Hey all, what's up thank for checking out my grow log.
Well to start off this is really my first "working grow" I done it once before with only a incandescence light when I was younger, and got caught. Also outside but a snow storm in April last year killed em. Now that I'm older and talked to the rents about it, they don't mind, as long as I don't go crazy with it and grow a bunch and start sellin. I have growing in my blood, my dad used to live on a farm and grow it himself and I've heard stories from people that he had some of the best stuff around, so maybe it will just come natural to me lol. After several germination attempts I finally got one going, around the first weekend of September, so it about 2 weeks old now. I already fucking droped and spilled it outside right when it first born, but it has recovered and start growing very well. I started with 24 hours of light for about 2 or 3 days when it was first born to help start its growth. Then went straight to 12/12 to help cut down on the grow size, and I've seen PC grows do well with 12/12 from seed. Right now I only have 29 watt 3-Way CFL, but it's getting the job done well. Some time in the future I gonna buy a Y socket and buy 2 42 watters for the rest of the cycle. I don't want a lot of light because I think it will cause some size problems. This right now is just a experiment/experience for me , I'm not looking for the best bud ever, or a huge harvest. But getting a blunt of my own homegrown will be pretty sweet to me.

. I Like to give you guys a update today but my internet being so slow it's ridiculous, so I gonna wait till later tonight and add the pics from a different PC. Also this weekend I WILL BE getting more light, I have money now and plan to buy some stuff. I think right now I'm just gonna get a 42 watt bulb and a Y, but I might buy 2 42's and 2 Y which I think will be enough at least until it's starts to flower, but I still think I'll be fine even then I gonna try and go for a mixed spectrum. Does anybody know by any chance what spectrum's for the wal-mart 42 watts are, They don't ever say on the box and I've never been able to find info on it. I know the light I have now is a full spec because it looks it's alittle bit blue and red mixed. Like it looks like the light is blue from one angle but redish from another.
But thankfully I've found a fun hobby.
