Here you go guys. Pics of my Exclusive, High End, Barrel Aged, Artisan, grow space (#2).
I have thawed about four gallons of soil. Amended it with kelp meal, linseed meal, alfalfa meal, Menhaden meal (low temp), azomite, bentonite, DE (for silica and calcium), and earthworm castings.
Why not throw the kitchen sink in too?/! I wrapped the pot (plastic) with two seed mats to run the soil temp up to 74 F. Added some water until the soil is moist. Then add your cover crop seeds and cover. Let it sit for four days 'ish and give her a sniff . . . If it smells like a hardwood forest after a nice rain you're there. I'm there.
I will try to do a fair amount of updates on this grow.
Using a (jungle website) 250w LED and will be running both "Veg" and "Flower" spectrums for the whole grow. I don't know how well this will go with a non-reflective area and I will have to run my vaporizer on a timer to keep the humidity with-in range but one auto in a 30"x30"x4' box with a full 250w all to herself . . I'm hoping for the best.
Just don't pick on me too much as I will not be feeding like the rest of ya' fellers (and ladies?/!).
I will say this though, the difference in flavor and throat feel is night and day difference between a salt grow and an organic one.
I had germination. She never broke the surface though . . .
I will have to redouble my efforts !
What made you decide to grow an auto this time around?
If you have some tinfoil you could line that box or put strips in for some reflective possibilities.
Also I'm soaking my seeds in bean water.
