Gold leaf photo

First photo grow bergmans gold leaf. I’m germinating using paper towel method seeds sunk overnight so in the towel now waiting for taproot. I’m going to start them in the jiffy pods once established moving them into 1 at clear plastic containers with holes drilled in them Have a few different mykos products some root packs you put at the roots mykos Azos etc. I’ll b using them along the way after the qt going in my 3 gallon fabric pots with a mix of happy frog coco loco my own worm compost bat guano bone meal blood meal and extra perlite I’m going to start the plants under my 600 watt burple led then once somewhat established ill hang my vivosun 1000 watt I have the blue bulb and the red I always confuse which one is which. Hps mh. Anyways I have my humidifier dehumidifier ac temp controls everything one question I do have when I hang the other light do I need to hookup the vent to the extractor fan or can I just run it out of the tent on its own. I’m excited gonna b a good grow

The one thing i noticed clear plastic container, are you going to use the clear solo cups if so you will want to put the clear cup into one of the red ones so light doesn’t get to the roots. I don’t use the Hps/Mh lights but i believe they need to be hooked to your fan to get the heat out of your tent let tag a few growers @dbrn32 @Zee @Covertgrower

You will want that light hooked up to the fan to pull out the heat. MH for veg, HPS for flower. Happy growing…

I agree with Deepsix, you’ll definitely want to keep the roots from seeing any light. So you’ll either want to double up the Solo cup with a solid color to keep light out or just transfer the seed over into a solid color solo cup. As for germination, I will follow a different method by soaking the seed for the 24hrs and then directly into the Solo cup soil and then DO NOT MESS WITH IT. depending on the vigor of the seed/strain I would expect it to pop up/sprout within a day or 2
Many many variables… good luck

Thanks guys appreciate the help I’ll definitely put them in something darker so no light gets in and I have a 4 in fan now the holes on the light are 6 inch and I have the six inch ducting do they make a connector or should I just get a six inch fan

I put the one with the longer root in the jiffy pod in the humidity dome I have with a seedling mat on 78f about 58 humidity I’ll give the other with the shorter root another day before giving it a home

@shady424 yeah you wanna see the tap roots a little larger before transplant but that one should be good here in a few days you’ll see something break through

Welcome to the community ! 5 or 7 gallon fabric pot would be a better choice for the gold leaf photo. 5 gallon is a good all-around pot for indoor growing. Just my thoughts good luck
