NickT 2017 Cream Fatalii Coco

First glog I've ever done so bear with me. I'm growing quite a few thing this year but due to space constraints and an upcoming move, I decided to only document one of the varieties I am 100% going to hang on to. I use the paper towel and zip lock on top of a heat mat, I typically use bottled water on the paper towels but I have also used diluted chamomile tea and just regular tap water but honestly I can't tell a difference as long as the moisture and heat are there.
 
First sign of life, thanks cone9 for the seeds!

I then transfer to course coco coir

and then under the high output fluorescent and fan

I used General Hydroponics flora series with Cal-Mag and a SUPERThrive flush every Friday. After they have a couple weeks under the light I start hardening them off and then transplant to New Earth potting soil w/ Lady Bug fertilizer. This is the first year doing the Coco and hydro nutes and I gotta say it really speeds things up. Open to any suggestions and I hope everyone has a great season!
 
Nice start, Nick

I will b following along.
 
So far it's going really good. Not surprising considering I picked up most of my info from you, thanks again for all the help.
 
It looks like you're going to put them in soil once they get going. I haven't tried that yet. Are you going to continue with the hydro nutes after that?

Wasn't planning on continuing with the hydro nutes, I tried it on a Carolina Reaper earlier on and after it got past the transplant shock it seemed to thrive on regular organic fertilizer. 
 
Could only get one past the helmet head and even then it was a little stunted at first but it's grown out pretty good since then
