GHS - BIG BANG grow journal

Oh if you had germination problems then I might know why. Word on the street is that you're not supposed to germinate the GHS fem color coated seeds. They're supposed to be planted directly in the soil right out of the pack. Funny thing is I only heard about this after I had already grown out my pack. I used the regular moist paper towel method and my GHS seeds germed just fine. That being said I did have one SSH seed that germed OK but never sprouted after planting. Maybe if I had planted directly into the medium it would have made it, we'll never know.

Its funny you say that because thats the reason i didint paper towel em' in the first place, i did put them straight in the soil and 3 came up, i should have stated that more clearly when i said that i germinated dem but i guess i forgot,
ive checked the remaining pots since then and the seeds are still sittin there not doing anyting!
oh and they were just your normal batch of seeds from GHS not coloured ones...

I germed a seed before and when i transplanted it, it came up with the seed still attached and then the root went red and it died..

By the way, have you seen how GHS colour their seeds? check it out man, im pretty sure they got it on their website, you would have thought the process would damage the seed.

This may sound like a silly question but im just gunna come out and say it cuz its bothering me and i need to know so im gunna put it out there and just go with it.............
Can i use a 24hour timer for my oscillating fan?

A bit of bud porn untill the time is right...

Funny story real quick.....
Just got back home after sortin out me bruv and me ol'doris was round wiv the missus. The missus was looking real sheepish like and me ol' dear was just staring at me...i was like WTF?
Apparently she noticed a light on in my 'grow room' and went to turn it off, she dont know its a grow room....uh..well she does now!
She was givin the missus 21 questions and asking me do i have that HEATER on all day and night!!!!
I said dat aint no heater dats a 400watt HPS!
honestly sometimes i tink shes the one
She cool though, well she aint cool with it but she aint no narc innit so a few words when i pop round der and all will be well!!
She knew about my last grow but just dint want nufink to do with it..fair enuff.

Day 17 today and fed em' some nutes. All is well..

I was thinking about switching to 12/12 tomorow. I was going to take em' to 1st december before i switched but i thought maybe, if i switch now den they should be showing pistils by the 1st december...
what do you guys reckon?



oh and had a short natter wiv the ol'doris and she just dont want me to grow any more den 3..
Sorted. well it really aint in her control anyways seens it aint her gaff..

i'm guessing the missus' knowing about the grow is adding a little pressure and you want to flower early? don't 12/12 yet, wait till it gets to its 3rd week at least. the bigbang shows its full potential if you grow it a bit bigger.

i plan to veg mine for about 4 to 5 weeks.

nice grow greenhouse has some good strains

Nah, she cool with it, she has to be if she want any of the end product!
The reason is because i got family coming over in the new year, who was supposed to be coming over for xmas.
This grow was supposed to started in jan 2010 but i had to change it so that they finished before family come round....if that makes sense..
but anyway yeah im guna take tha advice and give it another week atleast, so thanks for all the help, still gunna go and get my bloom and algamic today though while i got the money.
