    Ya I took a quick look this morning, saw some amber, and got all excited lol. After I looked this evening I realized I jumped the gun. Still holding out!!

    In my introduction to this forum @dogster said when I think they’re done wait 10 more days. I’m going to take his advice and give it more time. I’m slowly getting some amber trichomes and the pistils still look elongated and not quite ready. Correct me if I’m wrong. And btw I counted my days...

    For the seedlings I ended up with a mix. Very small amount of roots organics lush. And a 60/40 of worm castings from my work and some peat. I wanted perlite, but my local hardware store is out. But I had them order a bunch for me for my next run.

    07/15/2023 Seedlings are doing ok for now. They’re not stretching too much yet. Fingers crossed. My one plant I was having issues with I believe is ready to harvest. I’ve been checking trichomes daily, and today there is definitely a noticeable amount of amber mixed in with the milky. The other...

    Entry Thread - Bud Picture of the Month July 2023

    I just spent at least 2 hours reading through 2 of @gmo grow journals. My eyes are burning from being glued to the phone screen. Holy ****! I had no idea dude was such a boss. Mad respect. Glad to be involved with such a master and here’s to future relationships with him and everyone else here...

    07/14/2023 Seedlings are coming up. One is clearly stronger than the rest. Crossing my fingers all goes well. If they survive, the strong one may be a cloner… I actually had to dig through and find the 4 smaller ones, I may of put the seeds too deep. Hopefully crisis averted.

    Ok everyone. Just a thought. I’ve got 6 plants outside (assuming they are late veg/early flower. And 4 inside late in flower. Considering I suck at seedlings. What about cloning?! I’ll fig out seedlings down the road. Eventually lol. I’m not one to normally take the easy way out but I want to...

    Hello I’m new to the forum!!!

    @MiniGrowz just order seeds and have them delivered to a friends house that is “cool” but doesn’t partake. Then, if the man wants to give the recipient grief about it, they can deny anything with no repercussions due to the facts that 1. They don’t partake and 2. They’re obviously not growing at...

    It is castings and dirt they come in. We get them bulk in big flats of dirt.

    Just started them last night. Too early to tell.. Also, I work at an outdoor fishing/hunting store and we sell live bait. I get worm dirt from the leftover bulk night crawlers. Would this be a good starter? And what ratio?

    I was wondering that. These last 4 I’ve put 25% miracle grow soil, 75% peat. Hoping that would tone the hotness down and maybe provide a looser substrate for the roots to move around in.

    No need for all that. I’m growing inside. I just thought of maybe starting the seedlings outside and letting nature do it’s thing until they were strong enough to bring inside and finish on the LED. Because obviously I cannot get seedlings to survive. But I was worried the solstice would mess...

    They’ve all perished. My first run was the best, they grew to about 4 inches and toppled over and died. All the rest germinated but when they popped up they died. Assuming from too much light from the LED. Idk.. I’m struggling!! I was trying them in groups of 2-4 so I didn’t have all my eggs in...

    I get that. I started moist and still couldn’t get them to thrive. So I tried a little more dry. Your suggestions about nature make sense. I just am willing to try anything at this point. I was wondering about putting them outside. But wasn’t sure if the solstice has hit yet and if that would...

    I still suck at seedlings. I’m getting frustrated. I just can’t fig it out. Spider farmer sf1000. Specs from manufacturers website says 25”-30” at 40%-60%. I’ve tried that, ive tried 18 inches which is what I vegged at during my present run. Now the light is a foot or less and this batch is not...

    Update 07/09/2023 Everything is looking good. One of the girls is still maybe a couple weeks out from finishing. Just hit 8 weeks today.. Trichomes are getting milky, but waiting for the pistils to fully shrink and trichomes to have a little amber in them before I harvest. I feel like the...

    Ok I’m sure I can lower it or put it in a bigger cup and recess it. And there is a dime sized drain hole in each.

    Hey @SubmarineGirl , thanks for joining my thread and assisting me in my journey! Any comments and advice is greatly appreciated. I started around 24”-30” at 60% brightness, as per the Spider Farmer manufacturer specifications for seedlings. After 2 seedlings fell over and died I put it at 100%...
