    Default First grow bag seeds and cfl's

    Wuts up guys this is my first grow and it has been a learning experience thus far. I was sick of everyone saying the r dry and not being able to find bud so i decided to try to grow my own so a couple months down the road i wont run into that problem. Right now I have 2 plants growing from bagseeds. They r 13 and 15 days old. I'm using fox farm ocean forest, and 2 26W cfl's 6500k. So far my main problem is heat, it just started getting hot in my area and my plants r in a very confined space so the temp gets up over 90 sometimes and their leaves start to curl upwards. This has to be very stealth so i can only open my closet door a few times a day to let the ac blow in. well anyway heres some pics of the babies.

    One dilemma i have is when these plants were 3 and 5 days old i had my friend babysit them while i went away for a few days. I had the lights on them 24/7 but while i was gone my friend put them on 12/12 so should i continue the 12/12 or go back to 24 for another week

    The setup looks ok. My grow is in a similar stage too!
    I would revert to the 27/7 cycle. The plants are still too young to put into flowering.
    You may have stressed the plants, but at this stage I am sure they will spring back just fine!

    To cool things down, introduce a 100 cfm fan to the setup. It should gently sway the plants. It will also keep it cool.

    You can also try make an extractor using PC fans, wired to a cell phone charger.

    Good luck with your grow!

    Check mine out too. you may get a few ideas or learn from some of my mistakes too!
