    As most of you know, I've been going through some financial difficulties. I was on the verge of losing my house so I cut down everything I had. With everything the way it was, I didn't want to have the stress of a grow going along with it. Now I'm not officially in the clear yet, but I'm confident it will happen soon so it's time to start a new grow.


    I'm starting 20 seeds in Roots 707 soil. I haven't ran soil in over 4 years so it's going to be a learning process. I've depleted my seed stock and am down to:


    SoCal Seed Co - GDawg (7) --G13 (Airborn) x Chemdawg male


    CaliConnect - Alien Vacation (3) -- Hawaiian Sativa x Alien Kush


    Alien Genetics - Ewoke (3) -- Albert Walker x Tahoe Alien f1


    Unknown Breeder - Sea Witch (7) -- White Widow x Grendel


    Ended up running my WSC X FAU


    If these don't sprout for me, all I have left is the White Strawberry Cough x Fire Alien Urkle that I made last year. No cash for new gear and no access to clones has put me in a jam genetics wise, but hopefully it all works out for me.


    For nutes and additives, I'm going to run the Useless formula along with some AACTs. I have the line up of OGbiowar bene's, some EWC and some Roots Guano for my teas. I'd like to run completely organic since I'm in soil, but this run is on a budget so I'm working with what I've got.


    No pics yet, but I'll update as soon as they sprout.

    Really, my biggest worry is getting them to sprout. My last sprouting attempt was a disaster so I'm kind of feeling like I was back when my wife went into labor. Got the nervous father pace going on.

    I sowed them directly in the soil. If I don't see anything in the next few days I'll take them out and do the paper towel method. I figure my best bet was to mimic nature as much as possible.

    Like ridding a bike!! Switching to organic may require a few brain cells to kick in but you'll have buds hanging in no time. Best of luck!!!

    Growing's like breathing. Once you start you gotta keep on doing it.

    So I ended up having to go with my backup beans. I now have 22 WSC x FAU seedlings above ground and 7 hopefuls from the seeds I originally planted.

    I have the stuff to run teas, but as far as nutes go, it's still up in the air. It all depends on how much cash I have to spend at the time. I know I'm going to need at least another bag of soil when it's time to up pot everything.

    Not much to show right now, but here are my 24 seedlings. All of them are WSC x FAU. Should be a nice selection to pick through.

    You're on you way. You can scratch up a few bucks for some decent nutes and we know it'll pay off. It's hard to get it out of your system once you've seen your labors produce. There'll be buds hanging by the end of the summer. Good luck dude!

    Picked up a few clones, a couple White Rhino, a Bubblicous and a Sage. I'm going to give them a few more days under the dome before I put in pots. I'm going to brew up a tea in a day or two for the seedlings next watering. I'm planning on up potting them next week. Every seedling look to be fat leaf indicas.
