My Second grow ever.

this is my second grow ever and my seed has sprouted and is about 1/4", I'm ordering a 400 watt HPS lamp tomorrow but for now i have it under 2x 50 watt CFL bulbs. its working fine for the moment ill put up pictures soon

so far the seedling is looking really healthy.

SOunds good. Get some pics up here. and order that 400 hps. you will be happy with it.

Make sure to get more seeds ASAP in case you have a male......

i agree with wonderblunder about getting some more beans or clones.. i am growing five plants right now in the hopes that i will get just two females out of the bunch.. not only do you have to worry about it being male, you also have to worry about killing your only baby by some silly mistake or no fault of your own.. if you have more than one plant going, you odds go up with getting one to harvest.. best of luck bro..
if you need seeds, i love the attitude seedbank.. i spend hours on their just dreaming about future harvests and checking out new strains..

Thanks for the tips guys. i am indeed getting more seeds ASAP, they are barneys farm G13 haze feminized. i figure if Im going to get seeds why not feminized its worth it from what Ive heard.

the seedling i have going right now is some random seed i found in a bag of real goods. i have high hopes for this one considering my first grow was from bag seed(horrible yield i think like 4 grams... complete waste of time and effort, although i learned ALOT) ill post pics in next post.

I actually am getting the seeds from attitude. have any of you gone through them before, are they reputable?

i didn't expect such a fast response! thanks guys.

here are the pics the first two are from yesterday. the second two are form today.

WOOOT (P.S. just ordered the 400 watt hps should be here monday or tuesday!!!)

i cant figure out how to put up pictures... ill read around and try to figure it out.

oof..
seeds..
can't find any clones..?
sometimes i pull out my seed stash and think about popping some, but then i think about the whole sexing process and immediately throw them back in their box.
i hate it.
give me your address.
ill send you some clones.

i would but the idea seems risky. plus wouldn't the clones die in the mail?

do you know how to put up pictures?

im doing seed to get started then im going clone, once i find the phenotype i like the best.

OK i finally figured out the pictures ( i just had to re-size them) the first two are from yesterday and the second two are from today.

Im not sure what strain i have but i know its good. it came from some really good stuff i bought a while back and out of three seeds only one sprouted.
the sprout looks really healthy and green, the pictures make it look a little yellow ignore that.
i was also wondering how much i should water it? by that i mean the amount of water not when to water.

just water thoroughly the whole pot. I always water until some comes out of the drain holes at the bottom.

Im doing just that for the moment. but i heard you should be very careful when watering seedling.

yeah brody.. seedlings are touchy.. if you over water, you will get root rot, and if you under water than they dry up and die on you...i like the idea of using the cfl's for seedlings as i had a lot of prob's with mine drying out when i had them under my hps, but i now have a t5 and it works great for seedlings and vegging..
i was told to put a finger in the pot and if it feels wet about an inch or two down, then they don't need a drink, and if at like two inches deep, they are dry, they are thirsty.... you want to keep your temps around 68/ for the low side and 78 for the high end... and you'll wanna keep the humidity kinda high for seedlings and vegetive growing.. i would say as high as like 70% or so would be good.. i got a cheap humidifier at walmart for like $30 and it works killer.. i think it is a vicks brand.. like that nasty stuff you rub on yourself for colds.. it is made so that you can put a vicks pad on it and breathe in the vapors.. i just don't use the vicks pads at i don't think my babies would like that too much, lol..
best of luck, and glad you figured out the pix thing.. nothing stopping you now, lol..

o yeah .. i forgot to mention about your first grow.. it soooooooo wasn't a waste of time.. even if you grew five male plants the first grow and got no bud out of it at all, you still learned how to care for a plant.. and nice job making it to harvest.. that is alot better than alot of people do on their first grow, although most wouldn't admit to it

thanks for the encouragement, the cfl's work great for seeds and early vegging. my first grow was like reading a book i learned a bunch of shit but it took a long time. if this plant turns out female and good i WILL be taking clones from it.

That picture of that cat is sooo fucking funny!!

you like that? its a picture of my cat he is like 14... old man

Looks good, I got all my seeds from the attitude. Definitely a reliable place. I definitely got the stealth packaging (garunteed delivery), no worries. I got a mug. I want to do a seed order bad, but right now I just want to run one strain so it would be pointless. I am looking for commercial space for my garden which would give me many possibilities.....

im getting barney farms G13 haze. looks great and have heard some good stuff about it. im just looking to maximize yield while maintaining quality. by commercial do you mean a seperate building to use for a grow space? or an extra bedroom or something?

my grow room is just a closet. but when my HPS lamp comes im turning it into a sealed grow room, with two chanbers one for vegging the mother and for raising clones. the other for flowering.

Alright its been a few days since i have posted and here's the update. the seedling has grown another quarter inch and the serrated leaves are starting to come out. but i have noticed the serrated leaves are somewhat yellow near the base of the leaf. nothing that's life threatening at the moment but concerning at least.

picture time!!
