wud up, this is really like my 3rd grow but my other 2 i couldnt get past the first week haha. anyway im growing it in my closet with 3 cfl bulbs atm(i got more bulbs and another y-splitter but got no room so w/e, i might buy a light bulb socket i can hang down on the back side of plant with a y splitter and 2x23w flowering cfls idk tho.)i have 1x42w(150w) 2700k softwhite cfl, and 2x23w(100w) 6500k daylight cfl. i will use 23w 2700k's for flowering.My light schedule is 12/12 from seed (inspired by pitbudz87 grow.) in 16oz cups, for a quick personal grow/learning grow. I water probually like every 3 days. I use this technique this guy on here told me to do for water. (i lift cup up and see how light it is or heavy it is to determine if i need to water or not.) +reps again to whoever that was. My soil is Gertens Profressional Grade soil. I think its organic soil to. i one fan in there i think its like 5' or like 9' maybe 12'.

My plants are 14 days old today, and 3' tall with the 4th set of real leaves getting bigger.(they may not look 3' in pic cuz i transplanted today and kinda burried stem more.) The seeds i used were from bag seed idk what kind cuz i just put all my seed in same bag it may be from some my dank seed or lesser shit.

Any advise/help will be good threw out the grow Thanks. Special Thanks to ludachris he been helping me for past few weeks.

Heres some pictures of my setup and my plants in they earlier days.First few pics is from my old setup and my plants 10-24 hours from being planted. last few when the plants are taller are is day6 from planted.

i will be using this miracle grow bloom booster 10-16-10 nutes for my plant idk if thats better then the fish emulshin and seed extract to get me better yeild then him but its all i got.

like i said 12/12 from seed is a waste of time as far as i am concerned.
i wont read the link you sent as i have heard it all before.
if you get more than a 1/4 oz per plant then you are doing well.
i dont fuck about growing plants for a 1/4 oz and if you read the thread i posted/started about a year ago you will see why its not a great thing to do.
and they wont be ready in 6 weeks.

You might be better off vegging another week

And if you are worried about it getting tall you can do things to prevent this

1 train your plant by tying it down with twist ties and drilling a couple hole around the rim of your container for tie down points

Or clip the top of the plant and it will stop growing up and split in 2 and start to bush
and grow up and out

Just an idea and try not too rush things

Growing takes time no need to rush

If you want something worth smoking and you are already putting up a big effort to get started which is great

Just try to get as much out of the plant as you can, do some reading on this forum, there are a bunch of great trick and techniques different people use

Find out what works for you and go with it

Good luck

Okay been about 3 days since my transplant, still no new growth but besides that this mourning i woke up and checked on plants and saw some this crystal looking shit like on my soil where i cut my holes at. then in one of the holes i cut on my big sonic cup i seen a fucking slug. The little motherfucka must have got in my soil when i transplanted. sometimes ill have like 10 slugs on the outside of my soil bag and a few times i had like 2 of them in the soil bag that i just throw out. So when i go to transplant i take soil out by hand and kind of shake soil in there so i no that there is no slugs in it, but i guess i missed him because he was in there.

Now i have a few questions, i dont like them ugly looking things period let alone in my room in my closet where my gear at. i didnt see any signs of the slug crawling around like on my walls or anything cuz they'd leave slime. Question #1 is will slugs harm my plant? im pretty sure he was the only one but you no he was down like by where the roots would be at. Question #2 what can i do to make sure that there isnt another one down in my soil where my plants are(ive ask this question before on like bug forum but noone answered.) would watering with 1/2 water, 1/2 isopropyl rubbing alcohol work to like kill them down in my soil if they there or will it cause harm to my plant.

i killed the one slug i pulled him out that hole and poured the rubbing alcohol on it haha:twisted: was mean but tired of dealing with them ugly things.

Thanks for any help or advice.
