never in my life have i ever even attempted to grow a plant (including fungi). and here i find myself starting out. my basic setup are as listed. doing it indoors btw ![Mr. Green :mrgreen: :mrgreen:](/styles/smilies/icon_mrgreen.gif)
1. Grow tent : 5 x 5 gorilla tent
2. Grow light : 800w 7 spectrum LED grow light (got it off AliExpress) - details, mmmm![Dunce :dunce: :dunce:](/styles/smilies/dunce.gif)
3. Soil : MiracleGrow potting mix
4. Fertilizer : very diluted Miracid from MiracleGrow
5. Inline fan : otw
6. Using a normal Table fan to help with air circulation in the grow tent
7. Seeds : 1 jack black, 1 strawberry blue , 3 royal queen critical (all freebies from herbies)
pictures posted are 1 and a half weeks post germinating, except strawberry blue which came in a little late at 4 days post germination. (end 2/3/2014)
image in the grow tent:
a few questions if i may:
1. the stems of the indica plants are pretty weak, any idea why? leaves are all nice and green. stems are pretty long though.![Confused :confused: :confused:](/styles/smilies/confused.png)
2. i placed the led light about 2 feet away from the plants. any thought on the matter?
3. where i'm from, we dont have any fancy soils (as u can see miraclegrow is the most fancy
), so i'm lost on fertilizer options.
4. any comments are welcomed. ( suggestions, pointing out any mistakes i'm doing, etc etc are most welcomed)
