Stealth grow

[kilojay619]

So this is my 1st attempt ever at growing mj indoors. Unfortunately my current living situation requires men to grow stealth. Mj goes for $80 1/4oz in my area and i have spent about $100 in materials including the seeds which sounds expensive but i figured eventually ill make my money back even if its not on the 1st grow.
Grow box is roughly 24"tall x15x15" very small so I am going to be attempting lst. I have (2)13 watt cheap ass ebay leds on the side and (2)13 watt cfl on top
Theres a small cpu fan blowing across the plants and a diy charcole scrubber fan up top
I planted 2 auto seeds in each tub. I think the strain was big/fast,strong/fast or something like that But here is what I got after soaking the seeds overnight in water then 3 days in the dirt.
thanks for checking out my journal

DAY 10

so after a week above ground heres what I got.

Not much happening so far but There HAS been growth so im thinking the environment must be ok. I plan on running 18on 6off for the entire grow since I got 3 autos and 1 reg. I have no fed fertilizers yet and havent needed to water much only every 3 days and mayber only 1oz per sprout .this is a stealth grow on a budget so if I get anything smokable im happy and its already been such a learning experience.

you shoulda probably gone with photoperiod rather than auto's just because you would have more control over the size they are when they finish seeing as you have such a small space, but still cool grow, hope it goes well man im subbed

thanks for the advice ,I will definately be doing photos next time. I thought these autos would grow a lot faster than they are but their really taking their time but at least their not dying so thats good

Day 15
So I lost one of the autos looks like it just burned . I also taken out the 2 cfl bulbs and replaced them with a 138 watt led. I will keep a close eye on them for now on. I plan to use fertilizer 1/2 strength the next watering.

day 22 so o have replaced the ufo led with 2 cfl's it was almost 100f with the ufo led. Trust me LEDs DO produce heat I also added a Diy co2 system which is running off of yeast and sugar

DAY 31
The temps have steadily been above 90° with the lights on since the time the plants have sprouted so last week i added a diy co2 and it seems to be helping I have fin that hurt a little and kept one auto and one photo im currently still running a 18/6 on the lights but have changes the cfl's from color temp 5500k to 2900k. I see no way in hell how the auto will be done within 30 more days which would be eight weeks from seed to finish it's looking more like it's going to take at least another 50 days but I will keep you updated so stay tuned. although I know this may not be the most exciting or best plan to grow from the most experience grower one thing I will guarantee you is that I will follow through on this grow from start to finish regardless of the results good bad or ugly all failures will be posted unlike a lot of other grows that start off Great but then when things begin to fail all of a sudden the user stop posting I guarantee you that will not happen here I'm going to finish what I started
