Well after reading "smokedoja's" post on how to build a stealth rubbermaid growbox and after months reading through the forums doing research on how to grow in general, I found that this would be best in my own apartment situation. I have a wife that does not smoke and that is cool with me doing my own thing here but wanted to keep it stealthy and hidden from friends and family. I also followed reading up on "thenoffya's" rubbermaid grow and fell in love with the outcome! So to sum it up, This is my first grow ever. I am using some really good "bagseed" that i came across. It is has a very skunky aroma and is light green in color which made me put aside the seeds i came across and save some money to start my own. I germinated the seeds with the paper towel method and placed on top of my computer router/modem. I dont have pics of that but 3 of the 4 sprouted and were planted into small drinking cups. After about 4-5 days they started to come up out of the soil. Weird becouse it was superbowl sunday and my team the
GIANTS...HEHEHE, did their thing and came home with a victory
For right now and most of the growth i am using Fox Farm organic soil and for nutes Cornucopia Plus Formula X2 one step. I have a buddy of mine who works at the hydroponics shop local and have had alot of sucess with this. I am using 6 CFL's in the rubbermaid box, 4 23w Daylight and 2 23w Soft through my veg. process. During flowering i will most likely move to 4 Soft, 2 Day. As of right now the temp is between 76-83 F with no signs of any problems at all.
They are at the second week since sprouting and the pics are listed below. Everything is going smooth for now and i will keep you all updated as these babies grow. Ofcourse i do know there is a chance of males coming this way but my fingers are crossed and other seedlings are on the way if all else fails....
