| | | REZN'S First Grow Rubbermaid Style!
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.... |

| | | Rubbermaid update
Well its been about a week or so since the last update, I took clones from each plant and topped them all last week. They are still doing great and are now into day two of flowering.... (I am trying to keep them short due to space). So far i have signs of two female plants. The other one has not shown any signs yet but ill give it a little time. Please if you can look at the pics and verify that these are females that would be great!!! Ill let these babies go on for a while and update this
thread soon. Thanks all for viewing my journal. |
