1 Mid-grade bagseed. 1 Lemon Kush.
Grow space: A simple 2.5ft x 2ft cardboard box which will soon be lined with mylar.
Lights: 4 x 26wt 6500k CLF'S [18/6]. Lights are currently 3 inches away from foliage. I will be adding one or two more on each side and switching to 2700k's around flowering time.
Soil: A mix of 50% Miracle Grow sphagnum peat moss, 40% MG perlite and 10% MG Organic Blood Meal.
Temp: 77 with lights on, 60 with lights off.
Humidity: 70 with lights on, 60 with lights off.
Soil PH: 6.0-6.3ish
Watering: Currently watering about once every 3 days. I will be purchasing a water gauge.
Fan: Small desk fan is on when the lights are on only, otherwise it gets below 60 degrees. Being that it is a small space, the door is open and the fan is blowing in from outside the box.
Seeds were germinated in paper towels, then planted in jiffy peat pellets. I kept them in the pellets for two days, after sprouting.
The seeds were then transfered into the party cups containing the soil mix mentioned above.
My concerns:
1. Too low of a temp when lights are off.
2. The soil mix seemed to make them curl a bit, im guessing the blood meal was too much [no going back now]. Though they are both producing new leaves daily.
3. Node spacing is very tiny on the bagseed and longer on the LKush. Making light distance a pain. [not really a concern]
Having failed in the past i am pretty determined to make this one work.
Sorry about the bad picture quality. Macbook cameras are not the best. The pictures are from day 10 [today] in the party cups.
Any thoughts/comments/concerns/criticisms would be fantastic.
