ok so im starting this a little late, but not too late, im growing 2 White Widow plants. the plants are at about week 2 into veg. I was being careless while taking a picture of 1 of the plants and the pot, well.. it tipped over and broke the stem. i buried it up to its "neck" in dirt and it seems to be recovering wonderfuly. moving on. their leaves are a nice green color, and seem to be smiling. they're definitly happy so far. i cant decide on how i'm gunna get this humitidy up but for now im using grapefruit juice containers and putting them on top of them. humidity levels were nice at the start only because it had just rained when they were starting to sprout, but now the humidity is staying around 34-40%. my medium is a mix of walmart-bought soil, and i mixed some ashes (from oak wood we burned one night) with it as well. never heard of anyone doing that so im seeing how it goes. The reason i tried that is because everytime we'd dump ashes in our yard, the damn grass would turn a beautiful dark green color right where the ash was, so hopefully these plants show me something from it. ok so im using a 400w HPS from start to finish, i know i know, go ahead and tell me, use a 400w MH instead for veg, however im broke and this is what i bought and thats what im gunna use. i also have 2 25w CFL lights mounted on the wall beside the plants for the blue spectrum part of the grow.. also got a random little black light sitting in there too, just i dont know why, but hopefully it'll turn the leaves purple or something. but anyways moving on, the plants have been on a 24 hour light cycle for those 2 weeks, and now i just changed it to 18:6 just to conserve a little electricity. i also started my NUts 2 waterings ago. im using foxfarm growbig fertilizer as my Vegging Nutrients. im using 1 teaspoon per gallon; 1/8 teaspoon per water bottle. =D and i think thats about it, besides the fact that i decided i'd start 1 more White Widow to go along with those 2 and it just germinated today, i just planted it along side, bob(plant1) and larry(plant2). haha they're random names, dont ask questions! anyways, heres some pics of the project thus far.
