Day 1 - seeds are planted! Setup looks a little wierd right now because i was having heat problems but that should be solved tomorrow , its ok now tho its staying 74 - 81°f , also not sure if my temp gauge is correct because its a few years old , but ill be ordering a new temp and rh meter soon. Ill make an update when theres any charges with the plants or the setup. Ps ik your not supposed to use clear pots but its just in the meantime , they wont be in there for long.

Whatever ur nute feed is right now try increasing the nitrogen solution 0.3-0.5ml each times for a couple feeds until u correct the problem, i wouldnt go above 10mls total nute supplements in 2 liters of water and dont do any large shifts, small adjustments till u find ur strains prefered dose, other then that yea they look great!

Please make your own thread , your not supposed to go into random journals and ask random questions that have nothing to do with the grow.

I wouldn't use clear pots next time around. Also wondering if you have light leak from your fan above or port below? Don't wanna Hermie in flower.... Also a heads up that CFL bulb's are kinda likely to make "airy" buds. That being said you can still get good smoke. Best of luck to your grow.

Good looking set up, it kind of reminds me of my first grow box. One thing you may want to look into are 63w actual draw cfl's once I threw three of them into the box I was pulling about 2 zips out of a 2sq ft space consistently. Though, they do tend to run the temps up in the grow space without proper ventilation. All in all, seems like you're off to a good start!

Clear pots are only temporary , and theres an extremely small , dim light coming out the fan ports and i have made the intake lightproof. And im aware that cfls arent the best option but there the only option for me as of now. Thanks for having a look

Day 3 - going to water lightly tonight just to get all 6 on the same cycle since i planted 2 seeds a day late. Anyways , over night 3 more seedlings popped up. Also put a tub in to catch runoff. The temps staying 78 - 82 with the lights on and stays a steady 75 when there off , does this sound okay?

That sounds fine, i would just water a bit at a time with a spray bottle at this stage so u have no chance of drowning them

I would def suggest cloth pots, much more breathable and cooler for the roots, less chance of waterlogged soil, might have to water a bit more thats all
