Ahhh, you silly man you! You bought that expensive setup and don't even know what to do - LOL!

First off, I wouldn't use that HPS on your seedlings, maybe a MH, but not the HPS. Go get you some Fox Farms organic soil and start your germed seeds in that soil. I like to start my seeds off in 16 oz cups, then transplant in about 2-3 weeks to their final pot. I'd use at least 3.5 gallon pots for your babies.

Also, go buy a PH kit, temp/humidity gauge, some fans, and possibly a humidifier. I think you need to read the GROW FAQ as well, doesn't sound like you have done much research. You will find that a lot people here will not hold your hand all the way though this unless you actually attempt to do a little research first.

Get some Supersoil,ExpertGro(Walmart),Fox Farms Ocean...etc,get a bag of manure or worm casing..etc,some perlite or vermiculite,peat moss. Then get a jar and put distilled water in it with a little phosphorous and add seeds overnight.In the morning get jar and any seeds on the bottom of jar plant those only. Use 5-7 gallon pots until harvest. KEEP SMOKE ALIVE!!

5 to 7 gallon pots? Don't you think that is a bit excessive? Maybe if you were working with 100 percent sativa. 3-3.5 gallon pots are good enough to sustain a plants life for 3.5-4 months. Plus those bigger pots tend to take up a lot of space. But hey, to each their own.

You're right,but He didn't say what strain he was growing either. I always use that size so that I can get a deeper tap root,plus it's good for him because he has room to mess up if so. KEEP SMOKE ALIVE!!

from your first post it sounds like you have no clue what your doing! It's ok you don't have to try and cover for yourself! Try reading the grow faq top left and this grow faq, if there is something you don't understand ask away.
