I'm getting back into growing cannabis and I am starting out with 10 White Widows. just got them to germinate and I'm about to pop them into the growing medium I have for them.

In the flowing pictures I have some bag seed plant that i have growing (its kinda short for being three weeks old), seeds that I have germinated, the jiffy tray pellets that I'm going to put my seedlings in and the entire closet setup I have going at the moment - I know its messy.

Comments and tips are appreciated.

I got a question. Would it be better to buy a 400w MH system for vegging and then buy a specially made 400w HPS bulb that will work with the MH system or should i just buy a HPS system which will save me money because that special HPS bulb costs around $100ish. The 400w MH system costs $179 and the equivalent HPS system costs 189. I'm leaning towards dropping the extra 100 just so i can have great high quality veg and flower growth.

Some pictures i took throughout the week.

5 seedlings.jpg - A couple days after starting the germination process.

Setup.jpg - How I setup my plants under my floro tube.

Closeup.jpg - Older closeup photo.

Closeup later.jpg - Todays closeup.

Otherside.jpg - Todays closeup of the other side which contains the newer seedlings, my bag seed plant in an orange pot and two seeds in Jiffy pellets which have failed to sprout so far.

In other news, I'm planning on buying my 400watt MH system tomorrow. Not sure whether or not to wait a couple days to wait for the seedlings to get more acclimated to light.

I got some heat problems. Yesterday I bought a 400w MH system and when I left it on with my closet shut it got hot in there. Anyone have any suggestions to help regulate the heat?

Do you have an in-line fan for your MH...if not that would help alot.

Other than that, plenty of air flow...

hey, if you got the money... investing in an exhaust system and carbon filter would be a good way to go.
