Check my journal and see how easily you can grow nice buds in a tent ;)
And those are actually becoming really cheap compared to couple of years ago.

those things are new so they are just popping out of the ground, no big deal

They should straighten out in a few days and start heading to the light and standing up right

That light will be good for a few weeks but you are going to need something more heavy duty to get them to flower

But you are still at a month or so a way so start saving

this is exactly what i was just wondering about, cause my first plant just sprouted and is doing the same thing right now.

Here are the most recent pics of my babies :]

I'm at the stage of deciding if I want to do any training? LST/Super cropping .

It is my first grow so I'm a bit hesitant. I'm also considering getting a 400w HPS for a better end product .

Did have some more questions if anyone would care to chime in .. !

The reddening of the roots ( I notice some are very green and others are red and hairy?. Is this due to stress?

I try to keep the temps between 72-80 degress. The highest it has gone is 82. But since then I have made an intake system for cool air.

Also if you have any Comments/Suggestions/Tips (Greatly Appreciated :D )


Time for a bowl of my new Orange Kush :D

Here's a pic of that (not grown by me)



on my line of clothing (KREAM)Kush Rules Everything Around Me !

Put it in your closet. Growing under a sink is a bad idea, Due to its a sink, Lol. This light looks pretty good if your looking toward updating, And it's in your price range. http://cgi.ebay.com/400-watt-Electronic-HPS-MH-Hydroponic-Grow-Light-400w_W0QQitemZ330362550325QQcmdZViewItemQQptZLH_DefaultDomain_0?hash=item4ceb247835&_trksid=p3286.c0.m14

People grow pretty dank in tents, But people grow very well indoors too. If you do what everyone says, You're yield will be great :)

Well I moved them from under my sink lol, so now they are in my tent (two of them) I've had them on an 18-6 schedule, I think I'm gonna gradually increase light(sound like a good idea?) So I'll have there sched be 20-4 continuing and maybe even make it like 21-3 for maximum growth.

So ya I think I will get the light from these guys then, its very reasonable. www.gyosupplies.com

So , from the pics, is it too early? too late to do any FIMing or topping / supercropping?

So I am unsure if there are pre signs of sex (I havent switched to 12/12 yet) I'm also curious do I have to buy more bulbs for flowering, or can I use the ones I have (6 5000k CFL's (1,500 Lumens each) .

I hear 2700 for flowering.

I'm also working on dispersing light a little better. As this is my first grow I've been doing a lot of reading but each person does it differently.

Is having the lights only above decreasing yield? and what are some methods to get lights where you want them lol.. I do have clamps. (x2)

Kind of limited on space though. :roll:

Here are some pics.

I'm not sure if what I'm seeing is male preflowers or what, but its gettin kinda bulky/bally in the armpits of the branches.

I'm also unsure of which nutes to get and when to start them.


15 more minutes till blunt sesh! :mrgreen:

any feedback? Help a beginner out :] . I have no clue if I am doing this right, just been going along with this book ' the cannabis growers bible ' by jorge cervantes. I also have to admit I have not been thorough or routine with the light schedule in the times, but as for the length I always make sure they get at least 12 hours or more of darkness/light. Still have not added any nutes at all, but was hoping to get Fox Farm - Tiger Bloom . But what about Super Thrive? Anyone ever heard or used this, any comments/reccommendations?

About to get some flowering pics once the lights are back on! I think its been about a week since start of flowering. Also in the process of getting Tiger Bloom. Is it ok to start nutes during flowering?

So, found 3 seeds out of a sack, and all 3 are FEMALES :D! woot woot! I've been told I have a green thumb as well.

For all you new viewers a little recap.

Setup

2 x Chemdog 91 I believe.
6x1,500 lumens out put
3x2x5'4 tent

Ingredients used :

Veg : Jobes Tomato spikes (has NPK (minimal though) ;] )

Flower : FoxFarm Tiger Bloom

Veg Time : 1 month 2 days Ended on 10/07

Started 12/12 cycle next day.

Oh, and I have one other female under my sink doing an experiment on conditions. Started flowering at same time.

Using 2 (1,500 lumens) srry cant remember wattage right now.

Also I havent switched my bulbs, so they are still 5500K. Would it be better to switch down to 2700k?


Hope you like the pictures! :leaf:bongsmiliebongsmilie:eyesmoke:
