My first grow using LED and MH/HPS

Hey, everyone. I just wanted to thank the people who calmed my nerves about germinating. I soaked 4 seeds in a cup of water for about 2 days and then transferred them into damp tissue on a plate. All four seeds cracked open. I thought one wouldn't, but it cracked sometime between last night and this morning.

I have 1 Bubblelicious seed and 3 mystery seeds. I originally intended to do 3 bubblelicious and 1 mystery, but I was afraid of screwing up the germination and wasting the bubble seeds. I figure this is my first grow, so I should practice more with the freebies from Nirvana.

Just transferred all four into the 97 cent walmart pots with some organic soil (also from wallyworld). I plan to put them in Fox Farm's ocean once it ships to my housebin a few weeks. I hope this soil is okay for the initial sprouting and growth.

Once they sprout, I plan to use my LED 96x3. I am waiting for the MH/HPS and tent to ship in, so....plan is to use LED and MH for vegging, the HPS and LED for blooming.

Now I just have to wait for them to sprout. Lol

 

Oh, but like a moron, I put the seeds into the pots and didn't label the bubblelicious so now I will have no idea what plant is what, unless the three mystery seeds end up Sativa. Blonde moment or what? Haha

 

No, just a regular seed.

 

4 days later after planting. One picture is from last night, and the other this morning. All four have sprouted up. I have my LED sitting over them and they seem to love it.

I got almost everything shipped in, minus my tent and MH/HPS. Fox farm's soil came in yesterday, but I don't intend on transplanting them to that soil until they are 3 weeks into growth. They will go straight into 5 gallon pots. Is that a good idea?

Hopefully, the organic soil they are in works until then.

 

Yeah, I probably won't give them any nutrients until I transplant them. I have heard some people even wait until flowering to give nutrients. Do you think I will need to before then with the fox farm's ocean soil? Or does it depend on the plant?

 

No, just a normal seed
The other three are mystery seeds.

 

I have a question pertaining to watering. Is it best to let the soil get completely dry before or water when it is starting to dry. I don't want to over or under water. I water them last night, because I stuck my finger an inch into the soil and it felt a little dry to me.

 

And thank you for all of the replies. I am following all of your grows! I enjoy watching and reading all of y'all's progress.

 

Loki, I totally want to buy some auto seeds next time I order! Seems fun!
