Great job so far!
Some opinions-
1. I would put a "homemade CO2 dispenser" near your plants
2. I would bring the lights more closer
3. Get more reflective material

i saw that LED at a hydro shop for 100 bucks.. how much did u get it for?? how does it work???? lookin good bro rep
I just stopped by your thread I really like the setup.
That LED you posted is a phenomonal light. I would check on HTG Ebay, I got my MH for a great deal and they sell the full spectrum UFO LED that is by far my favorite, and hopefully my next venture

The LED i have is a one spectrum low watt nothing fancy just some variety

I have more Mylar just need staples and a staple gun haha.
I wanna bring them closer its just that MH is putting off so much heat im kind of afraid to you know, with that bulb i think the distance is a foot if im not mistaken?? any thoughts??
you talking like a Co2 tank on a flow valve???

Until you have a chance to install another fan you could probably turn off any lights other than the MH. She's pretty small still and looks like she's below the rim of the pot so only light from directly above is being very beneficial so far. For side lights it looks like you have a very good setup and should be an interesting grow for sure. Also, are you planning to fill in some more soil around the stem once she gets a little bit taller if there is space before the first set of leaves? You left a lot of room in that pot unused by starting so low down. Very stealth though, great job keeping the light and sound to a minimum! I'm subbed.

well I was planning on keeping her in there then moving to 1 gallon pot. I didnt know i could add soil to the top, well i mean I didnt think or even read about it. Is it a good idea? or should i just wait till when i move her to her final home?

Thanks for stickin around should be fun.

If you're going to up-pot then it's not a big deal. The only real benefits to backfilling soil at the top are it gives a little extra root space if needed and can help stabilize the stem if there's much initial stretching. I normally do this for veggies since their stems are generally a little less stable and the soil I use tends to sink in a bit over time anyway, but it can be used for cannabis just as easily. When you up-pot just bury the stem a little deeper in and fill the pot a bit closer to the rim if can, not a big deal but a little thing that could help.

whats happenin james.

like the set up. got some questions for ya. what are your temps looking like? how are your fans set up? i plan to grow a dresser box and have been looking at alot of peoples box's and trying to get input. i would think that the mh would be more than enough for that seedling. the other lights are adding heat. looking forward to seeing this grow. +rep

peace

Whats goin on crazytrain?

Im not 100% on the temps im sure in the day they are pushin 80s at night 70-75. I got one exhaust fan in the top left corner mounted inside the box vented out....(heat rises sorta thing) i need to add 2-3 more intake fans so i can close the box. as of right now i have the door oiff and an oscillating fan providing airflow. The MH is DEFF enough for her but i want to make sure none of the fan leaves are blocking her fallopian tubes ya dig. ;) the two big CFLS barely put off any heat so i know those are gravy, its that MH putting out the temps...

but for sure stick around thanks for the rep, pull up a lawnchair
