hey everyone!!! some of you know me.and some of you dont. one week ago i started my second indoor grow. built a 3x3x6 feet box in a cornor of a bedroom. running 400 WATT light,
here is what it looks like now

and sorry they are sideways. didn't realize to after upload
and you see 2 cfl bulbs hanging over the baby. i am tiring to keep the plant from stretching. because at the moment i have the MH bulb way to high.

Yes, MH are pretty hot for a seedling. Green mojo for a great grow.

Good to see you found your way over bbr.

It is a good idea to start your seedlings off with fluoros--the MH do put off some heat.

LOL--I was going to tease you about the sideways pics--something like "How do you get your pots to stay sideways", but you pre-empted that.

I'm looking forward to being able to follow your grow.

Green Energy coming your way. Getter done my friend.

best of luck...

my thumbnails look sideways. its an i phone flaw.. but we have condensation!!! love it!!!

I would remove the plastic from the cups. Here is a link to a germination guide that I like. http://www.mandalaseeds.com/Guides/Germination-Guide

What she said^ ^^^^ Read that mandala germination... Makes it easy and makes sense. indoor mojo for you!

at the moment i am using a 4200k mh bulb. yesterday i ordered a 6500k. that should make my plants happy. still waiting for other babies to be born.
and i have a DWC question. how long can the plant live without the oxygenated water? i ask because we have had 2 power outages, even tho they where short lived and the roots are not in water yet, it got me to thinking about it,

I don't get too worried unless it is 1/2 a day or so. My power was out for about 4 hours yesterday, but IMO, that wasn't long enough to warrant starting the generator. However, if the plants are small and the roots are not in the water, it is a good idea to top water until the power comes back on.

got a root out the net pot now, its just tipping the water. i will post pics asap. after all. it is valentines day!!

6500k bulb installed, and have roots in the water!!!!!!!!!!

best of mojo friend

just put my baby in a new bucket with a nute solution. 10 days hold, 1/2 strength. was in 1/4 strength. growing so fast!!! i love DWC!!!!!

whats going on with this? its over an inch long, and half in high at center. both ends go straight down.

You can take a pencil and try to gently lift it up and see which end is up. Then bury it back deep the right way... good luck with the surgery.

head was deeper than tap root. i tried to correct it.

it looks as it survived the trama. it looks more green and is raising up. fingers crossed

I thought you were growing DWC.....what medium have you got those babies planted in?

In post 18 you said you were feeding these 1/2 strength nutes? They do not need or want nutes until they are 2-3 weeks old and then start out at about 1/4 and leave it that way for a week or so. What is your pH? Did you check ppms? There really is a lot of difference between growing in soil and using bubble buckets.
