put 9 seeds in rockwool 4 days ago, watered the rockwool and covered with a humidity dome (upside down plastic container). once a day i remove the dome for 15-20 minutes and water the rockwool cubes. after seeing the first sprout i don't replace the dome but continue to water the rockwool daily. 24/7 fluorescents 2 1/2 ft above cubes until sprouts show then 2" - 4" above the sprouts.

today all have started growing, 6 have sprouted and are showing their first leaves. (100% germination yay!)

i have a very limited grow space (4' width x 6' length x 3' height). My previous grow of 6 plants started to smell up my whole house after a couple weeks of 12/12 lighting. Can't repeat that so I'm planning to transplant rockwool starter cubes into soil in 3 gal grow bags and veg them indoors as fast as i can to 12" - 18" them put them outside to flower. we're reasonably warm into December where I live usually (first frost in late November or early December) so I'm hoping it won't be cold enough to slow flowering significantly. guess we'll see. Depending on the weather I might be looking for good mothers for next year instead

3 Northern Lights, 3 Bubblegum and 3 White Widow

Don't know how I really feel about pictures, but I might post some. guess we'll see about that too
