West sieeeeeed.
Looks healthy. Many of us started with bagseed. What's your setup?

[Orggrwr]

Welcome neighbor ( I'm in Fredericksburg Va),looking good so far.

[Gingerbeard]

From your handle, I was assuming you were in Oregon. Oregon Grower.
Organic Grower?

After looking pretty closely over the overwhelming set-up data provided by GWE, I’ve kinda went off reservation with my personal indoor grow setup. Details to come as the grow develops. I’ve already been successful from wet seed to the beginning stages of veg. We’ll see how it all unfolds. Thanks for the encouraging feedback so far!

Bagseeeed!!! i'll be watching this little fella

Up up and away

[Orggrwr]

Yeah, it's for organic grower. Didn't put a lot of thought into it. Maybe I should change it.

[Gingerbeard]

And give up your stats? No way. I'm a poop for misunderstanding, as I do. You are, and forever will be Orggrwr.

Bag seed grow. Did it for years. Had pretty good luck. I usually germinated 25 or more and got around 10 that were female and healthy enough to go 90 to 120 days.

My first grow was bag seed. Had no clue what I was doing. It worked out great..

[dirtymike]

So…14 days from wet seed. I appreciate y’all’s interest in my first grow. The single seed was recently found in the bottom of my Tupperware stash box. I’d tossed it there some months ago, having found it in an 8-gram purchase of THCA hemp flower from a local smoke shop. I decided to use it as a test case for my setup and help gone tune it. If this thing turns out to be a girl, and, I can get it to harvest, I figure I’ll be ready to plant more seriously with purchased feminized seeds.

[odie]

…fine tune 🙄

Basic setup…fabricated 4X3 grow tent in the basement…Walmart special potting soil, (I really liked the overall composition of the mix…lots of larger pieces to aid water drainage)…from Lowe’s Home Improvement, a Good Earth Lighting 182 watt, multiple spectrum LED strip…I’m pleased with the results so far…keeping a close eye on it all

"GEL" I'm on my 3rd yr. using 3 of these lights.They may not be the best but they work for me on my limited budget. Not that expensive when on sale.

[Gingerbeard]

Are you looking for advice along the way or just sharing?
You initially seemed pensive about showing your setup. Is that because you spent less than $5,000?

[Cougar672]

I want Odie to be successful so I hope he is looking for advice.

[odie]

Sure…advice would be welcome, and yes…although I’m looking for satisfactory results, I’m not looking to spend a lot of dough.
I guess, what I’m really looking for from the GWE forums is to help me keep an eye on the grow as it unfolds…help me spot signs of distress and when the time comes, figuring out the sex as early as possible…thanks so much y’all

[odie]

It’s looking healthy to me so far…what say y’all?
