Talking First ever grow - CFL Indoor - Journal
Currently have 4 plants with the two lamps, will hopefully get another 2 lamps this week.

Plants are about 7 days old.

The guy I got these seeds off said they were femenized and apparently the strain is called "Crystal Meth" not sure how reliable this information is though.


Just made this thread for general advice in criticism! looking forward to your feedback!

Cheers

Raise the lights a bit and put some paper or something around the cups you reckon?
How long should I leave them in these cups before putting them into bigger pots?

i would say transplant after the 3-4 true sets of leaves ( true = the fan like leafs not the round)

and some how invest in some light weight light fixtures those lamps will work but you will need many more bulbs for 4 plants(you will have to make it by hand unless you find some great fixture)

oh 6500k temp bulbs for vegg and 2700k for flowering

and you want at least 100w's per plant(actual not eqv)

Hey, refer to your mj plant as 'her' rather than 'him'. Bad luck referring to your plant as a male!

Looking good and healthy so far. Big first set of leaves is a good sign. Like someone said earlier Ide suggest getting rid of the clear cups or covering the sides with somethign unless you plan on transplanting the second you see signs of roots (i'de give you a day or two if you look closely). Great start! Keep at it and like everyone will tell you keep adding lights as well throughout the grow.

It is spring here, have transplanted them all into big 10 litre buckets, will putting them outside during the day, and then putting them back under the lights at night (before it gets dark outside) mess up the 24/0 lighting I have them under at the moment?
