100 watt HPS, not a special light, just hardware store HPS. I want to get some experience under my belt before I invest hundreds in lighting. I keep the light about 12" away at this point. The fan leaves absorb a lot of heat if it is any closer.

Not to much nutes, one feeding of MG 18.18.21. Once I start flowering I am going to switch to a bloom mix. Soil is MG organic, neutral PH. About 1.5 inches of 1 inch rock under the soil and drainage holes. I picked the soil not because it was organic, but because it was the loosest and closest to 6.8 PH I could find. It seems to be thriving in it. I recommend it. Even after watering, the soil is still lose, it never gets muddy or compact.

After this plant is mature enough (and hopefully female) I plan on cloning it, and starting some more mothers to clone from. At that point I am going hydro.

This is the second plant I've grown in my life. The first was a house plant that died from someone spilling a beer in the pot. This grow is credited to the RIU forums, everyone here rules.
