Ok. I'm going to attempt a journal. I have grown a stack of lowberry's in miracle gro dirt with MG nutes and flourescent lights and can consistently get small 7-10gram plants. I constantly ended up with one deficiency or another and constant ph drops and flushing and rerunning and ammending the dirt but the slow release chemicals just keep dropping the ph and causing lockout.
This time around I've got the SGS auto mix pack. (white citrus, mystery citrus, green ogre, pink ogre, pink salad and random phenos)
I dropped the 6 dark brown seeds which should be pinksalad/pink ogre's. Two days later 4 popped up. I soak in water with kelp/root hormone overnight. Then plant into 1" rockwool cubes in a germ tray and once sprouted I place into 3" rockwool cubes in a 16oz cup(keep the rockwool from falling apart for next grow) with the bottom cut out for the tiered transplant method. Place a thin layer of dirt on top to keep the rockwool from drying and dirt in the bottom to fill the cup.
I will be using sunshine mix #4 aggregate plus from homedepot. I have foxfarm big bloom, grow big, tiger bloom, microbe brew, kangaroots, sledgehammer, cha ching, beastie bloomz and open sesame. All purchased in smaller amounts off of ebay for a very reasonable price.
I've got some kelp, brer rabbit molasses, epsom salt and superthrive.
I will be feeding with the foxfarm schedule dividing everything by 1/4 to start.
I have a 135w ufo and cfls in 2700k and 5000k spectrum. Starting them at 24/0 then vegging at 20/4 and flowering in the 18/6 range. Adding a UVB 10.0 lizard bulb the last 4 weeks. In my flowering area the cfls kick on for a half hour then the led kicks on for 18 hours with them then off and the cfls run for an extra half hour to simulate morning and night. *edited hours
More later.....
