I currently have 5 seedlings growing under the 400W HPS. Im very pleased at the results.

I have 3 of them in Hydro.



Theyre just growin in the rockwool cubes and some hydroton. I hand feed them when the rockwool cubes start to lose weight. (i pick them up to see how heavy they are. if they are heavy; then they can go another day without watering. if theyre light; they need water)

no pumps, no meters, just the pH tester and my arsenal of nukes, I mean nutes

and currently I have 2 started in soil.

I start them off in Jiffy cubes (the expandable ones that soak water) and as soon as they pop up and drop their shell they go under the 400W HPS. in about 2 or 3 days the roots were sticking outta the jiffy cubes, so thats how I knew they were mature enough to get planted into the Miracle gro. (seedlings must be a certain age before U plant them into any miracle gro brand. if planted too soon the "time released" nutes will kick in too soon and give Ur plants a burn.) I water my seedlings in soil every 4 days.
