in pre-fab food soil. Because all nutrition has been added already. See packaged soil bag for details on how long nutrition suppose to last. After that date, begin your ladies on a light diet of nutes, gradually increasing. }}
I let germination tail get a tad longer than my index finger nail. That’s to the tip of your finger, long finger nails don’t count.
Then I gently grabbed the seed in-between my thumb and index finger…gently pulling in reverse of tail, if it was stuck onto toilet paper. Poke hole in soil with other index finger, only go finger nail deep. Place germinated seed into hole, tail first, cover everything up, be sure not to cover seed with to much soil, or it might have to work to hard to break ground. You still have to water your newly planted germinated seed…2 squirts from water bottle will be plenty, to start with, because you don’t want to drown them.
This below is definitely not the light system you want setup for your plants. But it’s what I can afford. At least it is full spectrum led.
Was running lights first week 16 on and 8 off.
Shots of 5 days growth, below. I do have a box fan running in back, for air circulation.
My girls should have more growth by now. These shots below are of 1 week growth.
Now 6-17-20
Lights new hrs 12pm - 10am lights_22hrs
Reason: My lights are not strong enough. Can’t afford high dollar lights. I lowered my lights.
Yes, I know their growth pattern will change once they get final transplant into bigger pot. More root room, bigger better plants.
6-18-20 Received my final grow bags in mail today. Will be getting fresh, 9 months, nute treated soil on 19th. Will do final transplant on 19th. Here’s the 3 gal. grow bag and treated soil pic. below…
Hey, I have grown weed in regular dirt b4 and was successful. So if I can’t grow it in treated soil, then there is something wrong, right.
6-19-20 and I got the final transplant 3 gal grow bags potted.
My 8 girls are in their final transplanted 3 gal grow bags. And back in their room under their light.
6-20-20 I gave each of my girls 2 cups of water today. Exactly 20 oz. out of 20 oz. drink bottle. Will not water them again for 2 days. Also decided to leave lights on continuous, because still in seedling stage. Will leave lights on until 3 weeks old.
