first closet grow

im here to get my experience built up. been doin research for over 5 months....so here u go
LIGHTS-got 3 13watt cfls, 2 6500k and 1 2700k for veg and then 2 2700k and 1 6500k cfls for flowering
SOIL-dollar store soil (budget & just experimenting)
POTS-goin for stealth so my seedlings r in a double stack 14oz styrofoam cup (slitsin the bootom of the top cup for excess water to drain into the bottom one) i plan to move them to some gallon size containers once they gain som estrength
SEED-unkown strain (bagseed?) planning on some auto widow if this crop does good
WATERING/NUTES-i water 6 hrs, or when soil is crusty dry 2inches deep, using sray bottles for control of water. usually 3 sprays of plain water and 2 sprays of my nutes( 1tsp of miracle gro all purpose plant food diluted in 1/2 gal of water)
TIME OF LIGHT-until the sex is visable im goin with 24 hrs light and then i plan on goin to 12/12 for flowering
got 3 sprouts goin now only 7 days from seed

Plants will show sex before you put them on 12/12...

Preflowers are one of the signs that you plant is ready to flower
The other sign is alternating nodes.

This is my first cfl grow also, good luck and happy growing!
