Nirvana Blackberry Indoor Hydro/DWC from seed
    #447148 - 07/16/10 03:25 PM (14 years, 5 months ago)

Hi all this is my first time postin to a forum since the fall of overgrow.com :frown:
But here goes. just got my nirvana blackberry today and am germinating them in paper towels now. this first grow will be 4 in soil and one in a hydro bucket, i will then take clones and do the rest of my grows in a diy dwc system that i am making. i have a few questions.

1. what is the best type of water 2 use in a hydro system (ie tap or should i buy some)
2.While changing res where do u put ur plant?
3.should i use superthrive on the seedlings or wait til i put in soil?

yeah holding 6 plants in one hand and taking a 8-10 gallon rubbermaid tub into another room to dump and mix is kinda outta the question (not to mention all the cords and hoses that i will have to take with it) if the roots are hanging out does it have to be in water or can they be in the air while i change the res? as for the fish store i live in a small town and stuff for that or hydro is few and far between. so i am also workin with very limited supply. as for pumping it out i dont really have a place to pump it my house is really small and i dont really have a way to pump it to a drain even if i did do that it would be really noticable and i have a rental so i cant really drill holes or anything. plus im poor so im on limited budget hence the reason im makin my own and not buyin one and a couple grow tents. howeva my wal-mart does have a oasis water thing there where u fill ur own jugs with water would that work for my water?

ok today 2 of the young seedlings went under light. one is in a 2 gallon small dwc non bubble bucket that i made for a grow in the past. and the other is in a 17 qt flower pot. they are for the moment on strictly tap water wit superthrive i will do this until i have some healthy nodes and then got to water from the culligen machine at wal-mart. btw all seeds did germinate but the others are not out of the ground yet :frown: wonder what would keep the others from sprouting at the same time is this normal? this is the first time i have done the paper towel method with more than one seed. so the journey begins! oh and the one in the 17 qt is in miracle-gro with micro max. i know this is not the ideal soil but it is all i can get around here and to get a 1 cu bag of fox farm soil is $35 plus shipping and i got this at wally world for $10 what can i say im poor.

ok i have a prob. i have pretty much had this prob since i have moved into the house and i think it is the house. i have alot of nats they seem to only want to be in my grow area i have used organic bug spay to kill them off but nothing seems to be happening. i think they get in somewhere around windows because a wasp or 2 is know to get in. my question is how do i kill off the nats cuz they are getting in my nute water on the hydro grow. the other 3 have not come outta the dirt yet and i am starting to get worried bout them. pictures will follow soon. ive had some computer probs and the one i have now doestn have a card reader but i will have some soon.

Ok i had some pics from when they were younger but the new comp can read sd cards, but anyway these are my ladies now. i tried supercropping on them in efforts to get more tops and more bud this went well on the hydro but on the soil no so much. i bent them down last night and this morning they were standing straight up. so i rebent them and the soil one snapped  in half so i guess i topped it instead. so tryin to save the top that i did not want to take off i dipped it in rooting hormone, dropped it in a rockwool cube and sprayed it down with a mix of water/superthrive. hope this saves it.

ok so today i decided since the soil one was topped i would go ahead and top the hydro one since i am tryin to see what is best. and believe it or not the soil is winning by ALOT. so i topped it and made the top a clone i put it in the cloning chamber with the other top and the one from the soil was a little to big for the cloner so i topped it and made the top part of that one a clone. so now i have 3 clones (hope they all make it cuz that will make up for the seeds that did not come out of the ground). so now we play the waiting game, queue jeopardy music. lol

ok so the bottom leaves on 2 of the clones started to curl and twist im not sure if this is normal or what but on the big one they where starting to die so i snipped them off which is kinda worryin me as there are no roots yet and that is less for the newgrowth to feed off of. but they seemed to be dead anyway so hopfully i didnt do more damage. on the smaller one i left the leaves on cuz they didnt seem as far gone and i wanted to give them as much food as possible. the new growth on the big one seemed to be closing up is that a problem? any help would be greatly appreciated.

ok this morning i went to check on my girls and the soil is lookin great she is so happy!!! and that makes me happy. but someone please tell me whats wrong wit my baby girl! just woke up to find her like this this morn some of the roots look healthy the rest are dangling some look like the tips have dried out.but it still looks bright green. the only thing i did was sit it in a bowl of its old nute bath while it changed its main nute bowl to flowering nutes. i tried to make sure the bowl had just enuff water in it to cover some roots and leave some to get air. it set out no longer than 30-45mins just time to give it a good clean and get the water ph'ed and nutes changed. she's not very happy with me right now :frown:

sry for the lines in the pic for some reason the cam i can use doesn't do well with hps. i've gotta get a sd card reader so i can use my good digital cam.
