Hey dude, I envy your setup. You really make it look like its easy, can you try to explain the whole fan thing blowing through an MH or HID lighting system? I know they are air cooled so you can just use a special fan and blow air through ducting right? And then you vent to the bathroom to remove the heat from it completely correct? Im really really new at this and yes i know, im going to search right now for more info on this website, but your setup makes everything seem simple. Please explain, by the way nice setup, the white widow is gonna be Fuck tastic. Im buying a bubbleponics very soon, but im only able to grow with CFL's for now, which is fine becasue i will use them later for seedlings, ect.

fureelz.....i started them in rockwool on a window sil...once they popped i put them in the tub

have you heard of the grow faq??? ...it has so much useful info. thats where i learned how to make my tub...as far as my closet setup is concerned...i just kinda winged it...i bought the ducting at home depot along with the metal flashing that i have stuck to my wall..basically i just run...fan to light to fart fan....
i also readjusted my grow room...basically just flipped it opposite side...but i get better ventilation from that side...check my temps and humidity out...like a fuckin rainforest
i got my air cooler off ebay...shipped for 92.00... yesterday i was at walmar and saw one for 80 and it came with four ice packs.....so just look around...but walmart here in texas has a good one for eighty

hello my fellow lone star grower! this grow looks pretty cool. did you go with all feminized seed? i'm gonna have to agree with whoever it was, that MH light is WAY overkill for starting out the kids. i would recommend starting under CFL. (then again i'm also a CFL grower and have nothing bad to say about them haha) just subscribed! +rep keep up the good work. each day is a learning experience.
here's a fellow growers journal, he ran into some interesting mishaps after his seeds sprouted as well. Prot3us1 and Trippy definitely worth a look-see. also not to advertise but stop by my journal sometime as well. plenty of experienced growers offering up good advice there.

today is day 12 from seed...white widow is the only one showing root growth..could this be because im using a 5 inch net pot and they are filling that up first???????should i lower my water level so theyll chase it? i dunno...should they be growing faster or lookin good?

those kids are a little young for nutes to begin with. are you starting out at 1/4-1/2 strength or did you dive right in? if you feel you're having problems, i would opt to cut the nutes and go with purified bottled spring water for a few days ( 3 days minimum ) make sure to pH the water first, and shoot for about 5.5-6.0 for this method. That should be enough to make sure you have established a root system, and your kids will still enjoy a few dissolved solids from the spring water, and they'll be getting plenty of water.
Also i'm not familiar with DWC, meaning i've never used the method. But I am certain that the medium should NOT be flooded consistently throughout the day. Roots NEED oxygen, so if your roots aren't having a break from the bubbly at all, lower your water level so that its just enough to splash up into your net pots and give the roots a drink, but low enough that the roots can still breathe throughout the day.
Those are my 2 cents, now for someone with a little more experience to step in and correct me, haha.

the only plant having problems is that stupid white dwarf...all the others are showing signs of good growth...they all have roots hanging....i think im going to replace that dwarf with some other shit...dont really know what it is...tastes like lemon tho....found a couple seeds in one nug...we'll see how it goes......
im using the gh flora system...im using the suggested dosage for cuttings/seedlings....the dwarf may have experienced some shock...one day i went in and the water level was low and white dwarfs rockwool was dry...i filled the res back up and within twenty the dwarf was standing upright again....ever since that day its been the same size tho and slowly turning yellow while the others are thriving
