Grow Room: 8x8x8 cement room. HPS 100watt, 150watt CFL, both mounted in a sheet metal reflector bright white. Lights are about 10 inches above plants tops as of right now. 1 smaller scale oscilating fan on high very close to plants. 1 Big box fan hanging about 2 feet away angle down at light fixture and plants on speed 2 its a 3 speed fan blowing pretty hard! ( i believe it helps stem and branch growth) lights on 24/7 till i hear other wise with my setup. haha :hump:

Feeding: I have 3 different strains i believe getting different solutions of food water.
solution 1: tap water set out over 24 hours to dry chlorine.
solution 2: same water dry 24 hrs and 50 % dillute on mircale grow general purpose 12 4 8 to what it says to feed. 1/3 cup to 2 gallons and misting on leaves and stems. so i put about 1/2 that in there roughly and mixed into the 2 gallons of ghetto distilled water.
solution 3. 200% what the shit calls for. about a cup full to nearly 2 gallons of the distilled water extra leaf and stem feeding and keeping the soil pretty moist.

Soil: Hyponex soil 1 bag, perfect mix 9 month feeding soil 1 bag, 1 bag earth worm and other castings mixed together and soaked about a week in solution 3 misted over every 24hrs and stirred up.

Co2 with sugar water and yeast in a few 1 gallon jugs with hole in top shake while feeding and fans off usually about 15 - 20 mins while im in there. there every once in awhile each day say 3 times a day shake them up real good

all roots after day 6 are coming thru 12 oz cans and 1/2 gal pots. trans planting all 42 plants into 3 gal plus pots on day 7 after soil drys up a bit for a safer move

please look pics over and sorry for the blur the cam sucks...leave all the comments to help me... i catch on quick my mommy owns the local flower gift shop!! haha thanks! pics are in my gallery thing and i am going to try and post them there... thank you all.

WTF holy shit dude its not oregano or basil, you need to seperate all of these if you can, and do it now before its going to be serious hassle seperating roots

Nongreenthumb: That was just an experiment and to post on here with some good laughs. it was a smiley face that i really didnt expect to grow and was the tester for the 200%mix. i am doing that today and scared from seeing all the roots dangling from the bottom drain wholes.! I will try serperating them if not i am just going to keep them and smash them in this 10 gal container i have and 200% them for experiment and try some other things to them like super cropping and just random things really to try and prove some theroies upside down... if possible. no big deal. thanks for the info though.

ozstone: Thanks for the info. i just went and got a timer for the lights and will try the 18-6 which cant hurt the electric bill haha. i will post new pics in my gallery and prolly here atleast weekly as i am super proud of them!!!



Thanks you for the replies i appreciate and and looking forward to more help along the way...since i cant ask my mom too much haha
