Hey all!
I thought I wasn't going to make a diary at first since the lowryder-closet-grows are not very interesting these days. But then I thought it could be good to keep track of everything and maybe I could get some advice if someone drops in and sees something interesting. Its my first time after all!
Grow room dimensions: 2ft x 2.5ft x 1.5ft (width x height x depth)
With lamp + reflector + 5" pots I get ~12-14 inches for the plants to grow on. Due to this I will give the Lowryders a shot for my first run.
I wish to try LST/scrog with a short-growing non-auto later in my growing career.
Lamps are 200W Envirolites, one 2700k and one 6400k. I use one at the time. I bought a starter pack of Hesi nutrients.
Here is my room (located 6.5 ft up, makes it impossible for short and curious guests to sneakpeak ):
So far I've done this.
Germination of seeds took 30 hours (I did 4 of them, 4/4 germinated). I used distilled water and a constant temp of 76 F:
The morning after I could see the little ones struggling to break through the surface of the soil, this is how it looked later that day:
Day 3:
Today its day 5 and I watered the plants for the second time, using nutes for the first time. I used Hesi Super Vit (full dose, 1 drop), TNT complex (1/5 of recommended dose), Root complex (1/5 of recommended dose). I'm starting to see the second pair of leaves popping up!
Since day 2 I've been on a 20/4 light schedule. I'm planning to switch to my 200W 2700k after two weeks.
I'll make a 1-week-report in 2 days. Can't wait!
