@Chromulan: Yeah, sorry about the lack of updates lately. It's been growth as normal. @Drio: Thanks for the compliments. Also, yeah I'm keeping the 42W CFL's around 2 inches away. Final height? From the base of the stem to the top of the plant, probably no taller than 3.5 feet. Day 29: So...

Day 24: Both plants are growing well still. Hazel is getting nice and bushy - I hope she starts to get vertical soon. I might move the lights an inch or two further away to encourage a bit of stretching. Eve is getting big too, actually. She's much less bushy than Hazel, but she might actually...

Day 21 Okay, so it's been a few days since an update. Let's recap: Eve is still growing slow, and Hazel is growing well. I topped her today! Take a look at some pictures. You'll see Hazel all grown, then her after my topping. 3 pics: 1. eve and hazel, before topping hazel 2. eve and hazel...

Like the title says. I used Uncle Ben's method - I wanted 4 colas. He said "the node where the cotyledons (baby leaves) attach doesn't count. " The thing is, at that exact same height I also have 2 fan leaves coming out perpendicular to the baby leaves. Does it still count as a node? If so, I...

Day 16: Vegging continues. I will be adding nutrients in the next watering, which will be in about 4 days. I realize I could probably add some now, but the soil is wet as it is, and I don't want to overwater. Hazel looks a tad droopy as it is, but I'm not sure if that's just because she is...

Day 14: Week 2!!! Eve is getting worse a bit (not that I care...), but there are some brown-ish spots appearing on one of her original two fan leaves. It's not heat stress, and I don't really know why. pH? Maybe. I'm pretty sure I pH-ed the water just fine though. Hazel! She's growing, but...

Day 13: No photos or anything for day 12 - it was just growth as usual. Today I gave Hazel a thorough watering, and I tied her stem up a bit. I did this because my orientation of the bucket for the first 3-4 days made the stem originally grow out at an angle, and I wanted to correct the...

Day 11: Growth as usual. Eve is growing slowly, and Hazel is continuing her nice and fast growth. Now, I transplanted Hazel (big one) into that 5 gallon pot like 8 days ago. I haven't watered her since I thoroughly watered the original soil. I haven't seen any signs of droopiness or anything...

Day 10: Hazel is my favourite - end of story... haha Eve's growth continues, at a slightly faster pace. Her brown spot became more defined, but I think it's fine now after I moved the light away, since the leaf perked up, so she was obviously scared from the light. Eve is my guinea pig though...

Day 9: Things are going well. Hazel is really taking off I think! I don't have much else to say. Eve is still slow, but is still growing every day, so I'm not complaining! I noticed an ever so faint brown spot on her largest (and closest to CFL) fan leaf. I know the soil is pH-ed okay, and the...

Thanks for the advice! I actually read around the forums, and did just that after work today. Day 8: Well, I took off the foil today. I hope 24 hours of darkness was at least semi-effective. I just couldn't stand having all this foil around the girls, so I took it off! I mixed a weak hydrogen...

If I had 2-5 min, I'd just sit there. When the cops came, I'd say "yes, I'm growing 2 small personal plants for my own consumption, right this way"... Well actually, I'd deny things unless they actually had a warrant. After that, I'd just let them do whatever they want. Hell, I've got no record...

Yeah, I can see things picking up already. Well, at least I can see noticeable growth everyday! Day 7: Eve is finally starting to grow a bit faster, so hopefully that trend continues. Hazel is growing fast now, or at least fast compared to my newbie standards! Today I noticed some green...

Thanks for the support! Yeah, last time was rough... Day 6: So, no post for day 5 because nothing really happened. I now have both plants into larger pots, having transplanted the second one yesterday morning. It seems to be lagging behind in growth - maybe it's still a bit stressed from the...

Day 4: I think the transplant was a success with Hazel. She demonstrated some growth since the transplant, so that's what I'm gauging it off. The other plant (Eve - yes I ripped the name off some other guy's grow journal - credit to him, haha), seems to need a transplant too. I can't see her...

Day 3: Alright, so after seeing the tap root come out of the one in the larger, more shallow pot, I transplanted it to the big 5 gallon. It looks like overkill, but I guess it had to be done. The plants are getting bigger and better, but I'll be relieved once 24 hours passes and the...

Too late, lol... I just gave the new soil a good watering, then made a hole, did the transplant, then didn't water any more. Cmonnnn pull through you little super lemon hazer!~

well I just transplanted it now to a 5 gallon, lol.... it looks like such overkill right now, but i hope it works. The root tip was a slightly diff. colour thanthe root (a bit darker), but I hope she survives!!!

Hey all, So my seedling is on Day 3, and her tap root is coming out of the bottom of the pot. It's kind of a shallow pot - the soil is probably about 10 cm deep. Here are some pictures: You can see how I have it propped up for now. Will the tap root stop growing for a bit until I transplant...

Let the thread resume! Using two new seeds (both SLH), I'm on: (New) Day 2: I planted two new seeds, and on Day 2, they are both going well (I think)! I didn't use rockwool this time, and I monitored my pH better when I gave it the initial watering... Temp is stable at 70 deg F, there is a...
