Okay so this iis my first grow, Im limited on space so I decided after reading on the forums for a while to go with a CFL grow. Im in 2 and a half weeks now and after posting threads in the newbie section I am making progress. So I figured why not start a grow journal.

Here is what I have for my set up

Currently 6 CFLs outputting about 2000 lumen each
5 plants from bag seed
Watering every other day
Medium sized oscillating fan for ventilation (window/closet gets cracked open everyday for fresh air)
Potted in Miracle Grow African Violet potting soil
And Vermiculite for added breathing on the roots.

Since Im already two weeks in im gonna fast forward to where I am now.

Here is the label for the soil and the germinated seeds:

3 days later I planted them. Also a pic of the lights I would be using....before anyone says it, since then I have removed the tin foil and set the lights at proper hight, I had stretched them at first, one of which had died from this. Lesson learned. And the foil caused a hot spot with another and killed that one as well.

Still at 10 days old. At this point the stretching was obvious and I had adjusted light hight. Also a quick snap of the plant food.

Good shit robbie, looks like you're on the right tracks, in a couple of the above images I noticed that the lights could have been closer and I saw some stretched sprouts but appears you have already corrected them, nice job, good luck to you and your grow!

Enjoy!

Ok so here is where problems began the hot spot from the foil burned out one of the sprouts, and also the one plant cirled in red end up dying from bieng too stretched.....

Also as you can see yellowing and browning had got to some of the tips of the plants, from the foil burning? Nute burning? Not able to tell. This was right about before hitting 2 weeks.
