1st Time CFL Cabinet Grow

HELP ME GET STARTED!!!

I have 5 plants, one is on life support. Grow cabinet, 4 26w cfl's, mini fan, reflective reptile light with 2 of 4 lights in it. One of the plants is in organic mg soil with perlite. the other 4, i have no clue what they are in "dirt". been under 18/6 for 2 days now.These are clones that a friend of mine through my way once his gf found out about em'. ha

Need help with everything. On a budget and i would hate to see these babies go to waste.

unless you're trying to get your plants to flower dont put them on 12/12

what other ?'s do you have?

turn your lights to 18/6...and start low stress training them

yea you need to keep them veggn on the 18/6 until you think they are big enough then switch to a 12/12 to get ur buds kickin

Cool. Thanks! Lights just turned on at midnight and will run till 8pm. should I move the others into different soil? I have mg organic with a bag of perlite to use. What kind of fertz? or does the soil have shit in it to keep em' strong for a few days/week?

Thanks. follow the ride. will continue to update often. on brudda man

don't transplant them until they have built up a good root system...give them food with like a 10-15-10 ratio until you transplant to get strong roots...

go to your local nursery pick up some bat quano, not to expensive

Anything else I should grab while I am out and about? I'm watering with bottled water. Is that ok? How about a soil meter? Worms I hear work well to. Will update pictures after work

i just picked this up ebay for $10.15 shipped, hope it works. worm castings for veg, bat guano for bloom. 1 lb of each.

i dunno how well it will work, I use Bat Quano there are 4 different stages of it, one of seedlings and young veg one for vegging, one for early flowering, and one for late flowering...
