Hi everyone, long time lurker, first time grower… lol! But i have learned alot on the forums, so thought i document my grow here too.
Soaked 4 mac 1 seeds in coconut water last Saturday evening for 12 hours then dropped seeds Sunday morning in 5gal fabric pots in a living/supersoil. On Tuesday night #1 popped with helmet head.
Here they are, 11hrs away from being 1 week since starting to soak. I am watering lightly with diluted coconut water (i harvest from fresh green coconuts and poured it into an ice cube tray for single use)
I scratched the surface of #4 and found the dud, more than likely user error since im a noob, but hey 75% germination for first attempt, i’ll take that!
@beardless All truth be told, im the one with spending issues, so her being tough on the budget is warranted🤣! Congrats on 41 years! We are going on 17, and I am still figuring how i got so lucky!
About the light, i was worried about the apparent stretch, so the morning I lowered the light. I used the photone app on android and it is reading from 280 to 287 across all 3. I’ll keep an eye on them. I have some extra supersoil, so I’ll have to bring it in and let it get up to temp. I appreciate the tips and advice, you might just opened a door for me to bug you though, lol!
Absolutely same here. I was going to just grow a couple plants at time in a 4x4. I currently have 2 4x8’s and a 4x4 tent going. 4 girls in flower and 13 clones and 12 more cuttings in CloneKing cloner.
@Bulldognuts sounds like a great setup. Eventually i want to get a mother tent and a drying tent so i can do a small perpetual run. I like to have variety, lol! I’d appreciate any advice as I go along
I apologize for the delayed replies, newbie rules and I had to wait 24hrs😁. So, I filled in a little more soil this morning. Will be topping off as they grow since I have been informed I had alot of “wasted space’” lol! Overall, I’m just astonished that it was only a week ago that I planted the girls in the soil. Here’s how they look this morning
By dream set up would probsbly to add (2) 2x2 tents, 1 as a mother and 1 for drying, but space doesn’t permit at the moment. Maybe once we move into a bigger place🤷♂️
