hello everyone i have started my first grow ever with [FONT=arial,sans-serif][SIZE=-1]aurora[/SIZE][/FONT] fem seeds!

im sure i will run into a few problems..

so.. my baby plant has only just come out of the soil and looks green so far..
no funny colours or anything yet!
i have decided to start with two plant as it seems silly to start with all 10 and lose them because im inexperienced at growing..

so far i have been light misting the top soil eveytime five or so hours unless im asleep..
im going to keep my lights on 24/7
veg for about a month and then flower..
you can just make out the tip of the plant in the pics..
my soil is 3 parts...at the bottom i have wood chippings to help drainage in the middle i have seedling/cutting soil and on top more chippings!!
if anyone would like to give me some pointers on anything then please do!! your more than welcome to post on this page:-o

some people say veg on 24hours light might make your babies male. i've read that 14/10 is good for female, but i wouldn't start my babies on that, i'd start at maybe 24 for a week then switch to 18/6 then slide it slowly to 14/10

yea im gona keep em on 24/7 for about a week n a half so they dont reach for the light to much then swap to 18/6 for the last few weeks then put them in flower...

ello m8, dont soak then to much, dont fuss them to much, use a fan blowing on them to strengthen plants, keep light as close as poss,put more in for mistakes and if no mistakes pick the best to keep, seeds dont cost much really.will b watching til the end.

perlite is white granuals sold in bags in garden stores to mix with compost to make drain easy, natural silicon i think. use it 50-50 ish.

not sure about the wood chippings but need to let them get some roots on them, disturbing them now is not such a good idea.
