Honestly? Mainly just don't feel like doing one.
Seems like anymore they're just advertisements for this product or that breeder etc etc. That's cool and all, but for a guy like me, It's actually kind of a turnoff when it comes to that product or breeder. I mean, If 3/4 of the shit was actually affordable for a broke ass like me, Then I'm sure I'd have a different take on it. It's cool they can show that their $1500 lighting system can get a pound a plant, While using kosher obtained organic bat shit and $1000 worth of nutes, But to me that shit's for the birds. Lemme see what you can do with a $100 chinese led, $55 bag of dry nutes, and a 10lb block of coco.
Sorry.. Not trying to be a prick when I typed that.... Just how it came out.

Lol I get it man.

That's kind of why I'm doing my journal to see what can be done on a budget. I've probably spent only about $325 total including 32 seeds, my original budget was $250 for items so unfortunately I went past that, but if I didn't buy some of the things I initially bought to start in a bucket I'd be right around there.

I'm using a coco mix with $80 light and $40 tent. My nutes were a free sample which seem it's going to last me at least a few grows at the current rate. Once I need new nutes, I'm likely going to go with the same company as they seem to be producing ok results so far and you can get 9900g for $55.

That's the $55 bag I was talking about haha
That's what I'm using. I pretty much named off everything I'm using now, minus the $80 4x4x7 tent, and 4" fan and filter... Bunch of little stuff. Air and water pumps I was going to use for a rdwc... Can't say totes, because we had those for a couple years...they're good for rehydrating the coco, and containing that weird ass odor the powdered nute puts off...

That's a question I should have asked before just going with straight coco.

I've seen 70/30 used most frequently. I think it really is a matter of how much air you want your roots getting and how frequently you feel like watering since more perlite will be lot more regular watering.
