First grow/pc case-cardboard flower box

Hello all, this is my first grow. Its a clone from a strain called moby, I got it from the local compassios club for llike 20 bucks. The bagseed is off some super dank I can't remember the name of but it was a nice purp variety! I've built a pc grow box and just did a flower box from an old cardboard box(temp flower box) I got the clone Friday the 10th and it wasn't looking amazing but it was the shortest (tighter node spacing) and best looking. The pics are right after transplant and it has since lifted its leaves towardds the light and the color is better. Any thoughts on when to begin feeding? I'm going to make my own nutes from teas, but I just don't have the caash for the material. And I got some free stuff from a homie, more on that in a min.

the clone is still looking good, leaves are reaching for the light kinda. Normal? Also my two bagseeds popped above ground yesterday! One looked like it should have been upright by nowbut it looks like it may have had some heat issues? I may have had them to close to the lights :/ they look like they will be okay I hope ha ha
I got some organic nutes. They say root organics by adair or something? For veg and begginging of flower and its called like buddah grow and has a real earthy smell and deep brown muddy look. Anyone use this before? Ill get a pic up later. .

Oh the clone is under 2 27k 23w cfl and the seedlings have three of the same. Still waiting on cash for some 65k lights from newegg

Anyone with tips or advice is welcome!

It was going to be a 12/12 but I built the flower box(pics when I get home) and it has quite a bit of room so I think I'm going to veg them for at least a couple weeks.
Since its my first grow I want to first top the clone(I've heard you can take the topped clipping and make that a clone?)
And I want to fimm the two bagseeds.
All three will be LST'd tho.
Breeding seems to be something to do as well. I wouldn't mind trying to feminize my own seeds either.
 
Ill be doing a somewhat perpetual 12/12 from seed in my new PC grow case, which its pretty huge. Wish I could have a veg and flower chamber.
 
I thought about that but th case I made can only fit one plant so ill use it as a seedling/ beginning veg box perpetuals are awesome though. I am planning on doing a dresser or something similar on a perpetual cycle once I move again.
 
It would be gravy train time!!! Haha but sorry about no pics I got caught up with the girl(sushi does treat though!)
Here is the pc case with the seedlings(and I know I need to cover the pots but I'm gonna transplant to bigger pots so whatever.)
The two seedlings as well as the flower box with the clone in it.
The box itself is 21in.X22in.X31in. So I'm thinking four plants in flower at a time? I'm going for most efficient as possible so if four plants would be better thank two big ones or six small ones is better, any thoughts?
Last pic should be the nutes I got too.
As to those I added a small amount and used it to water the seedlings.(maybe a couple drops in 36oz of water)
and for the clone I did half strength and she seemed to take off, do I'm getting better measuring stuff to be more precise.
as always advise is welcome!

Okay so I got a new lady! Strain is called Charlie Sheen(aka crack kush) anyone know the genetics?
Anyways I think I've got a dificiency(sp) already in the clone but I can't find anything that matches what I'm seeing.
I only got like one semi clear photo of it. But it looks like the edges are going lightly yellow from the tip down and not inside the ridges. Any ideas?

Other than that they all look good. One seedling is already showing the next set of leaves after the first serrated ones :)

too drunk to read all that but I'm subbed and will go back tomorrow, I just want to know where did you learn about the term "flower box"
 
Couple actual questions tho doc.j

You think four flowering plants in 10in. Pots after a 2-4 week veg would be too much for my flower box to handle at one time? Its 21L x22W x31H inches
And
I'm having issues finding a ventelation system I'm 100% on. Pc fans are easy and cheap but a lot of ppl have noted their limited ability with carbon filters but others say they'll work. And the cage fans I've found are over 100 bucks. Any ideas?
 
For cab/micro grows I'm a hard core fan of ona gel, smells like a urinal cake, but hell of a lot cheaper, just use the reg pc fan and set a bottle cap full anywhere in there and you will have no stank
 
and youve never had bad tasting buds? jw cause again ppl day it makes your buds taste like the ona?
that'd be wayyyy easier than anything I've tried anyways lol thanks
 
I've grown with and without it, same strain, no taste difference, and actually you won't even need a cap full you need maybe a coke spoon full lol
