Hello everyone, excited and anxious about my first attempt to grow. Figured I'd document my experience so that all of you experts and seasoned growers can lend a hand or give some tips and advice.

About the grow:

I am running a Zazzy grow 3x3 tent, Linqool 240w LED, 36w 395nm led black light, vivosun 4 inch fan and filter combo, 2 x 6 inch hurricane fans.
I'll be growing in 5 gallon fabric pots and plan to manifold these ladies. Base soil is a mix of roots organic original, coco coir, perlite, worm castings and some random Lowes soil I had hanging around.
I'm running a living/super soil using DTE 333, Rose and flower, and acid mixes. I plan to top dress with Bio-Live every 4 weeks.

I just germinated 4 x Expert seeds MAC 1 over night in coconut water and placed directly in thier forever home. I layer 1/3 of the pot with supersoil, then used a 2 liter bottle and filled in more supersoil around the sides of the pot, creating a well to put an unfertilized version of my supersoil. Temps are hovering around 74 degrees and humidity at 84%.

I know that I am probably choosing the "slower" way by not germinating in another fashion, but I would rather avoid transplanting since it is my first go around. Time isn't an issue, this is my own personal medicine, so it is all about the journey and learning. I appreciate all of the knowledge I've picked up so far lurking around the thread, and look forward to hearing feedback. Wish me luck!!!

I've ordered in europe/spain for 9 Apple Betty from Herbies, a friend told me to try coz I like fruity tastes. And as freebies Amnesia Lemon, I should receive the seeds before the material. Maybe I'll make a diary if it turns well!

***Update***

No news here, lol. No sprouts yet. Maintaining 75-80%rh and 70-75 degrees F. I planted on Sunday, so shouldn't worry about anything until Friday/Saturday? My anxiety is starting to play with me since there is literally nothing for me to do but wait
