Hope you've all had a good long weekend, outdoor growers must be lovin the rain!

Didn't expect things to go as quick as they have so I'm totally unprepared, only been a week since I started germinating and she's already out of the soil! Got a bit of a gangsta grow going on in a cardboard box with a windscreen sunshade thingy from halfords and a shitty fluoro bulb lol temps and humidity aren't too bad at the moment 25C/60% lights on and 20C/55% lights off, today is her first full day under that light, she was on the windowsill, south facing, which i think was making her stretch like a mofo, she doesn't seem to have gotten any taller today and i filled up her cup with a bit more soil and gave her a spritz. Goodies have been ordered and will hopefully be here before the end of the week, really need to get that light ASAP, once that is in will start off the ortega's I got last week.

Anyway here she is, btw her name is Celia.

i have 6x lowlife ak47 and 1x lemon skunk that i germed 2 and a half weeks ago which i then planted into garden soil with top dressing. Its been two weeks since theyve sprouted. They girls are in 1 litre pots in my garden but are just about an inch tall. None of the plants have grown their second second set of leaves fully. Is this normal growth?

Found some spidermites on a few of the ladies last night!!!! Thats what the little white dots on top of leaves were. Lifted leaves over and the little bastards were all over. Sprayed some neem oil on them and cut 3 leaves that were more than 50% damaged. Looked alright today so far. I think the plants had them at the dispensary and I just didn't know what I was looking at.

Sounds revolting, think I'll pass on that one lol omg the smell alone would make me :spew:

Anyways, got a new light set up going, its a 30W 6500k 1650 lumens cfl bulb that fits into an ordinary security light. Was the only thing I could find that was remotely suitable, will see how it goes as a veg light, I'll also be adding some 40W T9 circular daylight fluorescents when my cousin the sparky has the ballasts built for me which will add another 2400 lumens. At the moment the light is resting on the lid of the propagator but she only has about half an inch before she touches the top so going to have to sort a veg box before I have to take the lid off, wont be able to control the humidity in the cardboard box lol. At least she seems to have stopped stretching, new light going to be used when she wakes up, not sure how its going to affect temps yet but I hope she'll like it a bit more.

Northern California. I checked all plants, out of the 10 I have 7 were good. Helps that I know what I'm looking for now. Jorge Cervantes medical grower's bible was a huge help. Still dealing with heat issues. I'm going to attach another fan to pull heat out of light.
