first grow!! two plants

Hello everyone!! this is my first GROW ( there have been many attempts) so my set up for now is two cfl lights theres a 24 and smaller one w,e there jsut for now until tuesday. so my soil mixture is miricale grow organic with dried manure for adding fluffyness so i had one seed going and then it died so i tured the lights off for three days until some other seeds were doen and so i go turn on the light and low and be hold theres a sprout comming out of the dirt so i plant my other seed in the soil about 4 inches away as my container is small and i water and check on twice a day and i have to keep moving the light closer so they wont strech i have a gehtto setup right now and ways there about 11 days old both have second set jsut comming in. looking healthy im going to be getting on tuesday at 1000 watt mh light and im going to use that 24/7 until there about 2 ft tall and then go from there but im curious when i get the MH ithe shop wants to sell the bulbs for 35 piece but at lowes they have mh and hps bulbs for 17 bucks are they the same i mena can i use those?..... and also now that im going to have MH on my hopefully future ladies how much faster will they grow ? will update with pictures in a feww days

Manure for fluffiness?add more perlite and some of thishttp://www.gardeners.com/Garden-Lime/FlowerGardening_FertilizersSoil,35-738,default,cp.html

i grow a few other plants and it wrks out well so i figured id give it a sot ive got perlite also

i dont wnat to use lime there stuff down the road with that

a 1000w mh is kinda overkill for a small grow like yours. even a 400w would cover enough area for 6 to 8 plants no problem, with a 600w you could have 10 to 12. and 1000w running 24/7 will cost you quite a bit.
how big of a space do you plan on growing in?

i have a room deicated to it i plan to have more then two bu fo now and starting small to elimante varibles

so to update my progress on plant is on its 5tgh set of leaves the other just puching the second so im hoping the slwoer one is female but whoe knows so today i purchased my lights i have a 1000watt hps and 1000 watt mh both have cool tubes and will be geting my intake and exahust fans tomrow i got a great deal on both these lights both for 240 !!!!!!!!! so any ways i wont be using either of these until the plants are about amonth uold ive have them under two cfl its pretty wipy but for now its gonna have to do but theres the update also thelights have 3ft reflectors on them fantastic people say its going ot be to much idk ive got plenty of room and easy way to keep it cool i can have my hand 6 inches from the cool tube and not feel the heat so idk well see how my first grow goes

i know have a grow journal if ou wnat to follow the grow i will get the link up ina biot

alright update did my first topping on my taller plant so the other ones can catch up also i Had a major heat problem and have got it under control and also raised my humidity up to optimum levels 44 % my temps range from 70-81 degrees never any higher and light cycle is 18/6 also the more humidity the more support plants need fyi for any one who dsnt know but big plant is now 12'' tal other is 5 and other ones are around 3 put 6 more undr ligts i made a little seedling box lined it with my lar and put 3 15e cfl and on 42 w in there heat the issue there but itll be more then enoug light for them so update in a few days when i get my tent ideal this is the best wat to go
