I'd also like to see the cab. I have germed 6 lowlife hindu kush autos...on day three now. They will be under 4 x 42 watt CFLs in organic soil I mixed with ewc, powdered lime, and perlite. 24/0 for me I'm thinking.

post up some pics of your setup... lets see what you got pimp.. I have run the sta's.. u will definately enjoy these.. There will be two main phenos... one tall and one shorter and branchier.. I enjoyed smoking them both.. the branchier phenos will have an awsome flavor to her pineappleish... dont over fert them or stunt them early.. u want to give autos plenty of root space, especially depth.. u will be surprised how much autos want to stretch their roots..

day 3 from seed. I am also doing 6 thai x super skunk (freebies from attitude). So far, day 4 from seed, I've got one hindu kush and one thai x ss sprout in jiffy peat pellets. They're both pretty tall sprouts.

I'm putting the jiffy peat pellets in party cups after they show first true leaves, and then in 8" pots (not sure about the volume of the pots, will get back to you on that).

Ok I measured my pots and they're 2.5L

Now I'm assuming that they are not going to be too small since hindu kush autos are supposed to stay really dense and compact (attitude says they don't get bigger than 14") but if need be I will get bigger pots later.

What are your thoughts on pot size? I'll be honest, this is my first grow. I've read everything I could get my hands on and then some, but it seems the tiny things always get left out of guides (read: pot size/transplanting)

ive had my hindu kush in 2l lemonade bottles. they work pretty well for the hindu kush as their root system is smaller than that of for instance the ak47

cab looks good man. How much did the lights run you? I think next season I'm going with a 400w cmh but I'm still curious.

Also, have you germed your lowlife hindu kush yet? I've been having quite the time popping them. It's day four from seed and only 2/6 have broken the surface.

What did the germ guide consist of? You mean the MFR's right? I know how to germ, I'm just curious about what I assume is something a bit more specific to Lowlife seeds.

soak for 24 hours
pre split the seed
into cotton or paper towels
plant when tail pops out..

gotta be careful splitting it.. it shouldnt take much after the soak

yeah the autos from DB have some stubborn little shells but as you can see not that hard to germ if u give em an easy crack..
