InNvBoarders indoor shack grow!

Ok so i came up on some purlpe shack beans , and now its grow time! I am growing under a 400 hps in a box 4x4X20" I will be using Fox farm ocean forest mixed with a organic soil they have in the local shop. I have had success with it in the past. I will mix 50/50 soil with perilite and a little diolomite lime. This is my first grow with any good seeds, the other grows i have done were with some bag seeds(not a good strain) so i am really looking foward to seeing those big fat colas! Anyways i am realitvily new at growing so i will doccument my grow step by step, Any and all info is appreciated. I get my camera later today so i will post some pictures later today or tomorrow. Right on all gotta go put some seeds in water!

Heres some pics of the old crop just came out yesterday

2 seeds cracked!

Alright its about time to get started. I looked at the seeds im greminating and Yeah two have cracked. I am going to put them into dirt tonight hopefully i will have some little ladies in a few days. The seeds i put in dirt havent poped up yet but i figure tomorrow or the next day i hope.
 
How long do you let the roots poke out of the shell before you put em into the dirt? Mine are only half a inch or so, I put em in the dirty root straight down.
 
Day 1!!!!!!

Day 1!!!!!!

Hey Maj i was thinking about running all the seedlings for 24 hrs a day for 5 days after sprouting to givem a good start. What do you think will it hurt them?

congrats on the sprout :woohoo: , when the beans where given to me 30 was planted 22 sprouted 19 survived, 1 was mutant from the start. the mutant went outside then dog laid on it leaving me 18 of the 22 that sprouted. all 18 where female guess good grow conditations pay off lol. of them 10 went into the cab 1 bent over to much so was removed and became a mother plant for 6 months. the other 7 where placed outside in very early june but temps where in 90's by then and all died. of the 10 placed in the cab under a screen i kept the 22 best lookn cuts for clones, 10 rooted. 1 of them 10 took 6 wks and is my 1st bonsai mum 1 of 2 sugar shack bonsai mum's i have to take cuttings from weekly.


24 hrs a day shouldnt hurt them, i personally give them 18 on 6 off from sprout to flower, i find the night time to give a nice strong rootmass.
you'll find some ppl prefer 24 hrs day some like myself 18 hrs day lighting for veg. trust me once ive transplanted up the 1st time my plants grow crazy fast i'll raise the cfl lighting 2-3 inchs each day. this is to keep lighting 3 inchs above plants tops, Mr N can tell ya he's amased every time he comes over lol. but again congrats on the sugar shack sprouts heres a good read so you can choose a good mother plant of the shack and not loose the genitics.

Sprout number two!!!!

Right on another sprout poped up today. Three of the beans i germinated in the wet paper towell. Once they cracked i ploped em into the dirt. The other two i put straight into the dirt. My first sprout was from the beans i put straight into the dirt. Now this one is from the ones i germed, so im hoping ill have all of them or at least one more by tomorrow or the next day.

Well i wasnt sure if this last one was gonna pop up but I just got up and there it is. So all three of the beans i put into the paper towell have now sprouted. Only one of the two that went straight into the dirt have popped up im starting to think its not going to, but it can have a few more days. I took a couple pics so check it out!

My new sprout

The first sprout opening up

Inside the garden
 
Check out my dog, she got into a batch of canna-cookies that i burned. Im not quite sure hom many she ate but shes wabbling all over the house its hillarious! Really blew her mind man!
 
Plants doin a little funky?

Plants doin a little funky?

So heres the deal. My first plant that sprouted went off in a couple of days but then the bottom leaves started to wilt a bit(will have a pic today damn batteries are dead) the top leaves still look great but the two bottom leaves look like shit. I do have four sprouts the second two that sprouted on the same day i might add, one is doing awesome, it looks great! The other one I let a buddy top, he has grown in the past. It is starting to grow new sprouts from were it was stopped, but the bottom leaves are starting to wilt just like on the first sprout. I dont know if it cause im doing somthing wrong or cause it was topped and its in shock? My last sprout is not growing at all, it sprouted just like the others, but then it just stopped i just dont get it. I will take some pics as soon as poss Whats going on?

how often are ya watering ?? and how much


pls do your self a favor dont let any1 do anything to your garden ppl say ive growen in the past right on i'll tell them. but no ya aint doing your idea personally i wouldnt top a plant untill 3-4 sets of leaves are out. if your lookn for bushy plants in my gallery you'll find two tutorials 1 is LST by big_buddah other is FIM both are around pg 10 of my gallery :). trust me them 2 methods LST/FIM conbined will produce some of the bushiest plants you've ever seen inside
 
Im having trouble with a couple of my little sprouts. The first sprout its doing great on the top three sets, but the bottom set is starting to wilt. One of the other sprouts is also starting to wilt but it was topped so i dont know if that has anything to do with it. One of them is going good looking great, and the last one is not growing at all it is still a tiny sprout. It just dosent grow i dont know what is going on. I will have pics later today!

dont give up on the runt lol this burnt runt

turned into the grape krush in my cab now lol

whats your cabs lights off temps ??? slow growth could be due to colder temps, maybe take on next watering add 1tsp er gal water peroxide like for cuts :). this will bring a higher oxygen content to the rootzone could help maybe
