My Lil Closet Grow

zeke907 · #1 05-21-2008, 01:47 PM

I guess this will be my first post in my grow journal. Where to start. I have planted seeds from bags I've gotten from the dispensary. So, I am hoping they will all be females. I germed some of them (paper towel method) don't think it's really necassary, and others I soaked in a glass of water then straight into the dirt. Well happy to say all sprouted and are doing well, very well I might add. I have one larger plant that I had started earlier, so it is a bit taller and bushier, but her sisters are catching right up, then I added three more seedlings maybe a few days apart. All are above ground and thriving if you will. Lights are fluorescents now, as I await my 400w MH system. I have a 400w HPS for flowering. One fan at the moment since I'm just using cfl's, will upgrade next week. I am gonna have to put some ventilation in very soon due to heat issues with the 400's. Will be needing help with that. 8 plants, 4x2x6 closet, super soil wonderbloom flower planting soil, fox farm big bud, and the GH line. And I guess that somes it up. Well folks, I have a pretty good idea what im doing, as I have done tons of research. But lets keep it growing and smoking to good times. I am here and ready to learn and develop. So, coaches and mentors, take me. lol.

Thanks, Dozer. I'm doing my best. Things are looking and feeling good. I got the free nutes or additives at the local hydro store. Just kinda threw them in with the rest of the stuff I bought. I guess it was just because I spent a few bucks there. lol. But all is green in my world. Thanks for checkin in folks, and stay tuned for the ride. I am gonna go get some FF soil today, I am hearing good thangs of it. Gottta go be back soon. Chuuuuurch!

So, here are a few more pics of the set-up. I made a few slight adjustments, and used my little veg shelf thingy I have partially set up. I am gonna equip it with mylar and a small axial fan for exausting the warmer air. Just need to get the tools to cut the whole, my buddy has the tools I will need so soon enough it will be complete. Come by check things out, leave input or ideas or whatever. It is all welcome and appreciatied. Chuuuuurch!

Yes sir, this is my first solo grow. Thanks for the comps. I have been making changes and trying to get things just right. I think I am almost there. I think I have implemented a decent system to get my first grow going. What do you think Picasso? Got some decent nutes, soil, lights, and accessories, so Im feelin good about this. Kinda seems like things are going so slow. But I guess patience is a virtue. Come on folks comments and input is much needed and appreciated. Is nobody interested in my grow

It looks like a great start. Keep adding pictures and people will come. We are suckers for pictures, lol. Any idea on strains?

Hey, do you guys think I should get more cfl's for the veg shelf? I actually ordered a 400 watt MH set-up the other day, am debating on putting that in the closet along with the 400 watt HPS?????? Or trying to get it in the veg shelf if heating isnt an issue in there. I am going to put an axial or comp fan in there to exhaust that hot air, but dont know if that will be enough with the 400w MH. What do you think? Just throwing some ideas trying to get feedback.
