Hi everyone, This is my third grow, and first grow journal. The first two grows failed by the seedling stage. I’m hoping by starting a grow journal I could go all the way to harvesting potent buds. Here’s my set up: 1. Seeds: 6 DNA Genetics Kosher Sorbet & 3 Seedsman Bubba Kush 2. 32” by 32” grow tent 3. Lighting: I’m using a 220w blurpie LED at 110W until Monday. 4. Lighting: I’m replacing the blurpie LED on Monday. I will replace it using 1 or/and 2 Agrobrite 26W 6400k CFL with clamp light fixtures for seedlings. 5. Lighting: I also bought a Mars Hydro TS-1000 6. Soil: FF Happy Frog 7. Nutrients: FF Dirty Dozen and FF Cal Mag 8. Ventillation: Genesis 6 inch clip fan 9. Ventillation and Odor Control: I set up the inline fan, ducting and carbon filter that came with my amazon grow tent and blurpie led 10. Miscellaneous: PH Meter, PH up & Down, PPM meter, 5 gallon buckets, Dixie Cups, Humidity Dome, spray bottle, 1 ML water drops, 100 ml syringe, Mykos, Atree Soil pH Meter, 3-in-1 Soil Tester Kits with Moisture, Light and PH ---

My seeds were put in wet paper towels yesterday. I will make holes in my dixie cups. I will water the dixie cup with 10 ml water, then place the seeds in, and putting them in a humidity dome. I’m thinking of putting mykos on the tail before planting them. It would be the first time I use mykos. Should I put mykos on my seeds? ---

You will struggle with those lights fair warning so don’t expect much. 👍 Don’t be putting anything on the seeds. Also you won’t need any nutrients till around 6 weeks above ground. ---

I can’t help with the mykos question I just ordered my sample pack so haven’t used it. ---

Hi @MrPeat, thanks for the advice. Can you elaborate on what sort of struggles I can expect with my lights and why. I didn’t know happy frog had that much nutrients. I grew with FFOF the other times, and heard happy frog is better than FFOF for seedlings. ---

Hi @SKORPION, I’m not going to use mykos per MrPeat’s advice. Thanks ---

Normally use the mykos when you pot up to a bigger size pot sprinkle a little in before replant. ---

Hey @SKORPION, I just ordered the mars hydro ts-1000. I don’t need it right away; therefore, I could return it and spend a few more dollars for a better light. ---

I just planted one kosher sorbet. Two more Kosher Sorbet seeds look like they’re almost ready to go. Two Problems: 1. The temperature in the humidity dome is 84F. I lowered my central air conditioner 8 degrees. 2. The humidity in the dome is 42%. The dome’s air holes are open. What should I do to higher my humidity? ---

Mist the inside of the dome with a spray bottle. Humidity will go up. ---

Hey guys, All 6 of the KS cracked after 24 hours in a paper towel. None of the bubba kush have, but they were freebies. I planted all of the KS in soil. I planted the first seed less then 4 hours ago with 10 ml water. I just watered them again with 5 ml of water because the soil dried up. My fans and CFLS are coming in on Monday. The humidity is actually around 55% opposed to the picture ---

Hey @beardless , I put 9 seeds in the paper towel pretty much 24 hours ago. 6 of them were Kosher Sorbet, and they all cracked out of their shell and planted. ---

Hey @kellydans it raised the humidity to 52%. Do you have any more tips to raise humidity even higher. Thanks [Next page](https://ilgmforum.com/t/this-will-hopefully-be-my-first-successful-grow/48597.md?page=2)
