[bugman52]

i normanly dont do stickers but i thought some of these were kinda cool so i stuck 1 in the room.
seeds im gona run are Calyx Bros some Bubblegum crosses [fem,s] an 3 s dubb x blue dream [fem.s]

 

[bugman52]

i put 2-3 BG crosses each in 1 papper towel theres 12 in there

[Mars Hydro Led]

It is a nice beginning. keep it up.

 

[bugman52]

11 out of 12 bubblegum crosses germ an 1 sdubb germ none of the super rich germ , been washing some pots.

 

[bugman52]

i got the pots bleached , washed an filled with potting soil ,i put 12 seedlings in 3 gal pots, theres 4 empty , 16 pots in a 4 4 square, [that maybe too many as plants get bigger]

i tied up the wires on top of the makeing it look alot nicer

 

[bugman52]

a couple above soil, the light is at 75% an 32'' above the pots , ill bump up the power once there all up good.
soil mix is pro mix , worm casting , cow manure , coco core , gypsum , an a small amount of organic fert

 

[unclefishstick]

officially the cleanest spot in bug's house!

 

[Mars Hydro Led]

Total 16 plants! that's nice. they will happy for the clean environment.

 

[bugman52]

the first problem is a yellow jacket nest in my walk way to the room ive already got stung twice once on my right bird finger & on top of my bald head, the nest is just in front of vent fan [an yes t know it dusty ill clean it when i get rid of the yellow jackets] the seedlings are starting to pop up ,
i moved the light down to 24 '' an back up to 100% i, i filled the 4 empty pots with 4 Grape Ape f2 then my intake fan.
every thing seams to be going good

far

 

[Mars Hydro Led]

They poped out of the soil. For this stage, 100% power might be overkilled for them.

 

[bugman52]

ill bump the light back up to 30'' an lower the power some

 

[Mars Hydro Led]

Just in case of light bleach issue.

 

[bugman52]

i raised the light back up 32'' above the pots . the seedlings are taking off.

 

[bugman52]

things are taking off, i fed some kelp tea yesterday

 

[bugman52]

this one had a hard time sheading the shell an it findly just broke off but it looks like its comming back , way smaller than the others , lets see if it can catch up with the others

 

[Mars Hydro Led]

Just hope it will not fall behind too much.

 

[bugman52]

man these seedlings are taking off, much faster than normale for me, 2 days after i water in the kelp they exploded an dubbled in size, im real impressed with this light so far
