Absolute first grow ever. But I think I can handle a damn plant for chrissakes. (insert brush shoulders off here) 4 days old, started w 2 2700's, switched to 2 6500k's, went to home depot to buy 2 socket splitters and 2 more 6500's, unfortunately the highest watt I could find were the 27w. 4 bulbs on (HER MAYBE) so far for about 1 day. I got these lights real close, Im talkin like 2 inches off on 2 of em and the overhagers are like 4 -5 off I think....got 1 aquarays? 3 foot? 20watt flouro strapped to my wall. I dont have it juicing yet, I wonder if it will do anything for the plant.

Learned all I know'd from RIU. Awesome. Having fun' this is great and gives me something to do. I burned the plant real nice on one side from a lil hint of 15-30-15 I mixed in. Using tap water and my aquarium bubbler aerator for 3 days, mixed in some aquarium water, salt, 10-30-15 I'm talkin' like a pinky finger dip full pinch and goin for the gold. haha.

But I burned it. I hope she makes it. Updates soon.

if your unsure of the bagseed you may want to plant more than 1 incase that 1 is male... good start what is your setup?

i have about 10 seedlings in a small enclosure 2x2x2 3 42 watt cfl's. 2 fans 1 intake 1 exhaust. i used promix from local nursery floro-micro-grow as fertz. your doing good so far im a little behind u because of 1 of my mothers died my first indoor grow im only experimenting.

Hey guys and girls.

Well, out of this sack of SOME BOMB shizz that put me on my ass I only got 1 bean. Its getting a lil bigger lately. I 've got 24hr lights on her cause I dont have a timer YET. but I keep checking goodwill stores for one but everyone seems to want a timer haha.


I have updates for you guys but my girl is sleeping and the cam in the room dam.

Tommorow I'll upload.

I see 2 things jutting out the sides but Im no pro at sexing. Maybe you guys can help me, it probly needs more time to tell, but Im not an expert on this stuff so I hope one of you guys could chime in. I only say that because I thought I seen one dude say it will show sex eventually sometime, doesnt have to be 12/12 to show sex but maybe im wrong.

Thanks.

2 questions please if you be so kind to answer me Id be so grateful.

1. Can I pick male seeds incase this turns out to be male?

2. or do "good" seeds only come from pollenized females after they been in touch with males?

Pics.

Are my lights too close? I put 4 cds together with duct tape on the back and made a poor mans light canopy.

I am only wondering if, I need to place my lights HIGHER so that I force the plant to strech HIGHER under CFL's, to give more light, and space to the lower branches? Or am I doing fine cause its still young? does that make sense to you?

Or just leave the lights low because I dont have much watts, and due to the fact the plant will EVENTUALLY mature, it just takes longer?

I know its a lil young, but it looks big to me...and Ive got some more reading to do about calyxs? pistils, and stipules to really understand my plant sex.

Thanks folks....please comment I dont care what it is. And I wont jump throats for spelling cause I suck at spelling and this isnt a spelling class so please mess up your words and english as much as you can so I can know in my heart that you are a genuine human being and you are not trying to be perfection.









^^^^ This pic is the FIRST NODE right?^^ so I need to wait until 3 or 4 more NODES develop higher before I see the hairs right? SO what Ive read is that from this first point of the NODE, I won't be able to tell sex from plant age, and based on this node alone right? I have to wait for 3 or 4 more to develop? And/or put on 12/12......right....?

dont do the nutes if there still young might kill em as for amount half tsp in gallon water usaly suffices

Oh man, im using like a 1/4 tsp NOT TBLSP in like 2 liters of water maybe less.....is that why my branches look a lil brown?

im sorry i might have the tsp and tblsp mixed up ill check for you but yea you dont need that heavey of a concerntration of nutes deffintly a possiblity also light might be burning leaves whati do is i place a small calibuur fan right on top of my cfl lights i only use them to start seedlings off btw and the blwo directly down on the lights to keep it cool and i can have the light practly touching the leaves that way i get themost out of cfls but i think most people would tell you the same dont add nutes yet way to early youll killthe plants usaly they done need nutes until you trans plant and you can tell when they need them as they show tell tell sighns go under newwbie central do a little reading itll tell you whats up

but it loks liek your setup fan is great same concept will also strenghten plant stem which in turn makes it beaffier which alsows the xylem and phloem tubes to enlarge and make it possible for them to carry larger amounts of sugars to leaves which promotes photosynthesis (its a process incase you dnt know) which gets you bigger denser nuggies
