Hello All!! I told myself that I was not going to do this because I am a newbie and I don't want to embarrass myself but after looking at other new growers and what they could do I am in!.

This grow is dedicated to Al B. Fuct for all his knowledge and help he has given this site.

Feel free to leave a note or comment about this grow because as we all try to grow the best, we all could use a little help and encouragement from time to time.

Man I just hope I can just make it through my first grow without acts of God,POPO intervention,fungus infection or any other disasters.

I started my White Widows seeds the 23rd of June and 7 out of 10 sprouted in just 24 hrs! I used an old jewelry box and put a sponge in it and cut a paper towel to fit and put the seeds in there and put the box on a heating pad.

I moved the sprouts to Rockwool and they are under a 4 lamp florescent and are about 2 inches and growing.

I have a 9x8x8 room with a 6x4 grow table with 4 different stages of grow planned I am running 4 tubs and 4 different solutions.

I will have 3- digital 600 HPS lights.

Good Morning ! After i posted last i noticed that my Meho's had roots coming out the bottom so i soaked my wool and this morning put my 2in RW into 4in. I wanted to put them into 6in to stay but they grew so fast i didnt want to wait for 2 days to move them. I will move them when i get the new ones.

I am having a bitof trouble with my lighting though. If i move the lights as close as possable i can't get a fan in as well. Its set up for clones which will be taller and then then fan and light can work in harmony.

Have a great day everyone

23 days and counting!! Here are my Meho's 23 days old today. Hey do i count the days from when I put the seeds into the paper towel or when they sprout? Kinda like it life starts at conception or when there is a heart beat? HMMM something to think about.

Anyway i have made some modifications to the area, adding a top to my flood area and painted the walls. I will add room pics later. I am just amazed how fast they grow! Every time I look under the hood I get so excited and you can get really attached to these little guys!!! Now I understand why all the frantic HELP! Help!! in the newbie area. I would be screaming too if my Meho's were sick. LOL

Have a great day everyone !

My Avatar counted the days for me and jacked me all up. LOL
I am now at 28 days I know this because I counted each day on a calender myself touching each day one by one. LOL
Here are the new pics and as you might be able to tell, out of the 7 seeds that sprouted I have 4 that look one way and 3 that look completely different. I ask you all if anyone has seen the plant that likes to grow at an angle (see pics) I have 4 that have grown that way and the others are growing strait and true. They are supposed to be white widow seeds. Just wondering if anyone has seen this before. They are under the same lights as the ones that are growing straight. I am thinking its the seeds and strain. Comments ??? I will be going to a 1200 PPM later this week running 700 now. I find myself just coming into my room to watch them is this normal?? LOL Take care everyone have a great week !!

Spending as much time as I have with my girls you just get a feel when something is not right. I was going to change out the nutes tomorrow so they would have a chance to adjust and if there were any problems I could fix them before I left for the weekend. Something was not right this morning i could not get the PH to adjust took me 10 tries before i got it. The PPM's showed 700 and i figured i would change them out soon anyway.

Well was I all turned around and upside down. Reading posts about water and nutes and PH I found that I needed to check my water for PPM's BEFORE i started come to find out i was starting at 350 400 PPM so my nutes were only at 300 or 400 2 weeks ago!!!!! ahhhhhhhhhh SO the combo of flucuating PH and NO nutes my babys were starting to show signs of wear and tear. I Had water sitting for tommorows change out so we now have new water and nutes !!! Running at 900 minus the water so 600 and I want to add another 300 in 2 days. Water is at 78 degrees and I dont have a temp or humitity gauge but it is very compfy in the room.

Just an update for those who are watching.

Have a great week everyone.
