    1x UFO #1 LA woman freebie from Attitude- Feminized

    -8 27w 6500k cfls
    -6" induct exhaust fan
    -Pulley light bar setup
    -And some turbo looking intake fan i found in my shed that works really well.

  5. Thanks man.



    Hopefully tomorrow the northern lights will sprout. Im hoping to see some growth in the other sprouts too.
     
  6. :wave: yea im branching out lol
     
  7. just one thing to bear in mind, dont get to discuraged if they seem like their growing bit slow the first week or 2 as their just growing a root system under the soil,
    just a heads up as alot of new growers worrie when their seedlings dont seem to grow much at first lol
     

  8. Yea Ill keep that in mind, but i mean within the past 6 hours ive already seen a bit of growth and snapped some shots.

    oh yea by all means they change hourly! just sometimes they seem to stay the same as they develop a root system

    the LA woman should be good alot of people seem to have the seeds at the mo

  12. hey, looks like their doing well!

    on a side note do you have any perlite in your soil? i know you said it does but it dont look like it, could prob use some more its really helpfully for the roots & airation in the soil plus drainage
     
  13. It said on the bag that theres a little but I plan on adding 4:1 soil: perlite when i transfer to the bigger pots. I figured they would be fine until then.
     
  14. yea they should be fine untill you transplant, but just keep an eye on that soil as it wont dry out so quick & you dont want to keep it too wet
     
  15. Yea i noticed that its been staying very wet. Should i be okay to transplant from my party cups right to 12" pots. I just figured it would be easier than transplanting a ton of times.
     
  16. yea they can go from party cups their large pots, its just recommended to start them in a small pots so they grow a nice root ball then that grows out when transplanted,
     
  17. Gotcha. Maybe Ill see if i can find some smaller pots around. Or some 2 liter bottles.
     
  18. Just received my Fox Farm nutes from Discount-Hydro. The mylar is still on back order so hopefully that wont be to much longer.

    For nutes i just got FF Grow big, which ill start using in about 2-3 weeks. Ill be buying Big bloom when I get closer to flowering. I noticed that FF has 2 flowering nutes should I get both?
