hi guys , its my first grow and i need your help. I use my closet as a grow box for my 2 plants that are 2 days old(liberty haze, ultraviolet auto and i will add my super lemon haze when it pops up). I have 8 clfs 26w, i made with tin foil something like reflector, i use 3 pc fans for ventilation, i leave my closet open because its summer and i got heat issues and because i got no intake and exhaust fan and i got some questions.
1) Do i have to add all my 8 bulbs from now?
2)I now use 2-4 bulbs depending on the temperatures because the temperature reaches up to 90F during the day and i keep them 6 inches away from the top of my plants.Do i have to keep them closer?Is it a good idea to use cold packs in order to lower my temperatures?
3)I got 2 thermometers check them into the fotos, which one should i trust?
4)Do i have to make an other reflector because i think that this one raises the temperature.
5)Can i transplant them into 5 gal pots directly?
6)I will use biobizz fertilizers, the feeding charts that company made tell that i have to start using fertilizers at the 2nd week, what do you recommend?
7)I got big bud fertilizer, when do i have to start using it and how?
Check the fotos and tell me your opinion.Thank you

Cfl's should be within 2-3" over plants. You should start out with only 1-2 as seedlings dont require much light. Double light when you have double growth, in a couple weeks. Fix your ventalation problems, add gentle airflow intake and outake. Weed likes temps between 70 to low 80's. Ninety will never do!

If you are considering changing your reflector I would. Something a lil more efficient. I don't know which thermometer2 use, whichever one seems better but I'd say probably the 1st photo. You can place them in the 5gal buckets already alright, but you should sexem 1st as not2 waste soil should1 be male. The nute chart is general, if your plants are ok you can probably hold off still. Or slowly apply it at a lower dose2 slowly acclimate the girls2 the juice. Especially if your soil already has fertilizers in it, those alone last a good amount of time and supply well.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Good advise, also tinfoil does not reflect light, get some mylar or just paint walls white.
