Walk's First Grow - Northern Lights - Dr. Kripling - CFL Veg - HPS Flower - Coco

Thanks guys! I know Subnoise..I'm like wtf..popped in two days when planted in 3 gallons..popped four seeds in the ground, tried to micromanage everything even better, and they won't come out!

Appreciate the words of encouragement, Stealth!

A little worried I may of had too much heat on the seedlings on the day they were in the napkin..Had heating pad on high/med in a 75-80 degree room.
 
That sucks you haven't seen the new ones sprout yet. Did you do anything different other than the heat pad? I always start mine in towels for everything. Sometimes I'll use the peat pellets for like the smaller shoots and stuff. I always seem to have better luck starting them in towels then moving to soil. Not sure if that helps or not, but that's all I got brother!! Keep it going though, you seem to be on the right track.
 
Def killed those seedlings - dug up one, saw it was still in the exact place as I moved them from paper plate, dug another..same, repeat until finish. They had about 1/4 inch taproots and were in stasis..

My plants are so short and bushy..like seven-eight nodes on two of them in under four inches..Almost thinking too bushy, but not sure what to do about that - So much bush, so little stem, I can't even bend them over & LST

Too bad about the seeds, hit and miss sometimes. The other plants are looking good though

Thanks for the condolences ;). I planted four more Sunday (germ in water 24 hrs, planted in coco), two Incredible Bulk (Autofem) and two freebie Afghans. One of each has sprouted, and I can see the seed through the soil on a third, and on the fourth I can see the root kinda poking up like its turning around.. but at least I can get a few more growing!
 
Okay..Got all four plants to sprout, then ferret ripped them out (again, same one, he hates me. he fried my gaming PC two months ago by knocking a Gatorade onto it). Replanted, seeing growth from all four STILL. Have not added any nutes, just giving it PH water until i see some more recovery and some leaves, then I will begin nuting.

I have done the first part of mainlining on two plants, leaving the third as is - it has some orange rust on a leaf, not sure what it is..going to do some research and upload a pic in a bit.
 
Hey guys..Hope ya'll didn't forget about me! Was doing a bunch of changes here and there.. So far, haven't had any real major issues yet. Had some minor mag deficiency but increased calmag plus to solve. Broke a stem when I was LSTing my smallest plant, letting it recovery (why it is in the small pot)

Just transplanted today into 5 Gal Fabric pots. Have the seedlings in the middle for now. Using a tote lid for a drain tray and a laundry basket thingy for a rack/fan holders. I swapped lighting to a 600W and attached air cooling. This weekend i'll fiddle with my carbon filter, plants are starting to smell. These guys are showing their pistols with two hairs coming out, that showed up a few days ago. I will probably just grow these NL out until the other seedlings catch up, and swap them all to flower at the same time.

Also, I am setting up a few totes for a veg "room" with the other cfls. Looking like I'm going to use four total totes, one ontop of the other x2, with PC fans extracting. My idea currently is to plant seedlings about one week before I swap to flower, and let them veg under CFLs untill I harvest from the closet. Then, depending on size, I can put them under a 600W for 1-3 weeks if needed, if not, can directly go to flower.

Transplanted two of the (former) seedlings into a 3 gallon smart pot, watered them. They grew up to their sixth node, topped them down to right above the third. Stripped all growth below third note and LST'd the new growth.

Have some Calcium deficiency on one of the smaller plants, but I think its been handled - Just gave it 3 ml extra Calmag. Need to top the babies twice more - Once tomorrow, once in around four to six days. Currently doing some heavy LST.

Doing my best to keep my canopy even. I should swap to flower in two weeks or so, hopefully the plants on the booster seats will grow and match up to the Northern Lights that are a month older.
 
Grow room cleanup day! Try to get in there every 2-3 weeks and clean it up nice.

Took apart all the fans, removed dust. Dusted walls and sides. Pulled plants out to get some looks at them and do some rearranging for a (hopefully) improve interaction ability. Was having difficulties getting around my racks to water the stuff in the back.

Alphas stalk, looking pretty robust.

Empty, clean grow room. I meant to take a photo of how dirty it was, but alas, forgot.
