    Hello fellows
    I've been unsuccessfully trying to grow. heres my log

    Wha did I use as Growing medium:
    Numbers: (by sight)
    Soil 50%
    Perlite 30%
    Bio-humus 20%
    Nitrolime 10%

    I got a wardrobe that is:
    1 feet and 11 inches wide (60 cm)
    1 feet and 3 inches deep (40 cm)
    2 feet and 11 inches high (90 cm)

    That is 2.5 Square Feet
    or 2400 cm2



    Day 1 - 17.5.09
    got seeds, unknown strain
    9 of them germinating – a glass with an inch of water and seeds in little clout

    Day 2 - 18.5.09
    two seeds have already visible roots


    Day 4 - 20.5.09
    4 seeds planted (one had already visible leafs from germination).
    First i mixed up the soil and stuff, then water it, and then planted the seeds
    others remaining in germination

    Day 7 – 23.5.09
    One seed that had visible leafs looks like a swab, i don‘t know what have I done wrong.
    And I also think, the others won't see the finish line as well :/
    But I think I overflow them, what do you think?

    I would be grateful for any help, thank you all:(
     
  2. Yea that soil looks likes its been over watered to me. Just take it easy on the watering, they don't need as much as you think. Other then that things look good. Good luck on the grow bro.
     
  3. I just jumped into it, and didnt know much :)
    Thank you for your view, much appreciated
     
  4. Lol I did the exact same thing, even if we make mistakes we still learn from them and can improve future grows.

    No problem dude always happy to help fellow growers. :bongin:

  6. Looks like they will work alright for vegging. For flowering your going to want something around 3500k.
     
  7. Your soil is wayyyy too wet. Plant the seed about 1/4" down and lightly spray the top level of the soil above the seed. Do not soak it.. simply spray until it is wet. The rest of the soil in the pot should remain dry.
