I want to start this with everything I used to get to where I am at now....
*2xJiffy Green House 36 which includes 36 peat pellets.(Wal Mart)-Roughly 5 bucks.
*4xJiffy Peat Pots 5.(Wal Mart)-Roughly 10 bucks for 4 packs.
*3xJiffy Starter Soil.(Wal Mart)-Roughly 4 bucks each.
*5xDistilled Water.(Wal Mart)-88 cents a Gallon.
*1xDoctors Garden Lime.(Lowes)-Roughly 5 bucks.
*7xEvergreen Cow Compost.(Lowes)-1.39 Each.
*1 Bottle of SuperThrive.(Wal Mart)-9 bucks.
*1 Bottle of Hydrogen Peroxide.(Wal Mart)-89 cents.
*1 Aqua Aquarium Pump(Wal Mart)-10 bucks includes tubing, stones, and etc.
*4xGrow Lamps Tubes...17Watt(Wal Mart)- Roughly 7 bucks each.
*2xSterilite 30 Gallon container with lid.(Wal Mart) Roughly 60 bucks each.
*1 Roll of Aluminum foil.(Wal Mart) 96 cents.
*1xCheap Fan.(Wal Mart) Roughly 5 bucks.
*2xCheap desk lamps and 2x40Watt Grow Bulbs.(Roughly 30 bucks)
I germinated my seeds in paper towels. After that I put then in the peat pellets and placed them inside the Jiffy Green House covered until they got their first set of leaves. Then I uncovered them and put them under the desk lamps/grow bulbs with the cheap fam blowing on them. After a few days I transplanted them into the Jiffy 5 Pots with the Jiffy starter soil. When I transplanted I used distilled water that had 1 drop of Super Thrive and a teaspoon of Peroxide in each gallon. I completly soaked the soil and let it drain then I added the sprouts.
After all the plants were in the Jiffy 5 pots, I put them in the Sterilite container. The Sterilite containers were lined in foil and I drilled holes in the top of the lids to hang the 17 watt grow lamps on top. I threw the little cheap fan in there to circulate air and had a intake and ventilation hole in the front and rear of the container. They stayed in that environment for about 2 weeks. Next I put them outside for a week so they could get use to the outside environment.
When the week past, I planted them outside in the ground. I tilled the land a week before I planted with compost and dolimite lime. I feed them compost tea, super thrive and water(no chlorine). I started them on April 13 and they are doing very well. Pics will follow.
