Soil - 40% perlite, 30% homemade compost, 20% vermiculite, 10% worm castings. This is one of my favorite mixes for soil grows and it has never failed me. It makes nice, soft soil for root development and hold just enough moisture. Nutes will be coming soon very soon.

Lights - 4 100w replacement CFLs 6500k. I could use more light but Ive never grown with so little light and want to see what I can get away with. Ill move them into a larger room when the other grow is done vegging.

Temps and pH are good.

First the pure indica - We call it Ginger or Georgia depending on the day. This plant split naturally at the 5th node but i topped both of those and they are growing again this morning.

Next up the sativas - its been in my arsenal for a while and no one remembers the exact origin but i love it. This one was also topped a two days ago.
