Welcome to my first time, hopefully it won't be too painful Location: Northern Spain aka Basque Country.
Grow Site: Outdoor 8th Floor Balcony.
Sunlight: About 4 hours direct sun each day around mid-day.
Seeds: Top44 and Big Bud from Nirvana Seeds.
(Pics taken with my phone, camera is awol.)
Having studied through loads of posts here I decided I could take a shot at my own grow, I realise my main problem is probably going to be the short amount of direct sunlight my plants will be getting but aside from moving the sun or tilting the Earth there´s nothing I can do about that for now.
I bought my seeds online from Nirvana and the arrived about 10 days later in a stealth package. Obviously I can´t show you that but take my word for it, nobody could know it was seeds in the post.
Here´s a couple of pics of the perfect results with these seeds:
Top44
Big Bud
Here´s my seeds naked and full of promise:
I used 20 or so sheets of paper towels soaked in water to germinate 6 seeds, 3 Big Bud and 3 Top 44, I probably left them a bit too long on the towels, the roots were quite long before I transplanted them. Big Bud is at the top, T44 bottom right.
I used Biobizz All-Mix to start off my plants, I bought it in a local grow shop.
I planted the seeds at night whilst playing Brian Eno´s : Another Green World to them. Seeds were placed about an inch into the soil, then watered.
After 2 days I had some good news and some bad.
Good: five seeds were now shoots.
Bad: one of the Top44 seeds couldn´t take it and commited suicide by jumping off the edge of the balcony (actually it was a bit stormy that night).
We had a quick eulogy and moved on...
2 Days in.
Big Bud - 2 Days
Top44 2Days
As it rained for 2 days I haven´t yet watered them since the first night.
So here they are after 4 days:
Day 4 Top44
Day 4 Big Bud
As you may have noticed, I´ve taped up the pots because they are see-thru. According from what I´ve read here, thats nots a good thing.
So thats it for now, I´ll update this as we go along. If anyone could advise me when I should be thinking about fertilisers and transplanting to larger pots, I´d appreciate it.
For ferts, I´ll probably get something from the grow shop, they stock a lot of Biobizz stuff so if anyone knows what to go for, please let me know.
