I would try a bigger fan. Just don't blow it right on them. Aim it up just as long as the air is circulating and the plant is moving around.

I will most definately be getting another/bigger fan for circulation...but for now...here are some new pics and stuff.

The stems on my plants look like they are shedding their skins. I am hoping that this is just natural growth causeing the stem to split and tear. I assume so.

I have moved my lights because I wanted them to be closer. I will be rotating the plants between the sets of lights. One set is 2 42W CFLs and the other is 4 26W CFLs. The 42W CFLs hang horizontally and the 26Ws hang at an angle.

For any newbie to growing, my setup is a manifestation that with a little creativity you can make a simple setup pretty easily.

I put some screws in the wall to hold the power strip in place to mount the lights. Intead of raising the lights...I will be lowering my plants as they grow. I know I'm a genious haha.

Both plants are looking wonderful. I am very happy with how things are going so far. And I do very little! All you gotta do is sing to em! They love it.

also...I watered the plants yesterday. That would be April 30th. Two party cups full each. That should last em for about 4 days. Maybe more since I recently covered the soil.

These are the updates for today.

After taking the white paper off from over the soil, and starting to close my closet door again, the plants leaves are not drooping anymore. I think they may have been drooping because the overall moisture level in the soil as well as in the room was too high.

When I got home today the temperature in my closet was almost 90 degrees!!! I had to go buy another fan. I got a 10inch oscilating fan.

I also noticed a couple of small things. At each node there are small leaves that are getting bigger and bigger each day. I am now on my fourth set of leaves at the top as well.

The most surprising this today was that there are leaves developing at the "node" by the seedling round leaves. ya know the little ones that first come with the sprout?) Leaves have begun developing right there and I really did not expect this. From reading other threads in this forum I assumed those round leaves would just die and fall off eventually.

On one of the plants the new growth developing by these round leaves actually ripped right through one!!! Instead of poking out by the stem the new little leave decided it was time to get some air and just pushed through!! You can see this in the picture. (100_2980 is the picture)

I am amazed at how well these plants are growing. They seem relentless against the heat. New leaves are growing everywhere, even in the spots I wouldnt have expected it.

So...Even after buying another fan...the temperature in my grow closet is still averages about 85 degrees with the CFL's on. Higher than I want. Does anyone know if this will ptentially be a problem? So far the plants are thriving regardless of the heat.

85-90 is a good temp 4 most bagseed I find. If u r worried about it, water w/ cold water. Don't use ice tho, jus keep it n tha fridge.

So...I will be adding more pics later on tonight but as an update...

I added 3 more 26W CFL's. So now the setup is....

1 plant has 5 26W CFL's haning 1 inch away each.
the other plant has 2 42W CFL's 1 inch above and 2 26W CFL's with round reflector about 2 inches about.

The plants are on their fifth set of leaves and the newer sets have seven points each. I'm happy bout that.

Also, I have switched the timers on my lights to 12/12 today.

So far I haven't given my plants any extra nutes beacuse they have been growing so great.
But after a couple days into flowering I plan on starting to feed my plants a 10 50 15 flowering nutrient. I'm going to start with very very small amounts.
I doubt that my plants will need the nutrients but I'm gonna give it to em anyways.

Pics to be up soon!!
