I planted the seed last Sunday, the old soak, poke and pray germination method. This is day 4 and so far so good. I have had a real problem with pro-mix bx so I am adding about a third by volume of some black gold potting soil with 2/3 cup lime and about a cup of perlite to a 3 gallon airpot. The pro-mix keeps reverting back to a 5.5 ph within four weeks of planting even after adding lime a few weeks before planting (over a cup in 5 gallons of medium). I will use Fox Farm nutes and advanced sensi cal/mag and superthrive. Light schedule is 20/4 in a 3X3X6 Mars tent. A 6in duct booster fan (240 cfm) for extraction with a 6 in carbon filter and one 6in clip-on fan for circulation. The room temps are up so I will not be using the T5's in the corners for heat, just the reflector 96 with both switched on at about 24 inches throughout growth. Sometime this year I hope to get the right size light in this tent, Mars II 900 maybe. I expect a mid size plant, 24-30 inches, with 60-70 gram yield in about nine weeks.

Almost two weeks old and the plant has been doing well. At about day seven I gave the plant some superthrive (half cap) in a gallon of water and today the plant got it's first real feeding. A gallon of 15ml big bloom, 3ml each of kangaroots, microbebrew, kelp me and grow big at about 6.5 ph with about a half quart of run-off. The light is at about 26in and the temps are holding at about 80f with the extraction fan at 3/4 speed.

Looking good, sounds like your plant gets a lot more health supplements in than I do, The only goodness in me is the ganja! She has got so much room to grow, I'm imagining that tent full! Looks healthy an happy, all that p96 for one plant, you are showing her much love:greenthumb:

At just three weeks this girl is showing some good color and growth. Now that I not trying to pass kidney stones I can spend some time with my girls. The Black Gold potting mix I added to the pro-mix bx seems to be working. Also I think going back to adding superthrive and cal/mag every week has helped. I have increased the nutes to 20ml big bloom and 5ml each kangaroots, kelp me, microbebrew and grow big per gallon every 3/4 days. My new seed order just arrived so I can get my other tent (2X4X7') ready for action. The light is at about 26 inches.

Four weeks old and showing some good bud sites with growth and color still good. The plant is about 14 inches tall and I expect another 10 inches before vertical growth stops, around day 38 for most of the other plants I grew. Should I start another thread in indoor growing or can this thread be moved?
