OK today I had only 1/2 day to play.
I had to go into the hospital for some routine tests (I am over 50 ya know, and colon cancer runs in my family) but that was this morning.
This afternoon I
[img 1]installed the carbonair filter with some 2x4s left over from the wall above where the HPS will end up for the flower cycle.
[img 2] started to presoak the rock wool cubes.
[img 3] rinsed and filled the Hydro setup, I want to let it run a while to settle any issues it may have (leaks and such) before trusting it with my babies. and
[img 4] started a heater under the veg area.
I decided to run a heater for the germination process being it is still a bit cold where I live.
I have the room temp at 75 now, but will drop it to about 65-68 for the beginning of the sprouting / veg period.
I have an aquarium heater to keep the nute solution in the hydro tray at a bit higher temp. (I read somewhere that about 70-75 is ideal). I may be wrong.
and finally
[img 5] I installed a small fan for when they start standing up tall on their own. You can see it attached to the wall in the left side of the image
I settled the PH of my water last night its sitting at 5.8 on the button =)
Thats about it. I will get some images once they crack and start the process of becoming my best friends
