Heres all this again- i have it in my grow journal actual page as well.
I have a pretty simple set up, i'm using a Pro-grow 260 LED from Hydroponics Hut, cost me $421 including the shipping. I have them growing in Miracle gro potting mix, i read up on fox farms ocean forest after i transplanted them sadly. both plants are about 4 weeks old, but up until yesterday i didn't have a light and they grew by sun only.
I'm currently growing in a closet without a tent or anything, waiting for a few more paychecks to be able to afford everything i need for flowering season.
I have blood meal mixed in with some bio-start fungus and bacteria supplements as well as a little bit of crushed egg shell for calcium and fresh mushed banana for potassium. I'm watering them several times a day with a spray bottle, just wetting the top layer whenever it is completely dry. I'm doing an experiment with magnetic water, strawberry and akin plant growers in australia have been having amazing results in increased yield and size of each individual plant when using magnetized water so we'll see how it goes.
I had one question about my LED lamp i can't find anywhere, the PG 260 allows you to choose the spectrums your growing in, one switch is purple reds and hte other is white blues. Of course white blue is meant for vegging and purple red is meant for flowering, but would it increase the overall health of the plant to veg with the purple reds on? or would the plant simply ignore the new spectrums during this stage of life?

Anyway- heres my ghetto little grow room for the moment.

The blue thing over the door is a car window reflector- the kind that keeps your car from heating up. The side out toward the world is the blue side, to keep the heat in since i'm using LED's and i actually had a too cold grow room problem. and the other side of it is the shiny metalic which does a great job of keeping the light from espcaping out of about 80% of the door, since i have no exhaust system i have to keep the door open at the moment.
Lastly my oldest plant has suddenly started warping its leaves, this started only after i put it under my LED
Heres a shot of that- the best i can get on my computers camera
