    I've got two CFLs on that sprout above, and two more on my other sprout. They are 26 watts/1700 lumens each. Thanks BT DT. That was very helpful.

    Questions about my Sprouts [Pics]

    Sweet. Thanks a lot guys. Since my plants are growing bigger, do you think the two CFL's I have on each will be too little light? Should I get some more bulbs?

    Questions about my Sprouts [Pics]

    My sprouts are about 1 1/2 to 2 inches tall right now. I'm watering everyday when the soil gets dried out and leaving them under CFLs for 18-24 hours a day. One is looking okay but its got a purple stem (I need to start pH'ing my water) and the other is a little crappy looking. So here are some...

    What wrong with my little sprout?

    This is one of my sprouts. This is my other sprout that is two days younger. So why is my older sprout looking so drab compared to my younger one? Its leaves are yellowish and haven't even opened or stretched out yet. Is this normal for the first few days? Or is it just a dud plant...

    Is my seedling doomed?

    Yesterday, when I was moving lights for watering, one of my seedlings in a cup tipped over and half the soil spilled out. I could see the root stretching pretty good so I was heartbroken. I stood the sprout back up and scooped the soil back into the cup around the root pretty good. Do you think...

    Question about Burlap Sac method

    I have a spot in my basement when I can grow them inside. And yeah, I have a fan for circulation air. I just need to know how much light these new sprouts need. I have 4 of those CFLs and currently I have two of them on my sprout constantly except for when watering. But one of my other seeds...

    Question about Burlap Sac method

    Good deal. I can't wait until my seedlings start growing... When I'm ready to transplant, should I fill the sacs completely full? And do you lay them sideways and cut a hole in the side to plant? Or just set them straight up and plant in the top?

    Question about Burlap Sac method

    Shaman, when you made the thread about planting in the burlap sacs, you didn't specify whether you plant the seeds straight into the sac or grow them inside for a while and transplant into the sacs. I've got three seeds planted and only one has sprouted (its only been 3 days though.) I'm...

    CFL Question

    I'm going to get some Compact Flourescent lightbulbs today and I just want to know can those be screwed into any type of lamp? I have a few desk lamps that are the right height for my seedlings and they say not to use a bulb over 60 watts. Can I put 24 or 27 watt CFL's in there or is that not...

    Prepping my Site

    Awesome. I don't want the hassle of trying to hide big pots around the yard just for them to get some sun. Too bad though. Today it was damn windy and one of my cups blew over and all my soil blew away. So now I'm down to two plants...should've been prepared for that.

    Prepping my Site

    Alright. Thanks guys. I'll keep that in mind. Here's something for you: I've got my seed planted in party cups right now (you know the size im talking about.) When should I look to transplant and how should I do it? Should I go from the cups to a big pot? Or should I go from the cups straight...

    Just planted my germinated seeds...

    I got three good seeds in cups. I have one more good seed but not enough potting soil for a cup, so either I'm gonna get some more soil tomorrow or just put that one straight into the ground. The last seeds was kinda gray and very small so I tossed it. Thanks for your quick replies guys. This...

    Just planted my germinated seeds...

    ...so do they need light on them right away? I put them in about a 1/2 inch down and watered them a tad. But its 11:07 pm so they won't get sunlight until tomorrow morning. Do they need light on them now? Or is it fine to just wait and set them out tomorrow morning? OR, should I wait until...
