You guys are all taking this way too seriously, nothing is at steak here. bkbbudz sees my point, I've learned from this experience and I don't need to justify myself to the likes of mr sunshine. I know the next time I attempt this on my own it'll go a lot better because I won't restrict my...

Alright, alright, calm yourselves. Firstly, as I said earlier, the point of this was to see what I could do in my own house under 100 bucks and maybe learn a thing or two in the process. I disagree with mr smiley there, I've learned a lot as a result of this little endeavor. Failing doesn't...

I'm not sure I understand what your analogy is referring to...

Thanks again guys! I'm sure I'll be back soon, hopefully with some pics!

This exactly, I wanted to learn from this experience more than anything and let me tell ya I got more than I could've ever hoped out of it :)

I think I'll try to keep it alive just for fun, (and the challenge) they're not my only plants. These are just a little experiment I tried to do, to see if I could grow a couple plants from some mystery seeds in my house for under $100. Apparently, I cant haha Thanks for not goin to hard on me...

I agree with dannyboy, too much nitrogen. Ease off the nutes, best of luck.

Thanks for the quick reply, kinda rude but ok. I don't really want to start over until they're harvested or dead, do you have any useful advice as to how I might keep the bigger one alive (if you think it'll die)? Or at the very least a guess at why the leaves fell off so I know for next time?

Hello again everyone! :bigjoint:I posted here a few months ago about a couple of plants that were just starting up. I was concerned that one was growing significantly slower than the other. az2000 very quickly pointed out that it was just genetics which turned out to be 100% the case. Since...

I actually need to buy soil as well... debating going with a soil-less mix instead. Which would be easier in terms of controlling nutrients? Last thing I wanna do is burn or starve them, and I also like to do a good flush a couple weeks before harvest which was easy with hydo but idk about soil

Alright, any suggestions for flower?

Yeah that's what I'll do. How many do you think I'll need?

I don't really wanna spend more than $100 on the whole project if that's possible. A little over should be alright. Keep in mind I still need to buy nutrients and solve my smell problem too.

Yeah I know! But I favoured the cool color over the cool temperature. Everything in my house is really warm in colour. Haha I really don't understand why it's so hot I was very disappointed when I found out. How many CFLs do you think I'd need to use at once? Good to know, I'll take a look...

I can't look at the moment as it's in use and very hot! I did this because of a lack of adequate lighting. I do agree however, they should most certainly be separated as soon as I find a lighting solution. Like I said in the op I'm open to suggestions

Yeah, I thought about that... but I'm worried about temperature cuz unfortunately this cheap LED does give off a fair bit of heat when you reach an inch or 2 away. It's about 5w actually, 200 lumen. And it's not as cool as I'd like, I'd say probably a 2:1 but I'm not sure.

I hadn't considered that! Very interesting... Thanks, I certainly hope so too my friend ;)

Just planted the third one! Also here is a more updated pic: I've actually had to move the light away slightly because it's getting too tall...

Hello everyone :bigjoint: this is my first post on the forums here and it's also my first time growing without any fancy equipment. I've grown once before many years ago, while I was amongst a group of enthusiasts such as myself. It was a fairly high-budget project that turned out rather well...
