I believe they are one and the same, but yours sure looks nicer:)

They have you giving calmag up until a week before harvest, I stop using calmag after the stretch and they go a bit strong with all the nutes. I stopped following feed charts when fox farms made me burn my plants.This is the general organics feed chart. Very similar but organic

I am going with half strength and i will stop cal mag after the stretch too. I am using reverse osmosis water i get in 5 gallon jugs. With 9 plants it might take a bit of water. Glad I didnt go 16 :D

I have one plant that is paying for my heavy handed watering. I am now more gentle !!
But what happened was the plant is at the edge of the fabric pot and it is growing. Should i move it by kind of gently digging it up to move it to the center of the pot and just be super gentle or leave it where it is?
I think I watered the seed over to the side of the pot. Dirt and perlite is pretty fluffy.

Nevermind it isnt as bad as I first thought. I will leave it as is. So far 3 of the trans siberian are babies and one of the quarter pounders. I have 3 pots with no activity and a hempy bucket. I will give them all another week and then i might have to pop another seed. If they do not all take off i will stick to 6 :) the diesel is already spreading out and they are going to need some room. 4 to 6 seems just about right

I soaked the seeds in water for about 1 day then put them in damp paper towel until they had a shoot. Then i put them in the pots. About 1 inch in the soil. I should have used a jiffy plug or rockwell cube. But even if it is only 5 plants i think it is going to need the space. 9 plants is a bit crowded. The hempy just got planted on Friday so it has a few more days and it is probably going to get me to 6 plants :D

I've done them with and without the rapid rooters, jiffy pellets etc. Its the same either way. If you have a nice taproot you're good to go. I found its better not to plant it to deep. More like 1/4" . As long as you didn't go too deep and don't drown them you should be fine.I soaked the seeds in water for about 1 day then put them in damp paper towel until they had a shoot.

I planned to post weekly. But I cant stop taking pictures. I have 2 that might sprout and if they don't i will let these go a while and then plunk in a couple more when they are further along and I know what kind of room i need. I decided it is 100% personal so 1 ounce a month will work and more is awesome. :)
So far
1 quarter pounder
3 trans siberian
1 raw diesel at week 5.5 :)
I think the other 2 seeds are not going to make it. 3 didnt survive me (I think the seeds were good i am just brutal at doing the begining part).
In a few weeks i can add a sativa if they do not fill the space but i kind of think they might. I have a couple amnesia haze autos and more raw diesel seeds
Today i went from 4 cobs on to 9 cobs on (240 to 550 watts)
I will check it out tonight to see if the seedlings are ok. If they are I think that raw diesel will explode in growth. :D so will the others
The raw diesel is doing so well maybe i start two at a time in my grow box and then move them into the tent when they are a little bigger. Wow I am learning!

Looking good bro. Don't feel bad I fucked up a good 10 seeds trying to germinate lol. That shit hurt, especially when it was beans I was really looking forward to popping. I got my germination in check now though. I do a soak in water til I see a sprout (24-36h) and then into either the medium or a rapid rooter. Either one has worked fine. I've tried every way though honestly and they all work, I think I was over loving the first onesI planned to post weekly. But I cant stop taking pictures. I have 2 that might sprout and if they don't i will let these go a while and then plunk in a couple more when they are further along and I know what kind of room i need.

i think the rapid rooter helps overcome overwatering love. And it is 1/4 inch in the hole. And i have 50 of them in a bag. Next time that is how we roll. And thanks. I like that I learn all the time. The first time i grew weed a friend gave me rocking clones and it was so easy I had the idea I was a master. Being humbled is often the first step in learning. I also learned to fix my own car (and countless others) and I know one thing. There is no free education. I will learn to grow at the price of seeds.
The crazy thing is i have about 50 seeds left and 25 of them are photos. When I get caught up i can run the photos as clones forever. So this is my hobby until i die and man I love it. :) peace bros and thanks for all of the advice and help. :D
In April or so our country will legalize weed in some fashion. I am pretty sure they have to put in the preclusion of personal growing no matter how much they want to tax the shit out of it. Because the supreme court of canada said you can not say it is legal and then say people can not produce their own.
That being said they might say you can grow 4 plants a year outside...My next grow or the one after will be photos so i can get the hang of trimming over a long veg. Like May to July :D.
Regardless of the outcome i will have my tent to keep on trucking. My summer harvest and 2 microgrows have yielded me a total of 5 oz which will see me through to the next havest and that bad boy will be enough to get me to veg 3 giant plants. :D And I might have said it before but....growing weed is really helping me to cope. I am in immense turmoil and growing something i love is time spent healing.

Same here, cars and weed. Learning the hard way haha. I do love this as a hobby. I look forward to farting around with my grow every day. Small tip for the rapid rooters would be either just put them right in the rr and water a little or you have to tear the little opening more if you sprout them first so you don't damage the root. I also put them in a seedling tray on a heatbpad with a dome for a few days to give them a food head start. Just for clarity though, I'm on my first grow so I always feel funny giving advice. Just telling you what worked for mei think the rapid rooter helps overcome overwatering love. And it is 1/4 inch in the hole. And i have 50 of them in a bag. Next time that is how we roll.

I also have the biggest bag of 1 inch rockwell cubes you have ever seen. Next seed will go in there. And the grow box is the way to go. 100 watts of power starts plants crazy good. I dont want to part with it anyway. My 30 year old son is moving back in with us forever (I told him at least that long) and I promised him an education in growing weed at home and making beer. He is a trained chef and i bought a half pig and cow so we are ready :D

Right on man! That raw diesel is looking nice and healthy. I'm seeing a little bit of PM on the lower leaves. I don't know if you caught that or not but you should try and take care of that before she flowers. Can't wait to see how she turns out.

I think that is splash from a nutrient watering, I use a better container now with easier control and less splashing around. A real bull in a 4 x 4 :o

I turned the light on full and I had to turn the fan controller to medium. Daytime temps are (18-hour day with lights) are 77 to 82 degrees F and when the light is off it goes down to about 72. With the fan on low i was getting to 82. I do notice it dries out the fabric pots really fast but when you are great at overwatering a little bit of help might be in order :D. The diesel started preflowering yesterday. I am keeping it on growth nutes for 2 more weeks and then i will switch to the bloom side of things. The babies are getting pure reverse osmosis water with some bio-root and calmag at 1/2 strength.

More stuff I learned....that light is warm. And the warmth is making the humidity lower than it should be. For now i have a wet towel in the tent and a bucket of water with an aquarium stone in it to produce some humidity. Tomorrow i will add a cool air humidifier to the grow tent and i think that might do it. As it is right now i actually do have to water them every other day because they are getting dry. Things change when you go from 100 watts to 550. The good news is at full blast it peaks out at 84 degrees after 18 hours on. So that is about as high as I want it to get. That is with an oscillating fan and the scrubber on full power. And since i added the actual clamps it is working quieter. Next for that i will put in a rubber thing between the scrubber and the fan to cut it down as far as i can get it. I will get that with the humidifier.
Bannacis you steered me right! Again :)
