Hey Farmers,
It all started when I smoked a little too much weed one night and decided “Fuck it, I’ll just see if these old seeds will germinate.” Long story short, they did. And from that moment, I jumped into your world with both feet real quick and my god is it difficult to do with so many stores closed right now with the current flu pandemic. And like minded people like myself are clearly doing the same thing because a lot of products are sold out in the few stores that are open.
I’ve been pulled to this website more than once in my quest to absorb as much info as I can but damn am I overwhelmed by the world of cannabis farming.
I have no idea the sex of the seeds, but I did grab a large quantity of the flower when I acquired them. Some of the big nugs had 20 seeds, some had none at all so I kept them all hoping they would be female. It was Pineapple Express and all I remember is it tasted great or I wouldn’t have kept the seeds.
Here’s my setup. Just transplanted them into the 24L (6.34 gallons) cloth pots with pro mix VH organic soil. Mixed in some extra Vermiculite. Mars Hydro TS-1000W is 24” above the plants. Trying to maintain 23.5C @ 65% humidity for 24 hours at this stage (read that seedlings love the light and I don’t need to switch to 18/6 yet). Decent airflow (for now). Tap water quality in my area is ~137mg/L or ~9.6 grains/gallon. I leave it out for 48 hours before using.
I already know of a lot of things I would do differently to start my 2nd grow. But what are your suggestions to improve my current situation? It seems that everyone is using nutrients unless they have a type of super soil. What organic nutrients should I be using? Nature’s Nectar seems to be an interesting nute for a decent price. I see a lot of people using Gaia Green as well but it seems to be on the pricier end (unless prices just went up because of limited quantities).
Any comments would be appreciated seeing as I am I complete noob with this.
P.s I have only physically shopped at a store once during this entire project to pick up the soil itself, and I did it when I had to buy groceries as well. I don’t want to give the impression that I’ve been irresponsible with social distancing.
