This is my first grow. First off, the set up. I don't have pictures of the box.
The growing box is constructed from cardboard and lined with mylar. The box is 19 inches wide, 22 inches deep and 32 inches tall. Near the bottom I have a 120mm air intake fan and near the top I have a 120mm air outtake fan. No filters have been put in place yet. I currently have 6 CFL bulbs (Two x 40 watt 2700k, Two x 23 watt 2700k and Two x 26 watt 6500k.) These lights are suspended from above for easy height adjustment.
When the light's are on, the box temperature is between 24 and 26 degrees celcius.
I started by attempting to germinate 4 bag seeds. 2 germinated. For the first 4 days or so, I had them under 18/6 light. During this time, a light became unsuspended, landed on one of the plants and burnt almost half of it off.
I switched to 12/12, realizing that by the time a plant flowered, i could only have 6 - 7 weeks of flowering (I have a set date in which I have to harvest).
Here is the unburnt plant, at 1 week and 4 days old.
Just 1 week after this picture, this plant began to flower! 2 week and 3 days old and under less than 2 weeks of 12/12 it showed sex. This means this plant can have 8 weeks of flowering time. The burnt plant, stunted from damage, had not shown sex yet. Here is the female plant at 2 weeks and 5 days old.
And another
I'm going to start fertilizing and doing some lst with this plant in the very near future.
I'll post some more pics in a day or two (Including the other plant!
Any comments, questions or advice are welcome.
