Wish I had the room for a Bigger Tent. 32/32/63" is not much room. But it’s all for personal use anyway.

I used a direct bank deposit. Nobody can tell why the payment was sent, only where. My wife felt it was safer than cash because we have a mail thief working in our post office. But ILGM will let you know as soon as payment arrives. For me, in Southern Nevada, it took 7 days to get my seeds from the day they emailed me saying payment arrived.
There are several people on the forum who send cash with no issues at all.
I ordered Feminised seeds but didn’t order auto flower. Don’t even know what that means. Ranman.
Auto seeds have been altered in some manner (I’m not smart enough to know exactly how) so that they do not need shorter daylight hours to go into flower, they just go through their stages automatically.
I have seeds in Jiffy Pellets now. Today is the 3rd Day. I hope to put 2 plants in my 32/32/63" Tent with 600 LED light. I put all 5 seeds in separate Jiffy Pellets. I am hoping two sprout anyway. If 3 or more sprout I will put all but the two best outside. Wish me luck. Thanks for all replies. Ranman.
Good luck! What strains did you get? Looking forward to seeing your girls grow!
Autos are usually a photo strain crossed with Ruderalis cannabis species. The Ruderalis is a natural flowering cannabis strain that is low in tch but high in CBD, used to cross with Photos because they have a built-in timer for flowering. They auto-flower at 3-4 weeks no matter the light schedule. Photo’s, only flower when the light schedule is changed to 12-12. Just future fyi. They are sought after for fast buds. So far all of ILGM strains in the auto are really good. They have a solid thc content with the CBD added from mixing them with the Ruderalis species.
I went with Northern Lights Feminized seeds. In Jiffy Pellets 3days and they are starting to sprout. Yah!
Awesome strain!!! Good luck vibes all day.
I am stoked. Got my Northern Lights Feminized seeds within one week after they received cash. Now after only 5 days they have all sprouted in Jiffy Pellets. All 5. I was worried because my Dome was reading 66 degrees. I live in Mid Atlantic. I was reading the ilgm forum and it said use a heat strip or pad. Then it said if you don’t have that put on your cable box,I did that and the Dome has read a constant 75 degrees. They sprouted after the first day. They are only 5 days old at 3.10 Today. Wish me luck. Ranman.
awesome!!!
Now the Big Question how long should I leave my seedlings/plants in the Dome before Transplanting into my Ocean Forest soil in 3 gallon fabric grow pots and getting them in Tent and start the 18 on 6 hours off light. 600 LED LIGHT.32/32/63" Grow Tent???
Thanks for all the help. Ranman.
Also after only 5 days in Jiffy Pellet Dome 2 are already hitting the top of the Dome. Hope this doesn’t hurt my girls. Northern Lights Feminized seeds not Auto flower. Tent package was missing the 2 Fabric grow pots and shears. Should I just go buy the Fabric pots now & should I get the 3 or 5 gallon ones? Ranman.
I use 7 gallon myself, but only run 2-3 plants in my space so I veg em longer to get bigger. You’re growing photo’s so I would say get 5 gallon fabrics. Wait to move them until your ready to put them in their final home. If they are already hitting the tops of the dome I would remove the tops now until you are ready to transplant. They will be ready to transplant shortly. Photo’s I usually wait at least 2-3 weeks before transplanting, but they will let you know when their leaves reach the edge of the cup usually…
here is a good video on transplanting jiffy pucs/pellets, same methods for your girls but I would just transplant them into your final pots when ready.
Tokerguy they are already 3 to 4 inches tall. They are on my cable box for heat. I am afraid they are going to lean over and die. My. Wife is gone until Friday morning. Should I just leave them be they have a fan blowing on them lightly. Should I put them in grow tent for like one hour today which is only day 5. If I put them in Tent for like one hour today one and a half tomorrow. They say to take them outside so they can get use to the sun light. But it’s to cool here for that. What do you think? Ranman.
Tokerguy so you use Auto,s so after they sprout and you Transplant, you just light them 24/7 ? Ranman.
Thanks Tokerguy you have been very helpful and I appreciate your knowledge. I am ready to transplant them into pots now but had to go to Home Depot and order them. They say they should arrive by the 26th 29th. I am using Foxfarm Ocean Forest soil. Should I buy any type of nutrients for Transplanting the Jiffy Pellets into the soil. The back of the bags say no nutrients. But they don’t know what I a m growing. Do you think it will hurt them to put them in Tent with light at highest I can. I thought about putting them in there 1 hour then 11/2 and so forth until I get pots that are permanent? Ranman.
I use a 18/6 for veg, and 12/12 for flowers. You can move them under a light as long as it 70-78 degrees in there. I would try to keep the light around 12 inches from your seedlings and then transplant when you start to see roots if using pellets.
I use the same soil. It’s good stuff. I haven’t needed to start any nutes until about 3 weeks before I flip the lights. U can use their nutes. People here use them often. Others prefer more organic, some blast them. I like to wait for the plant to tell me it needs something before I add it. If you ever see anything crazy or you just want verification it is going good, post a pic and tag me. If I don’t know I will find some good people that do know here on the site.
