Ok after months of studying, reading, watching every Jorge Cervantes DVD, every Youtube video, and buggin' the living crap out of everyone I know with even slight knowledge of indoor growing I'm finally up and running. I have a 4x4x8 grow room, 600 watt HPS, 100 cfm fan blowing air in at the bottom, 150 cfm fan blowing air thru the HPS and out of the room. Today is day 1 and I have 7 G13 clones purchased from a local medical mj provider. A couple of the clones look pretty pathetic but from what I understand "they are young and will heal". The clones are in small rock wool cubes at this point. And I was planning on growing in soil. Is it possible to transplant from rock wool to soil? OH.... also at this point I am only watering the clones with distilled water with a PH of 6.5. No Nutes. Most of my clones have roots that are begining to come out of the cube's bottom a couple of them don't. When should I transplant them. I plan on using Foxfarm Ocean Forest potting soil. Which Im told Perfect for containers and ready to use right out of the bag. Ocean Forest is pH adjusted at 6.3 to 6.8 to allow for optimum fertilizer uptake. There’s no need for nitrogen fertilizers for first 3 weeks. I will attach pics any advice or pointers will be greatly appreciated. This is from my 1st post on 5/13/09

Ok it's actually been 8 days since my first post. The babies are coming along nicely.... I added a couple of strains... I have g13, bubblegum, GDP, Master Kush, Mantanuska Thunderfuck, and Pre-98 Bubba Kush. I had some yellowing on a couple lower leaves of the G13 only... so I've begun adding nutes. Foxfarm Grow Big and Big Bloom. Hopefully this will help. All other plants seem to be doing fine. My soil is also Foxfarm Ocean Forest Potting soil. I have been watering by hand once in the morning and once in the evening. I have been using tap water that I let sit for 24 hours min. I didn't know about the chlorine for the 1st 5 days and was watering straight from tap (after adjusting the PH). My humidity is usually around 45%, Im thinking of adding a bucket of water in the room and letting it evaporate. If tips, pointers, or suggestions will be appreciated. kiss-ass
