Hey there all you movers & shakers!!!

I actually started a grow journal on paper in a notebook, so I wanted to switch to online to get some tips & pointers from everyone! My babies are 3 weeks, 3 days old today.

Seeds were bought online from the UK & came really fast! Only took a week or two to get them in the mail.

11/17/16 - Germination- Soaked 24-36 hours in tap water until white tap root was showing.

11/18/16 - 8:00 PM. Planted root down in jiffy pellets & put in a black tray. Put it under a CFL grow light until they sprouted. Watered from bottom. Kept an heater close by & a fan on lightly to grow stem strength. Kept light on 24/7. Kept temps "spring like". There was a little white fuzz growing on top of one of the pods. Scrapped it off with tweezers.

11/22/16 - Seedlings - 3 out of 6 spouted. However, 1 pod sprouted 2 from same pod & 1 pod was a blank. Lesson #1 learned... Don't get high before planting!!!! I transplanted the pod with 2 seedlings into a separate pod.

11/24/16 - Seedlings 6 out of 6 are up!

11/26/16 - Small business Sat. 20% off at 2 local hydroponics stores. Score!!!! Plus free advice.

11/28/16 bought my lights on Amazon. All seedling are about an inch tall, except the one I transplanted. I see yellow/ brown spots on 2 of the leaves on plant #6. Started watering with PH balanced water.

11/30/16 - picked up pod & I see white roots poking out, where are my lights???!!!!

12/01/16- lights came. Transplanted 2 into my own home-made DWC bucket system into net pots & hydroton. Used nutes half strength of what bottle says to use. Smallest plant only half the size of a toothpick. I wasn't sure to keep them in their pods or to take out & transplant without pod. I took one out & left 1 in.

12/02/16 - 2AM #2 lesson learned. Don't start setup late at night. If you run into problems, you will be up all night!

12/03/16. - babes are droopy. Hoping it's transplant shock.

12/04/16 - the one I planted without pod is still droopy & yellowing. The one in it's pod still is droopy still but better.

12/05/16 - Transplanted 3 for a total of 5 into my DWC bucket system. The 6th plant was not viable for transplant. 5 out of 6, here we go! Seem less droopy. I check PH every other day. Keeps steady (apple juice yellow) between 5.7-5.9. I need a PH Pen....

12/11/16 - lights from 24/7 to 18/6. All except 1 have white roots coming out the bottom of the net pots. Top feeding until I see roots.

12/12/16 - today. All 5 babies doing well. Changed nutes on 3 last night, 2 tonight. Very dark green leaves. A few starting their 5th leaves.
