This is my first attempt at growing. And I'm only doing it because the bud around here blows and is expensive. I want my own supply for my friends and I. But anyway, I sprouted some seeds in a paper towel from a bag I bought that was the best I've had around here in a while. I then planted them in some clear solo cups with some dirt I procured from my flowerbed.

Oh and I'm about a month along now, so these pictures old.


The pictures below are a few days after planting.

these were taken about 2 and a half weeks after planting, you can notice the larger pots. they really took off after repotting them.

and i guess ill just skip to a few days ago, just under a month of growing. i revamped the main growing closet and set up another one for cloning and mothers.

about a week ago, i started watering with a 10-15-10 fertilizer, starting out at a 20% dilution. i've been gradually increasing the strength with each watering.

i'm really hoping to get 3 females out of the 7 plants. i'm going to get a 600W hps for flowering shortly after christmas.

how does everything look so far? i've never had much of a green thumb, but hopefully i'm on a good path.

thanks everyone

so i am going to begin flowering today, still with the cfl's and the small hps. i'll be ordering the 600w hps within a few days.

i had to leave for a few weeks so the plants definitely suffered while i was gone. hopefully i can coax them back to health like they were before i left. here's some pictures i took this morning.

since this area is small, do you think a timed ozium release system would work to control odor? it isn't bad yet, but im sure it will be once flowering starts.
