first grow .. i gonna need you guys

badboybabyface · Jan 27, 2008

ok...here it is... 2 seeds out of 4 have shown tales in the paper towel..i have put them in the dirt today..the root protruded from the seed about 2 to 3 centimeters(closer to 3)..put about a half inch in the dirt and watered thouroghly under 4 23 watt/1600 lumen CFL's in a closet with white garbage bags tightly taped to the walls for maximum lighting....first question..what is your estimate timing for days i will go till sprouts show..???

IntheCloset46 · Jan 27, 2008

couple days...keep the lights close

badboybabyface · Jan 27, 2008

couple days wit lights close..cool man thanks..any other opinions??

IntheCloset46 · Jan 27, 2008

nah not to much to do at this stage..just waitin.. but i never heard of the trash bags for walls before..you might wanna go to mylar at some point..if ya want

mal_crane · Jan 27, 2008

Yeah man the only thing I can say is get rid of the trash bags. Either paint the walls flat white or get yourself some mylar. Both are cheap. No tin foil either unless you want your plants burned later on.

DAY 2: no sprouts...six seeds still germing..1 cracked, im gonna wait till the root really gets goin b4 planting this one..got 4 in a paper towel and 2 in a glass of water(lil experiment to see which works faster....no sprouts no pics..srry..but as soon as she pokes up you all will see her develope(if you decide to folow the thread)..still very booooring at this point..just a waiting game..last time i was poking in the dirt it fucked everything up..so now i water and leave..oh and its more like day 1 1/2 on the planted seeds..how much longer man??patience is a virtue i dont have....talk to me people of riu.

Be careful with the watering. You want the soil to just be moist.

badboybabyface · Jan 29, 2008

wbinwv · Jan 29, 2008

Hey dude, im here to answer you questions, first off the wardrobe your using looks pretty big, thought about investing and 250watt hps they are about £100 with cheap dutch shiney relfector, but would do well in a closet tht size, and you pots have way too little soil in them considering the size of your wardrobe, for any more seedlings you are gonna sprout, FIll the container to the top, also with pots that wide but so little filled it will an annoyig job transplanting them i think, but apart form that all looks well.
Jolly, hope it helps

TheJollyBrother · Jan 31, 2008

the pots i mentioneed are the big white square ones btw.

badboybabyface · Jan 31, 2008
