[sam2016]

Hi everyone , this is my first grow diary on here so welcome everyone along for the ride , I've just finished a grow .2 haze xxls from dinafem which I got into a spot of bother through under feeding but thanks to @Waira and the guys in the infirmary we managed to bring them back to good health , this time I'm growing 3 northern lights x big Budd from world of seeds , my tent is 60 x 60 x 120cm so I hope the 3 girls will have enough room , I plan on germinating paper towel method as I have a good success rate this way .

I'll be growing in plagron light mix soil with 30% perlite , I'll be using plagron algae grow and bloom mutes I also have plagron sugar royale and plagron pk 13 14 , I plan on starting them in their finishing pots 10" diameter . the first few weeks seedling stage I'll have them under a 300watt dual spec cfl and then changing them over to a 250 watt HP's , I plan on running the lights 20/4 for the whole cycle , I have a clip on fan and a 4" extracter fan for ventilation , oh yea and I use bottled water ,

:smoking::smoking:So we had the electrician out and we are good to go , I germinated the 3 seeds paper towl method Thursday evening and all 3 have taproots this evening . I have them all in the tent now under my cfl , temps 21c humidity 70% , I don't have any fans running yet I'll wait till we break through the soil I think . I planted them straight into their final (10") pots that I've had prewatered since yesterday , not much to see yet but I'll put up pics when hopefully my 3 ladies break through the soil ,thanks for stopping by

Came down stairs this morning to be greeted by all three girls broke through , (relieved) I'm always nervous about this time but all looks well temps around 21c and 70% humidity with the light on , should I turn on my extractor fan or is there any need yet ? Here's some pics :smoking:

up up up and away
bedroom window,vents open and a lil 6" fan in the tent should be ok for a week or so.whats the temps like when the extraction fan is on ?

Hi Archie , I haven't turned on the extractor yet pal , I do have the vent at the back open and the window open all day tho but from my last grow with my clip on fan and extractor on with the 250hps temp was 26 28c
