After a lot of planning and research and worry, I finally said 'fuk it' and went ahead and ordered seeds. Nothing like the ticking clock of a plant's growth to spur industrious work. So, I'm going to document my first ever grow here. Here's hoping things turn out well!
--== Highlights ==--
Strain: Nirvana's Blue Mystic, feminized seeds
Medium: Soil
Grow space: PC case mod
Method: ScroG planned w/ a single plant
Before I post pictures, here's where I currently stand:
Good experience with Nirvana. Seeds arrived within two weeks, securely hidden with a kind extra gift. I chose their Blue Mystic due to their claims of it being neutral-smelling. We'll see. Right away I took a single seed and started the germination process. It took a little longer than I expected, 3 1/2 days, but just this morning I checked and finally it had a little tail.
Seed has been planted in a plastic cup with some Scott's soil, and in the meantime I have been working on the PC case. The case is an Antec Two-hundred, which provided a decent amount of space inside at a not-unreasonable price. Selecting a case took the longest time of any part of the process.
I am now mostly done with the overall layout of the case, though I still am thinking on how best to configure the ventilation and what my options really are in terms of light-trapping. My basic goal is complete stealth, but since my room-mate is kind of clueless and does not enter my rooms at any time, I can be a little lax on it especially early on.
