Whats up people?
I am 15 days in to my first INDOOR grow. I've had experience outdoors with nothing but mother mature, bag seed and hose water, but this is my first attempt at total indoors. I started my day count once the seedling broke ground not from the day it cracked its shell. Let me know if that's correct or not, thanks.
My grow "box" is actually a tote, turned vertical and is about 3 1/2 feet tall X 22 inches wide and 20 inches deep. I'm growing from seed in
OF under 2 105 (ACTUAL) watt CFL 6500 K bulbs (which are fuckin huge) in normal workshop lamp fixtures from good ole' HD. I bought 4 bulbs originally but heat became a problem and room was not adequate, I am only growing two plants anyways so no biggie. The seeds I ordered from Herbies, are Vision Seeds Auto-flowering Feminized Northern Lights. I have two of the larger sized computer fans as exhaust fans, rated at like 102 CFMs or some shit like that, and 2 4' inch personal desktop fans in the box used for air circulation. I coated my box in Mylar safety blankets for reflective material. I purchased a 5 gallon jug of RO water so i'm all Gucci until I run out and when I do I already have my pH tester and adjuster kit on hand to use good ole' tap water. When i do switch to tap, I have maxibloom nutrients to add to the mix, which should be in about a week. Supposedly it imitates the Lucas Formula and is good through the whole grow. We'll see. Oh I almost forgot I mixed my OF with about 33% organic perlite for drainage and shit before I planted in my (what i assume to be) 2 gallon nursery pots.
So let me know what you think and I look forward to many more grows with you guys.
