Sounds good...what kind of space are you in? Ventilation/odor control?

just a small space mate its roughly 65cm x 75cm and 2m in height ( small cupboard). as its my first grow im waiting a few weeks to pick up my carbon filter kit and i have vents at the top and bottom of the door and a fan inside to move the air. just need to figure out how im going to setup the carbon filter and fan, i will put the carbon filter in the grow room and use acoustic ducting to put the extractor fan up into the loft/attic to reduce the noise from it

Yeh get the light on them no need to wait till they pop up. Also with bio bizz light mix there are no nutes/micro nutes for your seedling usualy most soils have enougth for the first few weeks . So i have started giving mine 1/4 dose of fish mix at like7days old mine seem to like it but everyones oppinion is differant on the feeding early im gona sub to this thread since its a soil/bio bizz grow Si

i picked up the grow and bloom and also some root juice, do you think i would be better using some root juice after the first week?

There is plenty of good stuff in the soil and your using big pots so your all good for 2 maybe 3 weeks. My current grow has 15l pots and a light mix and all they have had is PH 6.5 water for 3 weeks.

Its down to personal preferance i dont have any root juice but if i did i would give it soon as the first true leaves show. But do not use grow or bloom till at the min 3weeks most will recomend using bloom when full flower starts but im growing using a certain bio bizz chart i have got i have 2 charts and both are differant i dont know why tho but i used grow last two grows and this time im using fish mix for the first 3weeks and they seem to like it alot better might be these strains tho Si

how much and how often should i water them just now? i pre wet the soil before i planted last night with about a liter of water and it was wet up to my knuckle, i checked again tonight and it was wet for about a inch or so, do you think i should water tomorrow or thursday? and should i be using more water just now?
