sup guys and gals. well after reading a lot off this site, i decided to do a hydroponic grow! i once started growing in soil but my niece plucked them out
. i read a lot of information on here but im overwhelmed with all the info
. hopefully ya'll can help me out with a couple of questions i have. i didn't want to spend a lot of money just in case things go wrong, i want to make sure i got it down packed before i do it big like a few of you in here
. so lets start off with what i have.
nutrients:
i baught a trio pack off ebay of botanicare "pure blend pro grow & bloom". it also came with a bottle of liquid karma. i also got a bottle of calmag +. from my understanding, these are the best for first time hydro growers and easy to use.
set up:
i baught a bucket of nepolian ice cream which is 1 gal and a half. ate all of it (yummy!) and washed the bucket throughly. i went to walmart and got an air stone, air pump, air tubing.
lights:
i got a pack of 4 6500k cfl's. they are considered daylight spectrum. got extension cord and sockets.
so here are my question's.
1. i germinated my seed on feb 26, its been a week almost and i think something is going wrong
. is this correct? seems small for a hydro grow. i was thinking it would be a lot faster than soil.
2. can i use liquid karma now? it says on the back it helps growth for seedlings.
3. how often do i change the water in the bucket? every week?
4. when putting in the nutes, do i only use one dose a week? the back of the bottles say how much to put but not how often.
well that's about all that i can remember, hopefully ya'll can help me out! any input is appreciated! thanx!
