my seed arrived Saturday and I germed them last night and they are in warm place at back of freezer.

 

 

 

Nutrients will be delivered tomorrow so whilst i am waiting , todays been quite busy. This morning I popped up town to get an electric blanket, as the room quite cold but couldn't find one within my budgets, so I grabbed myself a heated propagator instead. I thought I could get away with this for few weeks as it's starting to warm up. Also grabbed some pots and markers.

Once I got back i made my light and set the tent up.

 Hi dude. Welcome in.I have been pondering this. Unfortunately I don't have any more funds. The bulbs I had lying around so I was think of keeping an eye and have the clip on fan blowing up towards it for the Moe.

looks good and will be keeping an eye on this as i am also doing the dosidos with verrry similar specs but using bio bizz 

regarding the homemade shade,wouldnt it be better not to use it for safety reasons? 

[perkie_uk101]

@panik
Thank you dude.

 

@monster69

 nice of you to pop in. All the best on your grow bud. I was thinking of lining with foil to reflect the heat but foil produce heat spots doesn't it? The problem without a shade is the plant won't get as much lights for the space.

 

Mmm. Not.sure what else to do..

[perkie_uk101]

Update- it's been 34hr since I started these.  So far all good.

[panik]

That's what I like to see , some nice tails popping out , personally my favourite method the paper towel, you know where you stand and are not wasting pots of soil hoping they pop there heads up then start digging them out 3 days later to see if they've cracked or moulded in soil that's too wet and soggy,.. good job mate keep up the good work,..

[perkie_uk101]

@panik

Morning dude. You cannont fail with this method, unlike last year when I started straight in soil and had issues... thanks to you tho dude everything turned out ok last year. Top man.

 

So I have been getting the area ready. I am feeling confidant that i shouldnt have issues with my homemade shade with the fan blowing towards it. Gunna keep a close eye on it still tho.

 

I have got ot my nutes and compost being delivered in the next 30mins. Once it arrives I'll be also starting my outdoor veg seeds for the garden this year. Going to be growing toms,chillies, peppers, have ECT alongside the girls, till ready to go outside.

 

That's all for now. All have a good day.

 

Perk.

A little update- just finished transplanting the seedlings into the propergater. Lined the holes with some micro fungi, made up 1m of catalyst to 2ltrs of water and planted the seeds. Filled the propagator tray with nute mix and waited for tray to soak up. Got rid of the water, let the mat drip a bit. Done the same with the seed tray and then put it all back together. They are currently with some chillis,peppers and 2 sunflower that I started today also.

 

So all is good just now seeing how long till they all pop up.

 

Picture will follow.

I forgot to mention. I moved the fan and put in box as it vibrating the the floor. may order a sheet of celotex to put under the tent to take some of it.

 

Here's some pics.

[perkie_uk101]

Update but no pics tho- checked the little ones once I got in from work and i had 2 pop above the serfice but wrong way round. I think they were thinking they were in Australia or something lol. I gently pricked them out and put them back in gently so all good now. Affi #1 is just breaking the serfice and looks like she in the correct position.

 

I decided to set the set timer for lights. Light squeduel is 16/8.  on at 7pm, lights out 11am.

@panik
 what's your thoughts on this dude. When I put back in correct way I put soil back over top. Is this alright or should I have had the heads above soil?

[panik]

should be fine mate as long as it wasn't a large amount
