    Finally got all the kinks worked out in my new cab and I got a new sprout to work with, BCN Diesel, a freebee I got from the tude. Killed both of my northern lights seeds :mad:, so I decided to go with a freebee seed and I got a sprout.

    Used a new method of germ. Got a root tip in paper towels, then instead of burying the seed in the rockwool I just placed the roots in the hole with the casing resting on the top of the cube. Threw a piece of rockwool over the roots too.

    Definitely doing this from now on. Seeds took roots in the rockwool in less than 24 hours...after a full 24 it's standing up and starting to lose it's casing...

    Pull up a chair, this is gonna be a fun one. Single plant DWC grow from seed. Not sure if I'll SCROG. Running GH nutes through the lucas formula. For lights, I'm running 6 daylight 27w CFL's currently, giving me 162w total.

  2. Man I love dwc. I'm on my 3rd grow ever and it just keeps getting better. Keep this thread going till harvest!
     

  3. Definitely my plan. This is my first shot at DWC on my own.
     
  4. Dude check out my last grow in the link in my sig. I got one or two pics up of my current one near the very end of it. I'd definitely scrog it.
     

  5. Funny you said that, I was actually looking through your logs last night, haha. Pretty dope grows if I do say so myself.

    As far as scorgging goes, I'm still not sure. I don't have a whole lot of room to work with and I feel like if I scrog it'll make res changes too difficult. I have a drain valve at the bottom of my bucket but unless I pump the water out it won't all dump without moving the bucket off the ground....if I have a plant in a screen I won't be able to move anything without possibly shocking the plants too much.
     
  6. Also, quick update. Plant is showing it's first sign of green! Got a root showing through the bottom too.

  7. Man I just leave that little bit in the bottom and fill it back up.

    Scrog is exactly what you wanna do in a small space. It'll double or more the amount of bud you get. I'd tie down the top and train it to fit just like you want it, then once you flower it throw up a piece of chicken wire and train the tops through nice and even. You will not regret it. I got 5.5oz off my single plant grow, on my second grow ever.
