First Grow!

[Murmur420]

Yeah post it up! It was really helpful.

I'll be posting some new pictures soon, I added another light. I also think my plant has a nitrogen deficiency due to some yellowing leaves and lower fan leaves have purple stems, but there isn't much I can do about it, as I don't have many supplies and I have a complete lack of budget.

your plant is from seed or clone?

 

[Murmur420]

Thanks yoitsslobo. Will do.

And this plant is from seed.

 

[Murmur420]

Here's a few pictures of the plant as of today. I've added a second 13W bulb and I can already notice faster growth.
I also tied it down yesterday, to conserve as much space as possible and get better light coverage.



Tell me what you think.

Yeah, I guess the light got too close. I'm not using nutes so i don't think it would be that?

Thanks DaCDaC! Hopefully I'll pick up a timer for my lights and put it into flowering soon.

 

[DaCDaC]

Timers are at Lowes for like 8 bucks or grab a "brinks" timer for 10$ at wallyworld

Nice plants chb444220, they do look pretty similar.

I'm just posting up some pictures of my box, the light is hanging from some string. Keep in mind, I cant put holes in this box so everything is tied to something outside the box.

The Y splitter wont fit on the current socket im using because of the reflective hood. Although i might find an alternative. Advice?

heyy watsup?? yeaa our plants do look very much alike.. even now. its good to see that your plants are coming along great!! and i LOVE the setup you have tho with the light.. i think it will work fine. just so you know i am NOOOOO expert.. lol. ive done ALOT ALOT ALOT of studying on them tho.. but your setup looks fine.. i cant get the Y-Socket to fit on mine either..

but if you have like 6 bucks.. you should look at wal-mart for one of those clamp lights that i have. im actually thinking about getting a few more and taking out the other lamps and JUST using them. they have them in 150 watt max and the slightly bigger (and more expensive) ones are 300 watt maxx.. not that you can really find a 300 watt CFL anywhere.. well besides online.. but the clamp light has its own reflector.. and it also has a clamp... (obviously) lol.. and that would help you out too since you said you cant put holes in your box.. you could just clamp it down on something..

do you have any type of circulation goin on in there?? maybe get a little fan at hang it above your box if possible..

and if you can find mylar (ive had trouble finding it.. i still have none) you could line the box with it.. or you could use shiny plastic paper.. im goin to walgreens/cvs to look for shiny silver wrapping paper to line my box with.. right now im using tinfoil... i know everyone sais not to use it.. but ive seen plenty of other people grow from start to finish with tinfoil lining.. but if you dont want to use tinfoil.. you can also buy those reflectors for your car windshield...? you know what im talkin about.. i went to Big Lots.. and spent 3 bucks on one.. and its pretty good deal. and last resort... if you have a basement... go in there.. and rip off the outer layer of any excess insulation.. it looks kinda like tinfoil.. but make sure (if you do this) to take all the insulation of soo your not scratching like crazy.. lol.

but if you look at my thread.. i have a new box with 6 new plants im growing.. and i lined the box with tinfoil.. and theyre taking off!! they look good and theyre only 5 and 6 days old.. im puting pics up now actually.. but good luck with your plants.. i just started mine on a 12-12 cycle mon. night/tues. morning... (last week) soo im hopin within the next week they will show sex!!!! well ive deff be droppin by and checkin on your thread. keep us updated man.

 

[Murmur420]

Thanks for all the advice and stuff guys.
Sorry for not updating my thread, Ive been busy and such.

Unfortunately, I have bad news.
I put the plant into flowering and it started to show sex. This is my first time sexing a plant, and I'm like 100% sure its a male.

Here are some pictures so you guys can see. Its really a shame. Great plant for a 13 watt bulb.

 

[SmokeyMcPuff]

I hate to tell you this but your plant is male.

 

[SmokeyMcPuff]

It looks good for a 13 watt grow. Maybe next time you'll get a girl.

 

[Murmur420]

I hate to tell you this but your plant is male.

Yeah I know its a male. but thanks.

Hopefully I'll get a nice girl next time.

 

[hawaiianDirtBag]
