Ok so this is my first attempt @ doing a grow journal, and my second grow
here was my first and recently harvested grow: it started out like this ![]() but only turned out a little more then this. ![]() very airy and fluffy and it even suffered some root rot (thank you aerogarden) at least it was only bagseed and good learning . So now i have designed my own cab using a sterilte 4-shelf cabinet. duct fans, mini fans, 150w HPS , and still the aerogarden. ( as a seed starter light for soil seedlings) I have also decided to go completely soil this time, as i heard it was a sure-fire method for producing the herb. well it took 2 days for the 2 seeds to germinate and show their rootling. right now i have them in a seed starter tray with seed startin soil under a AG light. the temp is at 80 degrees . I will post more pics when they sprout and show themselves . Here is the setup and what i intend to use when i transfer them to their next pots. Any suggestions on this would be greatly appreciated , i'm just looking to have to best grow possible (aren't we all ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]()

I awoke this morning to a glorious sight indeed.
My two LR2 babies had finally penetrated the soil. The pics aren't that great , becuz they are so small ,but oh well soon enough they will be bigger. here's both of them side by side ![]() here's lefty still hasn't shown his leaves but he's working on it ![]() and it looks like righty is in the lead ![]() temp is stayin at 85 maybe a little more right now . I intend to change that on friday(payday ) with and active exhaust using a inline duct fan. Right now it's just using active intake (duct fan) and passive exhaust (duct-hole @ top and behind plants). After their roots are established they will be moving below in their bigger pots under the HPS . what lighting schedule does everyone suggest on the seedlings right now ? using the AG lights i believe are 60 watts CFLs more to come |

Day 3
Well not *much progress, so i didn't really get around to posting day2 pics . I was about to skip day 3 as well on the update, but since you guyz just keep bugging me for updates , here they are. single pic of lefty ![]() i got 3 pics of righty ( she's my favorite) ![]() ![]() ![]() Now i've noticed they all have beautiful purple stems, but i think i may have read somewhere , these are bad, any info on these ? cuz they pretty much look healthy. ![]() The temps are stayin around 85 during the day with the light schedule set on 18/6 (all the way through since its auto-flowering LR2). at night when i jack the A/C up in the house the temp tends to drop a bit , but nothing below 75 i intend to move them down when they get bigger under the HPS , right now under the AG - CFLs probaly wont update for a few days just to keep the content good, dont wanna just upload every day. i'll do that more when they get bigger 60 days till harvest ![]() Last edited by HiddenHammer; 05-28-2008 at 02:50 PM.. |

You only got 2 plants going? I would germinate more If I were you for 2 good reasons. 1- LR have a lower rate of females compared to other strains 50/50 chance. I had only 1 out of 5 my last grow. 2- they are small and you can probably grow 3-4 or more under 150watt HPS. Go ahead and germinate some more now in a paper towel in a paper towel in a baggy and place it on the top of your computer tower for warmth and they will germinate in 24 hours. They will not suffer from the delay I'm sure. I grow with a 150watt HPS (with four T5's for side lighting) and next time I am going to try to grow 10 seeds in one 10 gallon pot. Hopefully I will get 5 females. You are going to be pretty bummed if you get no females with only 2 plants.

yeah to tell you the truth i was gonna do more , but i couldnt afford more pots, and i reaaly wanna grow them all in the same-style pots (for looks only and i'm kinda anal like that) but i made money today so i will pick some up thanx for the info.
isn't it great i can throw more under the light @ anytime, since it's auto-flowering and the light schedule is 18/6 no matter the stage of growth i love LR2 |

Best if you get them going soon so they don;t have to compete for light as some get taller. You should also consider pollinating the lower buds on one plant for some free seeds. I did this and got 200 seeds. Good luck. We have alot in common - failed AG groe then move on to the cabinet grow with HPS. Just ask if you have any ventilation questions when you fire up the hps.

Why not 2in each pot if money is as issue. I'm going for 10 in one pot! I think the 150watt can handle it if you have some sidelighting. I use daylight T5's and my buds were nice and tight at harvest. Good luck.
