Well hello everyone, here is the start of my grow log.
I wanna make a shout out to the person who gave me these seeds, 'what up neighbro' you know who you are :D
I am growing three unfeminized g-13 labs power skunk plants as well as trying for experience purposes to re-veg a random bagseed sativa that I just harvested.
I am using two gallon buckets with a whole drilled in them about two inches up with hydroton in the bottom of the buckets about up to the hole. above the hydroton is a layer of sphagnum moss and above that is sunshine mix.
I have a 400w hps and a small cfl that i am not sure of the wattage. I plan on using Fox farm Grow Big and Tiger Bloom, I also have Hydroguard, superthrive, and Monster Bloom if needed and I plan on using molasses for the later flowering period.
I am growing in my attic so I have attached a duct from my central a/c, heating unit to the box to keep temps where they should be and I vent out of an exhaust duct already in my roof that was for a bathroom. Also I have insulated the box with that thick pink insulation stuff to help temps.
Well here are some pics.

Any comments and suggestions welcome!

:D

The waiting is extremely hard.
I keep a log of everything I do, just a simple notepad document, and looking back I'm like holy crap....all that happened?...

For me today is kind of a slow day. Sick at home hoping for some seeds to pop through the soil and waiting for the second set of real leaves of my seedlings.

From sprout:bigjoint:

Sounds a little slow to me, but I just transplanted in those 3gallon pots, switches to Ocean forest soil and am going to be adding nutes in a week so hopefully they shoot up.

My man is gonna have some top notch buds with that 400 watter..So am I

Dude try mixing some starter fluid up man...uhhh
from
YouTube - Starter Fluid
good stuff
I don't use as much Grow Big or as much superthrive...

I recommend this mixture to anyone one starting off in soil.
