first grow!

[c1scot]

after lots of research and reading on this site,i believe i am ready to start my grow.i germinated 6 bagseeds out of some decent midi's two days ago, and they are ready to go in there planters.i cant believe how quickly the tap roots popped out.
plan on doing a closet grow.ill be posting some pics as i go.any addvice is welcomed.going to pick up a mh and hps setup tonight.

High there, MH+HPS setups are great. I would chop body parts off for MH in my vegging area! Only advice I can give if you have already done lots of reading is to just see how you go and good luck!

thanx.....hope all goes well.....was thinking of trying lst on my grow.looks simple enough,and seems to really increase yields.not to mention save on a little space!

[c1scot]

at last a update,and a few pics. its been just over two weeks since i put my sprouted beans into their soil.(mg organic)not my first choice,but what was available.luckily,they seem to be doing ok.the first pick was the first one to break the soil,and it seemed to happen over night!(i know the dates are wrong.forgot to set it before i took the pics.lol

the next two are a week behind,but looking equally impressive to me.

last but not least, a couple more that are just about 5 days out of the soil.also looking strong so far.by the way,these are all bagseed.....didnt see spending a bunch of money on some expensive seeds for my first grow.

my setup..i got a 175watt mh setup from a friend for free.i am using those emergency blankets for reflection..paid under a dollar a piece for them at wal-mart. and until i transfer them to their final pots, i just used some old coffee containers and a milk jug to star them in.oh, and $5 for my soil......for a grand total of about $10 to start off with.cant beat it! love to hear some comments,opinions, and anything that might help out along the way!

[c1scot]

pic update......not really any diff. but changed the date on the cam. lol besides,cant have too many pics!

Looking good....You should ask a mod.to move itover to the grow journals so it doesnt get lost over here

FYI your gona have fun getting those ones out of the coffee containers... probably gona need to cut them out.

[c1scot]

thanx man.....as far as the containers,your exactly right.i was just thinking about that earlier this evening.guess i can chalk that up to a learning experience,and what not to use next time!

Damn, and only what, 3 and a half weeks since they sprouted? Wow, keep up the work man, you're on your way to free pot!

[djrighthooks]

lol... I used all sorts of things when I started my first seeds. Check out my journal and see

[c1scot]

wow....great first grow newgrow. i can only hope mine does as well.as with most first attempts,i'm sure there are a few things i can improve on as i go.
john's....this thurs. will make week three from sprout for the biggest one in the clear container.i couldn't be happier for the way it has been growing,and with so little maintenance.i water it every few days, or if the soil feels dry down an inch or so.probably will start some kind of nutes on it in the next week .........since it's looking as good as it is, i really don't want to fus with it too much.the old"if it ain't broken don't fix it"
