CuriousKinds, first (experiment/observational)

First extended attempt at sustaining a plant in a contained indoor environment.
Not trying to be professional, not expecting fancy buds, only wish to observe plant grow under the conditions I provide it with.

Started them in a 15 gallon rubbermaid tub and later moved them into a 55 gallon. 6x 100watt daylight CFLs, MG potting soil, tap water/cal-mag water

Past few days.
The plant on the right has been in for a little over a month,
the smaller one for a few weeks less.
Decided to untie and see what would happen.

Been feeding them with FF Grow Big, and added a 120mm intake fan at the bottom of the box.

Well, I don't care much to find out what my apartment complex policy on pot plants is.
I pitched up a bed sheet tent around the box (this was to help light proof), & added ventilation ducts to take air in and funnel it out through a few dryer sheets.
Picked up a few other feeding supplies at my local grow store.

Thanks for stopping by my journal earlier. Loving your grow CK. Nice and clean, organized and detailed. Subbed and following along. What strain are you running? Keep up the good work, I'll keep checking back. Peace
 
Hey, you found my journal! Thanks! I worked hard on my box, certainly proud of how it has taken shape. Always room for improvement. Life is about learning! As for the strains of these two plants, I wish I could tell you but I simply don't remember. Both of them were bag seeds. I can tell you, the medicine that the bigger of the two plant's (usually located on the right in pictures) seed was in, was unimpressive. I believe the harvester got excited about 2-3 weeks before he should have. The smaller plant on the left came from medicine that was out of this world! Didn't write down the name of the strain when I found it (dang it) but I do know it was good enough to keep it isolated from the other seeds.

Thanks for stopping in! :leaf:
 
Trying to keep things even a bit!
