Starting this journal for anyone that wants to follow along, but more importantly; so that I can harvest tips.
Its my first grow. Had 10 seeds, germinated 1, this it her below.
Im on day 21. Sorry for the late post.
For the record, I put the seed in tap water for 18 hours, (didn't air the water to get rid of clorene,)
After that just paper toweled it for 4 days until it had a 1 inch sprout.
The dirt has no neuts, just a bag of soil.
Put it about 3/4 of an inch below soil level. Took 3 days to sprout up. Was getting worried but she showed up lol.
Im using a 5 gallon pale. Brand new.
I have a 400W MH light over it. Will switch to hps once it stops vegging.
I have no fan yet, because the giant bag of dirt didn't fill the bucket enough so its below the rim still after 3 weeks. My bad.
I water it too frequently I think. The soil always looks moist so Im backing off the water to let its dry a bit more. Its been about a 1/2 Liter a day...ish. (0.12 gallons)
But there is a lot of dirt.
Seems happy enough. Nodes are a little spaced....guessing the damn light is too high. Might let it grow towards it until it hits about 20cm away. ( 8 inches.)
Is that too close?
I gave it a 1/8th dose of 15,5,5 today with her 1/2 litre of water. ( mixed at 1L but didnt use a full Liter)
