Norkali's 2nd Indoor Grow - *Cinderella99*
Welcome to Norkali's 2nd indoor growlog. My first indoor grow didn't go too bad at all IMO, I was happily surprised with my results.
Now I have learned from my initial mistakes and have taken the time to fix and upgrade my growspace:
- 6'' Cooltube!
- SunMaster 600w Cool Deluxe MH conv. bulb
- SunMaster 600w Super HPS Deluxe bulb
- 600w Digital Greenhouse ballast
- 4'' duct - replaced with 6''.
- 4 more 2'' intake holes, total of 6 now.
- No more ghetto chains, Hi-Low reflector hangers.
- Plastic tub for flushing/runoff/pH testing, baking racks to elevate pots.
Other implemented/planned improvements:
- Quality genetics - Joey Weed's Cinderella 99
- Fox Farms Nutes:
-Grow Big
-Tiger Bloom
-Big Bloom
- Also, Liquid Karma & Liquinox Start Vitamin B-1
- Purchased both soil and liquid pH test kits
- Purchased pH Up/Down solution.
- Prilled Dolomite Lime to combat acidic Fox Farms nutes.
- LST & Topping during grow.
Soil will remain the same, Black Gold Seedling Mix to start, then Fox Farms Ocean Mix.
Temps are SO much better with the CoolTube, temps barely raise with the door closed.
I really want to play with ScrOG as well, but am still unsure of where/how to mount the screen/how big of screen spacing, etc. - Any advice?
Seeds were popped into the ground on Oct. 13 @ 12:01am PST. It has been three days now, no signs of anything yet, but that was expected. I'm giving them at least a week before I worry. I did not use any pre-planting germination techniques, just a dry seed into moist soil and patience.

Im thinking of ordering some of that C99 from Joey I have been hearing so much about. What did the packaging look like ? Did you have it sent somewhere else besides where you are growing at ? I feel like I should send them somewhere else but don't want to have to tell anyone what they are...

Packaging?? HD is based in Canada, so it just looks like any other international package/mail. I had it shipped directly. If you have to worry about what's coming in the mail because of the occupants of the house, then you probably shouldn't be growing there; realizing of course that I don't know you nor your living situation.
People worry too much about their snail mail being watched. Unless your ordering hundreds of seeds or using stolen credits cards, in my personal opinion at least, you shouldn't worry about it.
Think about it. If the USPS --> FBI/DEA were really interested in you and your odd horticultural purchases, they would just track you on the internet, subpoena a couple of things, warrant, call to your friendly local police dept., bing bang boom. You're done.
Local cops? ....put it this way, if you believe that you possess the nerve, knowledge, and skill to maintain a successful marijuana grow, you should be smart enough not to attract police attention on a general basis in the first place....getting some seeds in the mail should be one of your lesser worries.

Days 8-10
Is it just me or do the leaves look kind of twisted/folded....like the "wind" is too strong. The fan is on the lowest setting as it is...already moved farther way too. A better fan is actually on the way; will be much better suited for my operation.
I think I will be transplanting into bigger pots soon, maybe in the next day or two...oh yeah, I added a 1/2'' of Fox Farms Ocean Forest mix to top the little pots off...the soil will be 100% Fox Farms when I transplant as well.
Probably less frequent updating as well, I'm beginning to think that two pics a day (on average) is excessive. Unless of course you guys like the OCD style documentation. Somebody is paying for the bandwidth. It will be awesome though to watch a high quality time-lapse when the ladies* are done.
*Ladies TBA.

I use 18/6, I never use 24/0. (Unless I had a mother plant)
I put the seedling right under a 600w MH conversion bulb immediately, at about 5.5 ft. away w/ a cool tube (and mylar.)
Now it's about 3.5-4 ft. away.
Good log, get your lights closer though! Swich to the MH!!
