Hello everyone...after spending the last few weeks reading the grow guides and many of the posts on this amazing site, and absorbing as much as possible, we are going to begin our first grow, 5 feminized Lowlife auto AK-47 from Dope-seeds.com. I will try to keep this grow journal as detailed as possible and welcome any and all feedback from fellow members. :)

These seeds were germed in cups of miracle grow seedling soil, with plastic water bottles for domes, under a 400w HPS light. The cups were soaked down with distilled
water and left to drain for around a half hour then the seeds were planted about 1/2" down, tip in sideways. Planted about noon on 10/6 they took around four days to pop
from the soil, the number 3 cup just popped up today (10/11). have removed all the domes except for number 3 which i will remove as soon as i see the first set of serated leaves. These plants will be transplanted into fox farm ocean forest soil in five gallon pots. More to follow....

thanks for the mojo and kind words bro :) i am hoping that the five gal pots and keeping them within a 3x3 area under the 400w will give it enough light and root space to get a decent yield ... :hubba:

5 gallon pots shld do nicely...I think 400 watts shld be ok...you want 5000 lumens per square foot I believe...just smoked a nice bowl so math is out of the question right now...:)

lol blaze it up dude! :bong: we're out...growwwww :watchplant: ...im not high so i believe the math would be my 50000 lumens divided by 9sq ft would be 5555 lumens per sq ft... sound right?
 
lol...yeah that's what my calculator says...you will be fine then...you just hve to keep an eye on your ph and keep a good air exchange going...
 
just a quick update...kids are coming along nicely...one is a bit on the small size compared to the rest but is coming along none the less...am watering every few days when the soil gets dry, am venting the room with a 465 cfm fan with a passive intake...temps are averaging around 75f...will be transplanting into the ffof soon...once they start flowering i will be feeding them with fox farms tiger bloom...also waiting on an order from nirvana for some blue mystic beans:hubba: ...anyone ever grown this strain?

will get some more pics taken as soon as i can get batteries for the camera

Don't worry about the broken leaf...if you saw how bad my Headband cross looked then you will know just how tough MJ is...it was down to almost nothing and rebounded nicely once I got my soil problems squared away...things are looking good...keep it green...
