Hey L33t, thanks for the response. After the seeds germinated I placed them in Rapid Rooters up until 4 days ago. It was 4 days ago that they were transplanted into my soiless medium (Promix HP) I will admit they are overwatered but I want to make sure they have too much instead of not enough until more rooting has developed.
Actually I am not too concerned about the plants in my gallery, it's the 2 seedlings that I didn't post. I promise the plants shown will be dialed in by the end of next week.
The details about my grow are a long story. Here it goes. I had 2 1000 watters, and one 600 watter along with CO2 injection. Well two weeks ago my 4.5 yr old Sunsystems 1000 watter quit on me. I called them, asked about their warranty and they said it was covered. They sent me some shipping information, I brought it too FedX and it was shipped out to be repaired in Tenessee. It has been repaired but I have yet to receive it back. I called their office and they said was sent out on Friday. It should be in by the end of the week. The day after that my homemade 1000 watter quit on me. I took it to the local hydro shop and he said it couldn't be repaired and wanted $200.00 for a bare bones hps ballast kit. I knew they were trying to rip me off since I've seen them on the net for $100.00, so I declined the repair. I then decided that I wanted more coverage and a little savings on the electrical bill, so I purchased a 400 watt hps system w/cool tube reflector. The new CMH bulb has also caught my eye so I ordered one but have yet to receive it. It should be here by Tuesday. I switched the reflector that was hooked up to the home made 1000watter and wired it to my 600 watt ballast. That 600 watt hps bulb was 3 or 4 years old and not very brilliant so I ordered a new one over the net, and it too should also be here by the middle of the week.
Currently, 4 weeks flowering, I have 1 Sweet Blue, 2 Mountain high seeds freebies, and 1 MK x SK under my 600 watter, and 1 MK x SK and 2 High Ends under the 400 watter.
Last week I germed a pack of Swiss Bliss that I got at the beginning of Jan and they went 0 for 10, so I ordered the Mango Haze. I germed 6 of them and since it looks like only 4 will survive I decided to try the Skunkman freebies that I received with the MH. So far 3 out of 5 Thai Haze x Skunk have germed.
For ferts, I am just finishing up my 3 part Advanced Nutrients with Carboload and Big Bud. I will be switching to Flora Nova Bloom using the Lucas formula for the Mango Haze. Thus far they have yet to be fertilized.
Because all my lights arent up and running my temps are running a little cool. Daytime 70 degrees f and 60 degrees f night. I have an oscillating fan blowing 24/7 on the plants. Humidity is at 50%.
Believe it or not, I am not a rookie grower, I have just had some real bad luck as of late. I could go on and on more than I already have but will spare you the boredom.
All my claims will be substantiated with pics in the weeks to come. Pull up a chair and come along for the ride. I promise it will be quite a journey.
Stay tuned,
Fiskars
p.s. I have some more pics of my grow posted over at IC if you would like to view them.
