Alright chaps, I'm about a week away from getting my grow kicked off (assuming my 9-5 doesn't keep spilling over into my free time). I'll post details and pictures of my full setup as soon as she's complete.
In the meantime, I need to make preperations for the grow, namely choosing a soil and possible nutrients.
My first grow will be an afghan kush ryder and a pakistani ryder, both autos.
My plan is this:
1. Germinate both in cotton wool using a method I've read about on this forum.
2. Transfer seedlings into relatively small pots (haven't bought these yet), using john innes #1 soil.
3. When they're ready, transfer plants into 11ltr pots containing john Innes #2 soil for the remainder of the grow.
I've done a lot of research using the forum so hopefully I'm on the right track. Here're my questions:
1. Do the above steps sound reasonable for ryders/autos?
2. Is john innes my best choice for those strains?
3. I'm tempted to get some bio bizz grow/bloom, as I've read good things about them, was also thinking of getting some tomorite, but I've also read some horror stories about overfeeding so I'd love to hear opinions on whether they're recommended for these strains or needed at all even.
I'll make a diary once this thing's kicked off, so I'm sure these are questions that could be answered as I go, but I'd really appreciate some input now so that I'm as prepared as I can be even if it's probably old hat to a lot of you!
Thanks in advance.
