Sup guys and girls, this is my first journal as well as my first real grow with name brand seeds.i picked these seeds up from attitude seedbank in august.
Skunk #1 limited edition - sensi seeds
Raw diesel - g13 labs
Vanilla kush - Barney's farm

room info - i bought a 18in x 18in x 24in storage box from homedepot. $1.37
Bathroom fan from homedepot.$15
4 cfl 23 watt 2700k at homedepot.$7
i bought a Turkey pan at the dollar store for a reflector-$1
Flat white spray paint at homedepot.$3
i had a portable fan already but u can get one of these for $10 at homedepot.
In total i spent $37 on this setup.temps range from 76-88 24/7.

ok so preety much what i did was spray the inside walls really good with flat white paint.I cut a opening at the top of the box so that i can sit a bathroom fan on it sucking the hott air out.i taped it on there really good and sealed it so that i have no leaks.i also used the box my macbook came in so i can throw on top of the bathroom fan to make it look more stealth and so if anyone sees it the just dont see a bathfan on top of a box(real suspicious).


I pierced a whole threw the macbook box and the homedepot box so i can run my wires safelly in one spot and not having a bunch of wires coming from everywhere.This is a ghetto ass grow op, but im going to keep it neat.


I made some slits in the box and pulled back a door.i added a portable fan to help push around some air,+ cut ruler sized passive intake's at the bottom of all sides of the box except for the side of the door.so this is what you see.



the light was booming out of the passive intake's so imade these ghetto vents for it to block the light but still get air inside the box.works preety well.


these reflect the light really well.
 
It looks good but why a cardboard box.I mean you can use it for now but i hope you can get something more safer.Would hate to hear it caught on fire.

i used the soaking/paper towel method but it didnt work out for me.so i just droped them into a soaked rockwool cube ph'd at 5.5 - 6. in 2days they sprouted. i started the vanilla kush yesterday so she should be up soon.

humidity dome.$5 at the local hydro store.

Skunk #1 .

the cotyldons made a heart.Preety cool

here she is as of today. she looks sad.mayb you guys can tell me whats going on with her.my guess is overwatering.but its hard to keep the cube moist.without drying out as i cant be misting it every couple of hours.


Raw Diesel


here she is as of today.
 
Looks overwatered.I think you are going to just mist them when the cubes are getting dry because it looks like they are on the way out.

they dry out over night,but ive been trying not to get the cube dry cuz the seedling feel over from the cube being dry already.
the diesel is fine. today is day 2 for the diesel.im going to keep a tight watering schedule from now on.
how do i keep them moist over night? 8 hours

Skunk #1 seems to be dieng idk whats wrong with her yet.her leaves turned from pale-ish gray to yellow and are still droopy.


Raw Diesel is healthy.but stretching.what should i do about this? i have her 3 inches away from my cfls bulbs.


Vanillakush sprouted today but i made a mistake and it came out of the cube and was exsposed to air,light w.e else it could be exsposed to.hope she survives.it would really suck ballz.

update:ok so the skunk died.I can notice the different phenotypes already on both of the plants.the diesel has shorter/thicker leaves, and the kush has longer/thiner leaves.the roots on the diesel are shooting out all around the party cups they are in.everything is looking good so far other then the skunk being dead.

Raw diesel is looking very healthy.this plant is 1 week/3 days old.



the kush is 3 days younger then the diesel.this plant is 1 week old.
