    My first closet grow

    My HPS is still not working, I'm waiting on a refurbished unit. I transplanted my babies today, I gave them about 400-500% more root room. I think that may have been part of the leaf problem. I will keep them under the cfl's for another week or so until I get the HPS light going. They were...

    My first closet grow

    Hopefully it will speed up the flowering. Here's a few pics from this morning. Yesterday, I carefully cut off 2 buds for a sample. Hopefully it will be dry enough to enjoy during Sunday football even though my Bears are shitting the bed. I am hoping for a few more weeks of decent weather...

    My first closet grow

    I could not get a response from the ebay seller. After consulting a friend I ordered a refurb from an online shop. They worked great for my friend. As for the ebay seller, just one of those things that happens I guess. I have 180 into it including shipping, and if I return it, I pay...

    My first closet grow

    I just tried to hook up my 400 watt HPS from eBay and it does not work. I can hear the ballast hum, but the light will not turn on. Am I doing something wrong? The bulb did not screw in easily, but I did not force it either. I used cloth gloves and was very careful to keep the bulb spotless...

    My first closet grow

    Here are a few more shots taken this morning. Hopefully we get another coupla weeks before frost. Last night was very rainy. Weather has been very nice for this time of year. I was thinking of digging up one of the smallest ones and putting it under my HPS before it freezes. Has anybody had...

    My first closet grow

    Should I cut off the ugly leaves or leave them alone?

    My first closet grow

    I went in to check on my babies 20 minutes ago and my fan had quit working. It was 90+ degrees in there. I gave them all a drink and got a new fan working. I am worried that I topped these too early, but I think they look healthy. Most of them have 4 main branches now. The 2 on the left are...

    Welcome New Members!

    Hi. I am a newbie from the upper mid-west who has been reading everyones posts for weeks now. I am working on my 1st outdoor and 1st indoor grows ever. This site has been tremendously helpful, especially in sexing the plants and feeding them. My plan is to quit buying bud. I have been...

    My first closet grow

    Here are a few more shots from today. They sure do smell good when I give them a light squeeze and bury my nose in it. I decided not to do a separate journal for these because they are almost done, but I may create one this winter out of boredom. I just picked up some bricked up schwag to...

    My first closet grow

    Here are some outdoor pics taken today. 3 or 4 of these are from some very decent homegrown bagseed. 1 or 2 are from some low-mid grade commercial bagseed. Thanks to RIU, the males were all removed immediately. :clap: I should have at least 2 - 3 more weeks of decent weather. Hopefully all...

    My first closet grow

    Here is a better pic of my closet set up. I finally added some hanging hooks to hold it out of my way when watering or watching.

    My first closet grow

    Here are some of the little girls visiting my neighborhood. Hopefully it will stay warm for them. I have just started feeding them molasses. They are starting to have a wonderful scent. Thankfully I had started with 11, because 6 were male. At one point, I thought they were all going to be...

    My first closet grow

    Sweet. Thanks. I hope this works. Does anyone know what these spots on the leaves are? Could it be fertilizer burn?

    My first closet grow

    I just want to thank everyone here for all of your help. I have been reading avidly for over a month. I have decided to produce my own stash for the quality, and also I have wasted enough money to buy a house or 2 on this stuff in my life so far. I am about 2.5 weeks in on my 1st indoor grow...
