I'm growing super skunk, and AK48. The one plant I have posted is about 2.5 to three weeks in from seed. I have them vegging under T5's, and will be put in the flowering room under two 600w hps's. I will have co2 running, and it will be controlled. The PH stays in between 5.8 and 6.1. I'm feeding them once a day for 5 minutes at a time. I'm using flora nova grow, and bloom, with floricious bloom, and diamond nectar. Like I said this is my first grow and I invested alot of money so any advise would be help full. Also how do you guys think the plant on the first pic is coming along for 2.5 weeks I see some peoples plants on the board twice as big after 2.5 three weeks. Thanks.

wow, that is a nice setup! What that set you back? 2k? Or did you go the craiglist route? Lol, I envy you when I was just starting 6 months or so ago I did hydro and wanted that system bad, but I opted for ebb and flo in a Botanciare table. Also I dicked around with lights and went through several systems before I just got a digital and appropriately vented hood. That is a tight setup. Nice. (I have since switched to organic soil, the fact that I still had cotyledons growing a month or more in makes me want to stay)

I see now that when I was in hydro I thought I had healthy plants. But they were not. Maybe just the hydro way of pushing our plants to perform. Anyway, good luck. I also used rw and it was a bitch to get the watering right first. I am sure you know. Cool.

I looked again at your pics. Nice plants. No burn, that is hard to do. Even burning mine a little I produced better shit than I had ever been able to find. So I am sure you spent well. Remember to veg a long enough time too. With eight and those lights I would go for some mid sized trees.

dont worry if others look taller before u even notice ur plants will be bigger n badder then any pics because itll be in ur grow room!
leave it in veg untill it stops gettin more sets of leaves... like it stops going from one leaf to 3 leaves to 5 leaves and so on... so once its got sets of 7 or 9 or watever consistantly u could start flowering no problem.... your set up looks really nice im jealous good luck to ya

Those are three gallons? I am thinking that 4-5 weeks or they might get two big. You might want to get another estimeant. Right now I am working with seven gallons and a 2 month veg. Previuosly I was 4 in rockwool. I vegged a month. Somewhere in there. You will notice after a month how the plant starts to lool suddenly more mature.

thanks everybody for the kind words here are some more pics at about three weeks. I will be adding more as these beauty's grow. I'm about a month away from putting them into the flowering room.
Here are some more pictures. I have to start flower in about two more weeks, because I'm moving out of the location I'm at and that will give me about 9 to 10 weeks to flower and harvest. What do you guys think? Also here my co2 set up I just put it together. I'm really excited about the co2 I hope it helps. The controller and monitor keeps it between 1200 and 1500 ppms.
