So your cat was just doing what comes natural... In fact, maybe it would be good if you let him eat some yard grass as he may need it..If your cat is a house cat, he has no access to the normal vegatation it would normally have outside. |
Dont worry, just because the thread title I was angry didnt mean I hurt a creature that was doing something only in its nature. Rest assured no negative energy was put towards the cat. I know that would be pointless and I love that furry little thing.

This is my 3rd grow, and my 1st serious attempt. I obtained 10 White Rhino seeds and germinated 5 for this grow. I got 100% germination from the 5 and they were planted in Fox Farm Original 3 weeks ago tomorrow. My past grows were very basic and completely wrong, but I yielded some great buds from the bag seeds. This time around I want to take it much more serious since I know how potent this strain is and I want to get the most out of it I can. I actually focused so much research on ventilation and air flow for this grow that I neglected to really look into everything, which is why Im posting a lot this time around. The last 2 grows I just threw the germinated seeds in 3 gallon pots filled with Fox Farm Original Mix and let them go. This time I want to do things right so that's why I started my seedlings off in 20oz cups. I actually read that in Cultivation Bible on this site that 20oz containers for 3-4 weeks is standard. I just didnt think to drill holes in the 20oz containers for some reason. My 5 gal. buckets are already prepped with drain holes ironically.
As far as pH'ing my water, I cant say that I am. I did a lot of research into the whole pH thing but kinda got confused and figured that I used tap water last 2 times, it will be okay this time too. The room dimensions I cant be sure of. Basically I took my spare rooms closet, hung the 400W Metal Halide with chains on the coat rack bar. Then I took the closet doors and angled them to reflect the light. I didnt spend money on Mylar this time, but I might down the line. What I did after that is divide the room around the closet with white sheets so that the light isnt being wasted. The average temp is around 76-80F. The moisture level is pretty low I will admit. But not much I can do about that but mist the plants now and then.
My next question is about getting holes in the current 20oz containers. I dont want to drill into the containers with the plant in it, but I also am afraid that there isnt a wide enough root system to try and tip the container upside down and pat them out. I actually did this earlier with one as a test. I watered the plant pretty good, let it sit for 10 minutes or so. Then I went to turn the container upside down in hopes that the small root ball at the bottom would come out. No such luck, the soil came crumbling out and the plant almost went with it. I quickly refilled the container with soil and put the plant back under the light. Luckily 4 hours later, its doing just fine. SO the question is A. how do I get the plant out of the container properly at this point? and B. If I do get it out, should I just plant them in the 5 gallon buckets and avoid further complication with the 20oz containers? I know that its way too soon for that size of containers, but Im freakin out here
Im stressing pretty good over this right now, so ANY advice is so GREATLY appreciated I cant even express it.
THANKS
