    Water questions

    Thanks man! Cleared up a few things. Wish there was just one set in stone way of growing this shit! Lots of conflicting info floating around the interweb. After reading this though i might skip my plans for an RO system. Ill probably just keep using tap out of my carbon filter.

    The big one was planted 10/23/13 and the others a few days later. But they were all in jiffy cubes first. Its not showing any signs of yellowing or anything yet. Wonder when i need to start thinking about feeding?

    checked in on them this morning and the temp was 88 and rh was 30%. I stuck another thermometer in there to see how accurate they are. Also left the door to that room open to get some cooler air.

    selfmedicator462's first grow!

    Well i added 3 more 23w CFLs. Mounted my fan to the wall and "ducted" my humidifier. Also potted up my jiffy pellets to cups. They are droopy now.....i hope thats just cause they got watered. I can really see the stem growth after i added the fan a few days ago. The extra bulbs pushed my temp to...
