Let your sprouts get big before you up-pot them because they will drown in larger pots. Weigh your cups for the best water maintenance. Keeping the container small in the beginning is the best way to water management. The starting soil is Fox Farms water only. Pro mix is not a water-only potting mix. Promix has to be fed a low ppm.so i think i wana mimic your simple stuff i got 4 gals im going to transplant this week. Im going to buy the promix you suggested but i had a question. No worm castings! or powder for roots? just water? and cal mag? thx for the tips! im studiously observing….
do if maybe you recommend getting a heat mat? its amazing how just the temp of water being cold shrivels em up. im gona start warming my water up tooI take 5 gallons of RO and add 6 to 8 MLS of cal mag. and let it set for 24 hrs. The starting ppm is in the 80s. I take that water and add GH fertilizer at 50% with 2 MLS of acid. It yields about 300 to 400 ppm of water with a 6.2 pH. I always warm up my intake water to over 74F or 23C by putting a pot of water on the stove and bringing it to a boil. I then take the pot and dip into the intake water to warm it up. Here's a photo of what happens when I use cold water.

You may want to rethink your timing on transplanting. Instead of developing roots, your seedlings have released a hormone that causes rapid stem cell elongation in an effort to get more light. Add some moistened (not wet) medium to support the spindly stems, increase light and let the root system develop for 5-7 days. Think about transplanting when you get the first multi-leafed node. Good luck.so i think i wana mimic your simple stuff i got 4 gals im going to transplant this week. Im going to buy the promix you suggested but i had a question.

Trixes easy-peasy cheap way to grow super weed.
Keeping it simple without a bunch of science or bull-shit, this has to be the easiest way to grow weed.
uh????
thanks for posting this thread as i can see now you definitely should not be giving advice to other growers..
10-4 i thought about support so my thoughts were spot on thanks for the advice!You may want to rethink your timing on transplanting.
