Hello friends. Back in February I built my first grow room in the garage. Needed it to look like a giant closet. So far it has worked just fine. Not completely light proof but i'm not worried cause the lights have been on 24 hours. My first set of clones was passed onto me as well as two mothers who have been put out in the backyard due to previous problems (mold,mites).

The whole unit is 8' high 8' long and 3' wide. Broken into two rooms. Veg room with a T-5 2x24 watt light. Flower room with 1x600 HPS. I had the two mothers and about 12 clones in the small veg room for 9 weeks. Once the clones looked well rooted I planted them in soil and let them stay in the veg room for a few weeks. Now I have 7 plants growing in the Flower room on 24 hours of light from the 600 HPS. They are all about 13"-15" tall and just about ready for a light switch. Should I go from 24 hours to a 18/6 and then a 12/12?

I have attached pictures of what the plants look as of today 5/1. I'm new at this so Ihope I haven't been rushing things.

Last week I just started to add nutrients. BC Boost(2 tsp) and BC Grow(1 tsp) and B-1(5 ml) mixed with a gallon of water. I've done this twice so far. Noticed leaves were curling up.

I have the light 2 feet above the plants and the plants spread out over 3 feet. Too much ligtht and that's why the leaves are up? Not sure.

Using Fox Farm Ocean and Black Gold pearlite. I think the Ph has been steady but i've only tested the water and not the soil.

Any tips or advice please feel free to share.

I am growing OG Kush #18 and Headband as well right now. From Reserva Privada? I also have a Chem Dawg that a friend gave to me. I just planted 2 OG#18 and 1 Headband in 5 gallon buckets of FoxFarm ocean forest today and I have 1 OG#18 and 1 Headband sprouted in Rock wool for a hydroponic drip feeder system. Also have a Sharksbreath and a Coletrain and about a foot and a half in 5 gallon buckets. The Chem Dawg was just transplanted into a 5 Gallon today and given its first dose of veg nutes! I will definitely be following your grow and see how they turn out. How come you chose those strains if you don't mind me asking?
