Erm quick question, do you think i should clip of the oval leaves?
They seem to be getting pretty big on SX1&2 and it seems like a waste of the plants energy?

Also, i have not added anything to the soil yet, just straight water. Does anyone have any suggestions?
I was thinking bout just having a organic grow, seems like theres less ways of messing it up like that lol.


O yeah and KP i just realized you called me josh lol didnt notice the first time i read it

Hey again,
You can find the daylight bulbs at walmart or home depot. walmart is cheaper, the store that i went they were in a blue package (energy smart) here is the upc info 043168853972-and the product #85397 (walmart) look at the energy saver section, I didn't find them the first time because they were hidden down low. You want at lease 3 bulbs, I have 8 going right now. 1600 lumens (x) 8 =12,800 total lumens and around 200watts. You also might want to put them on a 18/6 or even 24/0 not the 17/7. Your plant will alot faster with more light.
If you still can't find the daylights you should be able to find cool white cfls with no problme. I was thinking that you have a small space you might be able to tape some white paper to bounce the light to your plant. I don't know if it will work though.
later

I wouldn't cut anything just yet, wait untill the plant is bigger.
Just add water for now, I don't know if you have any way to test the soil or water. so you might over nut it. and kill it.
more light more light more light. more air more in and out (air) which will bring new air in and the old out, this is key.

Thanks logan, ive just set my timer to 18/6 , yeah i thought it was a lil to early to cut em aswell.

I got a soil tester, tested that and it was neutral, not to much acid not to much alkaline.

i wana get a exact ph tester soon.


Erm Asda is the english version of walmart isnt it?
ill go in there soon


lol belive it or not i have had problems finding the cool ones, ive managed to find one 28 watt coll white one but it had this gay connection, i got it n e way but blew it tryiong to wire it up to a plug. right now i only have 2700k ones.

yeah i got a fan on in there with some paper in front of it to stop it blowing to hard or onto the plants, but to keep the air moving. I also blew up a black bag today and put it behind the fans so the fan was sucking the co2 out of the bag and around the cupboard.

Thanks for the advise, much appreciated!

I guess living in the US have its advantages.

not me bro, but looks like someone definately is.

why do you say that?

Got 4 more bulbs to add today that will be a total of 6 = 9310 Lumens.

I think SX2 is coming on nice, SX1 is slightly behind and the other 2 are doing pretty well considering there age and the fact they haven't been able to get that close to a light cause there currently occupied!

Last night i cleaned out my grow room as it was a bit of a tip, no condition to raise young ones thats for sure. Also Laid white paper on the floor and built a cover for the fan that allows me to control roughly how hard it blows onto the plants.
I was never told why i should remove the mirror so i kept it, silver foil is long gone tho!


Hear are some pics of the room now, let me know what you think?

Hey bud,
I told you why you shoudn't have the mirror earlier. but Ill tell you again the mirror takes in the light with out giving it back. Not a good reflectent. just use flat whit paint or that christmas poly film.
Plants starting to look good.
did you find the daylight/ or cool white bulbs?
