My First Bubbly setup

TheHappyCroppa · May 10, 2010

Hey all I decided to switch setups from soil and decided to try bubbleplonics. (I will post up my soil journal once I have all photos together). I didn't start pics until after seeds sprouted, so I will have to explain the beginning. I originally started off with 4 bag seeds, 2 of them showed life and the other 2 didn't. So, I then decided to try more bag seeds about 8 this time. I have about 50 of them so I have a lot to play with. Out of the 8 I had 2 pop up. I normally have better odds with sprouting seeds, but I decided to rush it this time just to get it going. I started off using a 5gal. bucket for the 4 babies.
Fist pic- I went and purchased a 190gph water pump
Second pic- I purchased a 5-10 gal. 2 hose air pump
third pic- I also bought 2 bubble wands a small and large one.
I put the setup together finally and added the 4 babies to them. The next set of pics was taken a few days later after adding them.
Forth pic- Bag seed #1
Fifth pic- Bag seed #2
sixth pic- Bag seed #3
seventh pic- Bag seed #4 has not popped up yet
eight pic- all 4
ninth pic- close up of #3
tenth pic- close up of #1

I haven't seen a setup like this, what are those red balls & the green stuff? Gonna sit around for this one, would like to see how it goes.

The red balls are called hydroton which holds in moisture and keeps the roots nice and moist when they grow through it. The cube are rockwools, they are used to hold the seedlings which they can grow and root through, can also use them to root clones.

The pics above was the first set of pics I took of them which was 4 days after the first seed had popped open. The other 3 each pop one day after another which you can tell by the height difference. 2 of them actually were growing upside down so i had to correct them. I gave them their first real shot of nutes on their 5th day from popping,which was as followed: Nirvana, Iguana juice grow, Grandma Enggy's F1-h2- and seaweed extract, botanicare sweet and calmag, liquid carboload and voodoo juice. I try to use everything organic for my babies. I just recently purchased the sweet and calmag, so its my first time really using these 2 with my nutes. I also purchased a bottle of superthrive, but I'm waiting for them to get a little bigger before I give them that.
Seeds #1,2,3 are showing good results, last one still has not popped up yet. The first 4 pics were taken at 7am, then the next set was around 2pm.
