Grow Room Design (Pics)

It's kinda hard to see with my cellphone camera, but here it is. It's a start.

I have four more that are sprouting also but, they are too small to take a pic of. They should be ready to show tomorrow night. One question though, this miracle-grow wasn't a good idea was it? It says "continuous release nutes" on it. Is this ok?
 
I use the same type of miracle grow and my plants are loving it! You should be alright just wait a few weeks before you give 'em nutes and give a good flush before harvest. Looking good

Sorry for the bump, but how many cfl's at what wattage should I go with during veg? And when I flower them, what should I increase to? I've heard a lot about 6500k during veg. (daylight bulbs) And 2700k during flower. (warm) Does this sound right to you? And if so how many watts should I do, I don't want to beast my power bill too much, but I want my yields to be worth it somewhat....
 
I would try to get 42 watt bulbs, they put out a lot more but only use 42 watts. These bulbs are very good, I have a few in my growbox and they work great. I would def try getting 6500K for veg and 2700K for flowering and I guarantee your plants will thank you.

So if I have one vanity that has five sockets, then I put y-splitters on all of them to have 10 total bulbs, would that be good for 3-5 plants veg and flower? And when I flower would I keep the same light configuration but just change the bulbs to 42w 2700k warm bulbs? Or do I add those bulbs on top of the 6700k's?

Yes ten 42 watt (6500K) bulbs for veg and ten 42 watt (2700K) bulbs should be good enough to provide light for four or five plants. You may want to consider a couple CFL's near the bottom of the plants to give light to the lower branches. I have two 42 watt (2700K) bulbs and four 26 watt (2700K) bulbs on top. And I also have a 26 watt (2700K) bulb and a 70 watt HPS near the middle of the plants and they are getting huge. Just some food for thought.

Thanks for the input. I think I'm going to go with the 42's. I was also debating adding an hps during flower too. Where did you get a 70w with ballast? And how much?

You can get the 70 watt HPS from home depot for around 60$. I took the bulb out of the housing and made the ballast be outside of my box. If you get the HPS get a grounded plug to make the ballast be able to plug in. Also try and get an HPS without a light sensor to make it go on when it gets dark.

I see. Im having a little trouble with my spouts. Two were knocked over and we lost them. We had two that looked picture perfect, but now only one looks really healthy. How much do you water a baby plant?
 
Look at the pics a couple pages back, they're in those peat pots or whatever. The ones you can just plant into bigger pots without pulling them out.
 
I would suggest taking them out of the peat pots before transplanting, on my first grow I didn't take them out and the plants had root problems.

You can just hit the bottom of the pot and once the sprout comes out in one clump of dirt with roots all around the bottom you should move it into bigger pots. If the plant is stretched bury it up to a little below the first set of leaves.
