Hey RIU!!!
IM very excited to announce that im doing my very first indoor grow this year!:clap:
I've done very well outside the past few years,so i wanted to have a for fun grow durring the cooler months. im going to be LST'ing the plants and topping so it should be interesting.

So my setup is fairly nice (i believe lol)
Its a nightstand 3.5X2X2
has a 42 watt CFL above all plants. 1-26 watt and 1-19 watt cfl on each side.

its only bagseed(cause im sketched out about shipping seeds to my address)
Its day 4 since a started to germinate the seeds, and they are already little seedings.
I transplanted them into their own Jiffy pots today.
I have them on 20-4 light cycle.
idk what the tmeperature is yet(im gettin a thermometer soon)

Please follow this grow.
+rep

pictures will follow soon

I finally got my camera to work again.
So heres some pictures of my babies.
I know its frowned upon to have 2 plants in one pot,
but im waiting for a few more days and which ever one is the biggest and healthiest
is going to live:clap:

I also changed the lighting around.
there is one 42 watt cfl above the plants
and two 26 watt cfls on the sides

Well heres the plants. They're starting to bush out prety nice
The smaller plant is really weird though becasue all the nodes are within an area of half an inch. How can i make it stretch more?

Enjoy the Pics :-P

That sucks, i wanted to start LST on it before it flowered due to the height of my box
Should i just top it at this point? if i want to keep it small

well if u want them short then its good that they are short because hey will stretch during flower...im not quite sure about LST or topping as they are still kinda small...are u planning on re-potting?
