Ok im growing in my closetfor the first time. Its bag seed im using so not sure of the strain but i think its a sativa. Here are some pics of the setup / plant progress. Currently 100W HPS /Miracle Grow soil for veg and move to 400. Sorry about image quality, using webcam.
Looks like that little guy...er...hopefully girl is stretching out some. If you can get the light closer without burning it (try to keep that temp to 75-79 with that hps) then do so...or get supplemental light on it so it won't stretch. Get a fan on it too...and before I give out any more information on what I would do...I recommend reading the grow f.a.q. and browsing the forums some more, while baked of course!
Good Luck!
Here is day 18 of veg ..about a week after i posted the last pics. Is it me or does it seem small for day 18 ? :s..hopefully it grows alot in the next week. Also threw in a 15 w cfl. any suggestions? Is it to early to clone?
no you can't clone yet,,sorry,,guess you haven't read much yet,,if you have no heat issues,,get that light down on the plant,,it's pretty tall and lanky for 18 days,,here's a pic of a plant at 17 days,,,,the closer the light,,the less stretching your plant does,,keeps it nice and tight and bushy,,,hope this helps and good luck to the end
Day 24! ...Heres an updated picture. any suggestions? i noticed it likes the cfl alot more then the HPS, it leans towards the cfl. I also just received my Belladonna , just sprouted a day ago. Should i clone it yet? and how much longer you think before i kick it into 12/12..a week or 2?
you can't clone until there are at least 5-7 nodes on plant. its in the growfaqs. it looks a tad small, get a lightcloser, get a fan on it. Stay the hell away from Miracle Gro. I am also using it (I didn't know any better when I started) am having lots of plant burn, the stuff is way too acidic and bug-laced I am using tubed flouros so mine are growing slower also. but get the light as close as you can without plant burn. the closer, the more dens (bushier) your final plant wilol be. the more the stem stretchedthe weaker it'll be and you want her strong so she can hold up those fat buds later
I don't know your strain, but vegg for at least 1 month I went for 2 but again I;m using flouros (tubes) what;s your hurry? good things take time. there are strains out there that take less time to grow. Perhaps you should look into them, next time?
You won't kill them if you use common sense with your fan setting. I have been using this box fan ever since I moved them from shelf to the floor. On the shelf I used an oscillating desktop dfan 24/7 1 foot off my plants on low.
First grow..hows it look?
