hello everyone, this is my first grow and i'm very excited. i've been browsing on tons of forums for weeks reading grow logs and gathering as much knowledge as possible. i'm going to try to work with what i have at the moment, i would appreciate any comments or ideas. =)
my setup is:
grow cab
1.5 ft length, 3 ft width, 2.5 ft high
all walls lined with mylar except the top.
for now i have one four inch computer fan as an exaust and a computer fan inside just to blow air around till i can drill an intake hole for it. they are on a 7v ac/dc adapter but i plan on wiring them to a 12v during flowering.
i have a 42w white cfl and a 30w red spectrum cfl at the moment that i'll use for the first week or two then i'll have to go out and possibly buy a 125w one from the hydro shop? i was planning on using only cfls for this grow because i don't think the computer fans will be able to keep it cool in there with an hps.
i'm using foxfarm ocean forest soil, and i'm really not sure what i'm going to do about a nute regimen right now.
i was thinking fish emulsion for the later weeks of veg? i'm aware it smells horrid, so i was thinking about going with the fox farm line of nutes and following the feeding schedule on their site, although that would be very pricey. any reccomendations on nutes?
i was thinking about buying two 125w cfls for the flowering and place all my other ones around and under the plant for higher yield.
since this is my first grow, i thought it would be smart to use a few bagseeds instead of buying premium ones online. we'll see how this goes, from what i hear growing is very addictive.
the grow:
i'm thinking only two plants for this grow,
i've already started germinating five bag seeds, all from the same bag, in moist paper towels zipped in a zip-lock.
after they germinate i plan to put them in beer cups with ocean forest soil and water them as needed until the middle of the second week or maybe the third then move them to pots. i still need to decide on nutes and a feeding schedule.
what would be the soonest possible way to find out which plants are girls?
any comments are welcome!
pictures soon!
one love,
