Budmaster 675w LED Grow

Ok so the formulex has done the job and the seedlings are now starting to grow. I accidentally knocked a pot over which broke a stem so I'm down to 5 candidates for my 4 pot grow. The CSSH is the largest seedling and if I'm honest I thing the soil mix with feed in has done it. I'll try formulex straight off the bat next time I germ some seeds and see how that compares. Moved the seedlings into the grow room and the BUDMASTER is at 1/2 light so they get used to the led. I'll put it on full when I've given them a day or so. Here's a pic or 2

Looking good

Yep leaps and bounds as they say...

These little seedling are sssooooooooooooooo slow. It's been 3 weeks at least. I decided to start 4 more beans. 3/4 have popped and are now in rockwool plugs. It's a bitch to start over but it had to be done.

So today I decided to have a look at the little seedling and find out what's going on. I was pleasantly surprised to find a mass of roots circling the seedling pots they were in. Happily I have now transplanted into a 60/40 coco/hydrorock medium. I've fed them 1L of 1/2 formulex also. I like what this formulex stuff seems to do as I've never had a mass of roots like that at this stage. Unfortunately I didn't get a pic :0 Here are some pics I've just taken. the last pic is the medium I'm using. Hydrorock on top is to prevent evaporation as it can be warmer in that room. My humidifier is also missing as it decided to go on strike so RH is 37 at the minute. Can't get a new one until early next week.

BUDMASTER is now on full strength. It's kept at the height of the grow tent as instructed by BUDMASTER. Just thought I should mention that. Can't turn the auto pots on until the roots have reached the bottom and the plants are well established. I believe the timing is why people have had poor results. I think maybe 2 weeks of hand watering will do the trick then swith it on. CANT WAIT!! lol I'm a bit excited about the pots.

One more thing:

Using a range of nutes called ionic by growth technology for this grow rather than the bio green as the organic type can clog the pipe work from res to pot so gone with mineral based nutes as recommended by autopot

That's strange but good luck hopefully that transplant does the trick I'm sure it will though.

I thought it was strange also. I have been worried about the lack of activity above ground so decided to take a look underneath. They are approx 2.5 weeks old and they had covered 65% of the pot. The pots aren't big though so it's not THAT impressive lol. Maybe 3x3 inch and 4 inches deep. But still more than I'm used to seeing.

Yea sounds like some lovely healthy plants time and patience my freind time and patience....can't wait to c these autopots in action....

Looking good!!
