Good time line riz. However, I planted three last week. Two surfaced within a day and a half. The third was silent day after day. After the proverbial seventh day, I carefully removed the soil--it had absconded. The seed was no where to be found. Moral of the story: Some seeds will occasionally walk away. :D cg
 
Ok, been workin on the box, I didnt paint the floor, I figured Im putting a false bottom in anyway so why bother. Anyway, heres a few pics. Has 3 coats binz primer, supposed to seel out moisture. Then 3 coats flat white. Exhaust is in, and intake vent is cut in. Just waitin for it to dry real good and put my lady in there. Be nice to get her out of site........I've been giving her the oxygenated water with the mollases, and today was her feeding of 3/4 tsp of grow big per gallon. Her next feeing in 2 days will be 1tsp grow big and 1/2 Tiger bloom 1/2 table spoon Big Bloom. Shes very healthy looking, but she doesnt seem very big. Im wondering If I should have used 6500k (veg) bulbs to get her to grow, is it too late?????? Or is she just stretching her roots before she gets taller from the transplant into the 3gal smart pot????? Also, on the box, my 6inch duct fan is 250cfm, when I have the door open it mostly blows into the box, like it has resistance on the end, but right now its just the hose laying on the floor, no filter hooked up yet. Heres a few pics of the lady, and the box, primed then painted. The 400hps light I got has the attatched wire, so afterward, I had to pull the corner of the wall out to get the light inside, atleast I noticed before I was done.......As far as my seeds in the FFOF in the hydrofarm humidity dome, everythings good as far as humidity and temp but no signs of life..........OK since I posted this I went and did some reading, dont know if I have enough 6500k's in the mix or not. I had 4-40watt 2700k's around her and 1-2700k 65 watts over her. I left the big 2700 over her but switched out 2 of the side lights with 23 watt 6500k's. Is that ok? Did I do this too late, Damn, hope not

Good job jhn! That box looks almost exactly like mine, 'cept your a lil bigger.
It's not too late to add them 6500k's. Your plant will love it. Please do her the favor!
 
Hey Noods, I switched 2 of the 4 lights on her sides to the 6500's should I switch the other 2 sides and just the one 2700k over her top?
 
nice cab, you might want to get a oscillating fan give the girls passing breezes rather than straight on. if cash is a issue look at local thrift shops
 
Give her as much 6500k on top as you can right now so she grows "up". They are really very greedy when it comes to the daylight bulbs. You'll be able to watch her try to grab it. Hang the 2700's around the sides.
 
And for the record its almost day 5 with the 6 seeds in the heat dome no signs yet.
