currently no exhaust set up, have a couple fans blowing out and circulating the air. 
Two days ago I started buffering some coco for the seedlings. My plan is to use coco in the solo cups, then once they are rooted we’ll move them into a local soil mix

will go solo cup -> 1gal soil -> 5gal soil 

using Earth Juice nutrients

side note tent is in garage so won’t need to worry about light leak however I’m hoping Mother Nature will be good to me and not get too cold for the babies. 

Dropped the seeds into water at midnight est,

woke up 7 hours later only one(of the Sharpei) hasn’t sank so went ahead and transfer them to paper in baggie

Doesn’t look like much has happened yet, the coco is buffered and ready for my seedling, will check up in 24 hours

By 1/2 10pm cst both of my Sharpei’s popped
Currently, 1/3 8pm I put the Alpen Gleaux 1 and Sharpei 1 & 2 into solo cups with buffered coco. Ambient temps are 75.
the Alpen Gleaux 2 and Hindu Kush have yet to popped.
Only coming issue is in my tent, temps drop to high 50’s(f) at night. Considering moving hps in early for some heat or perhaps vegging inside then flowering outside, in a month or so I assume temps will be warmer.
havent tracked rh so far.

Alpen Gleaux 1 was left without my veg light a little too long and stretched quite a bit

Moved all the babies to the tent, 6-8 inches below the light.

hindu Kush and bbk working on 1st node 

cleaned out 12 gal shoe box with bleach and water, got a niiiice rinse then dried

2 bags of my super soil went into the box,  used 1 gal of tap water to hydrate and start the microbe process. I took hand watering to the next lever by literally using my hand to disperse trickles of water for a nice even distribution. 
closed up the bin and put in a low light area

1/18 8pm 65f 30ml

alpen Gleaux has a couple roots popping out the bottom

i will probably wait until 3rd node is starting to come out for the transplant, giving the soil enough time to really activate.
