hey all, i'm running a 400w MH/HPS 5x4x2 tent grow with coco. BigBuds first. seedling looks healthy and green so looks like we got lift off. my mix is 75%coco 25% perlite. got her in a 20oz cup to let her get some roots. probably transplant to a 2 or 3 gal bucket. that cheez it container is a little more than a gal, so i'm looking around to see in thats enough. i had 5 gal prepared but was informed by you fine folks that may be too much. once i get some more seeds in i'll be running another one with shorter flower time to even out since i'd like to have 2 going. those should be here in a few days. heres some pics, sorry about the quality, i'm looking at cameras....
using the 6/9 GH micro and bloom with Botinacare CalMag plus on hand. did add a little dolomite lime to the mix initially, not sure whether i should have with this type of fert. also put a little epsom in the first flush. been keeping solutions going in to 5.6 ph. for the seedling i started with just water and 2ml CalMag/gal until i saw the 2nd set(bladed)leaves. i'm now using 4 4 4, mic blm CalMag, and my ppm is around 450. i'll go 5 5 5 in a day or 2. once its 6" tall, i'll run it full on 6/9 as recommended by h3ad the wise. feel free to criticise, insult, or smack me around if you see me doing something wrong, i can take it......
