First grow in new grow room

CannabisWWger · #1 10-16-2009, 01:58 AM

Ok I am new to RIU and this is my first thread, so I hope I don't look too much like a fool..lol..anyway's lets start.

I just finish building a new grow room finally I will be able to move out of the closet.
My new grow room is 5.5x5x8.

I just got my seeds I ordered last week and I am also waiting on my second order I did 3 days later..

I thought I would give a few AF a try to see if I liked them or not, so in my first order I got Automatic Blueberry, Big bang, The church and on the second order I got Lemon Skunk, Himalaya Gold, Easy Ryder and Automatic White Moscow..

So I have started the first seeds with the paper towels method yesterday evening, and so far half have cracked.

Oh I forgot to say how many I am doing of each, I am doing one of the blueberry and one of the easy Ryder and one of the white Moscow and then 2 of each other strain. (all are fem. seeds)

So once they crack I will be planting them into half gallon pots with Fox Farm Light Warrior Grow Medium , so it looks like I will be doing that either tomorrow or the next day, and the second order will be just a few days behind but they will fall right into the mix.

I will start veg. under 2 400w lights, one MH and one HPS, also in the room is a 4 ft. 4 tube flo. I will be keeping the lights about 2 or so feet away from them at first so i dont end up burning the babies and when they are a little bigger i will move them like 12" from the tip of the largest plant.

When they are ready to be transplanted they will go into a mix of Fox Farm Original Planting Mix, Fox Farm Ocean Forest, Vermiculite and also Perlite in 3 gallon pots.

I am using an organic plant food called: Pure blend pro grow from Botanicare for my veg stage and Botanicare Hydroplex Bloom Enchancer plus Molasses for the flowering stage.

I believe that is everything at the moment.
I will be posting pic of my grow room and babies either tomorrow or the next day at the lastest.

Comments, help etc is more then welcome.

Today i had 2 seeds ready to go into the pots, the other ones are almost ready but i thought a few more hours and then ill plant them.

Here are a few pics.
The first one is of the biggest seedling (AF bluebeery and Big bang)
The second one is of the 2 seeds i put into pots.

Tonight or tomorrow i will have a few pics of my wannabe grow room and other seedlings.

Well here is a few pictured i said i would post.

Lights
one 400w MH and one 400w HPS.

An idea of the grow room.

This is a vent that blows fresh air in.

A pic of the plant food i am gonna be using for my Veg. stage.

This is the hook up to the heater, and living in the north like me it is gonna be cold this winter so it helps to keep the heat up.

Today the AF blueberry has finally popped out of the soil, hope the other seedling does too today and i also have another seed ready to be planted, but one of the curch and one of the big bang hasnt cracked yet, but ill give them more time and i still havent got my other seeds but i am sure they will be here monday and then ill crack them "hopefully".
so probably by next friday the other seeds will be planted too.
ill have a few more pics later today too.

Here is a few pics of the seedling i just told like 5 mins ago, the first pic is of the first one to pop out of the soil, the second pic is of all 5 seedlings, the two half gallon pots are one of the church and one of the big bang.
The two little pots are of two seedlings that havent cracked yet so i figured i would just plant them and give them a week and see what happens.
Hopefully my other seeds are here tomorrow so i can get them started and get all of them into the grow room.

any comments are more then welcome.

I am also gonna do 20 bag seeds too.
I figured why not, i should have the room even with 3 AF strans and 8 other plants in a grow area of my size, i am gonna start them sometime tomorrow in the paper towel and just see what happens and when i go to 12/12 i will just seedof the males.

CannabisWWger · #9 10-19-2009, 09:59 AM

Well to start off i got my other seeds which are Lemon Skunk, Himalaya Gold, Easy Ryder and Automatic White Moscow.
I also think i am not gonna start the bag seeds today, mostly b/c well i am just lazy lol

This time when i did my seeds i went back to the way ive been doing it for awhile, instead of the paper towel way i do it the way Greenhouse does theres and ive always found it has a higher rate then just using paper towel, i let them sit in water for a few hours till they don't float anymore and all but one isn't floating anymore so i took all of them and now i have put them into paper towel so if they work as all the other seeds i've done that way i will be planting pretty much all of them tomorrow, i will have more pics within the new few days, only one have fully popped out of the soil and the other ones should be also by tonight/tomorrow sometime.
