First Grow Journal, so bear with me.

Strain: WidowCindy
Medium: Organic Soil

Overview: Growing Earl's widowcindy in Fox Farms ocean forest soil with 100% organic compost. Surviving seedlings will be vegged for a month under t5s, cloned for sex, and flowered under a 1k hps. 2.5in starting pot size, moving to 1gal bags and then 5gal buckets for flowering.

I water with dechlorinated tap water, I am aware of the strains calcium sensitivity.
These arrived one day out of the blue from nobody in particular.



Here is another Bean pic



I started with 14 seeds, decided to germ 10 and hold onto the other four in the genetics pool. 7 popped and are now keeping vegging satoris company under the blue lights.

Here they are today with a closeup.



Hope this all works out, Thanks earl!

Hey, good to see you started. Don't worry you will do great! Your setup is very similar to how I am going to do it. I just have a 600watter. It looks like your are off to a really good start! You should really get distilled water though. I know you have heard if before but if you go the to store they will have the 2.5 gallon jugs for under 2$. Those are good for about one watering maybe you can get 2 out of it. It will be worth the investment though!

I dunno, From what I thought the challenge was more of a hydro thing. Plus I have about 3 strains that need to get popped so I get some variety in the flowering room.

Damnn Man i just joined Rollitup and your one of the first grows i've seen. VERY nice thinkin of starting something like this soon. was gonna go with Hydro but im liking the pots better Keep Growin man =]

Soil is way forgiving on mistakes and takes alot less maintenence and equipment. I want to grow hydro eventually but for now Im loving the orgo train.
