morning kev and all.
well thats my plants 14 days into flower today and lookin pretty good, all 4 are bushy and around 2 1/2' to 3' tall . just emptied, cleaned and refilled all their reservoirs and gave them a 3/4 strength feed and a little tidy-up. leaves lookin very healthy, the black jack is definetly beginning to show its sativa characteristics. lots of pre-flowers on the rest thats gonna become good budsites soon. i'll definetly be sticking to dwc in the future, the growth rate is far superior to soil and the workload is easier. my other 3 in soil have been re-potted, put back into veg and are sitting in a mates grow so i dunno how there doing just now. may nip in and have a wee look later. if i can get this fucking camera working i'll throw up sum pics soon.

looks beautiful, how much roughly would it cost to convert an old cupboard into a nice little growing space?

If you haven't seen The Sunset Limited, you might wanna do yourself the favor. Especially if you like philosophical conversations. The movie is 90 minute dialog between a devote Christian and an academic, discussing the possibility of a God.
The movie has a lot of good moments, but the soliloquy at the end by Tommy Lee Jones made my skin curl and my mind race.
Watch this scene when you can, Tommy Lee gives a stirring performance.

if its your first grow i'd recomend soil. it has less potential problem and its a good way to learn what the plant really does and needs. hydro's easy enuff but if your air pumps fucks up or u over nute your plants its abit more hassle to correct it.yeah ill probably use an old Victorian one, its a shame but what a space

Those pics are taken with a 5mp point n shoot job i bought about 6 years ago
I don't trim or anything, just let them do their thing.Well there are two cupboards in my room. My flowering one (smaller) has a 600w HPS which was about £130 with cooltube, £120 for extraction and filtration, and then when you start out, seems to be a never ending money vacuum, i'd say get £400-500 together for your first grow.
I'd go sol as it's more forgiving, but once you have the knowledge, look into hydro, it an be fun with good results, and by fun i might largely just mean there are not big pots and bags of soil lying aroundyeah ill probably use an old Victorian one, its a shame but what a space

you cant go wrong with hydro for 2st id say coco or rockwool but rockwool id sayyeah ill probably use an old Victorian one, its a shame but what a space
al u need is a potting tray and sum pots dril a hole in the bottom at one and and put on a ever so slight slop for the run of bak into the rez and job done ur own hydro system
just remember NOT to overwater stik ur finger in the rockwool to about a inch if its wet its ok if dry then water til u get runoff thats it soon as u see water out of bottom of pot its enough
