I'm about 5 weeks into my first grow. Started a seed outside about 5 weeks ago and moved it inside on the 6/4. It's going ok, a few bumps in the road so far.

Running 3 - 26w 6500k and 3 - 26w 2700k right now during veg. Will be going to 6 - 26w 2700k for flower. 4" fan venting out with passive air intake seems to be doing the job for now.

Going to be switching to 12/12 pretty soon, don't want to waste alot of time on it if it's a male.

Thoughts, comments or help encouraged!

Here's a pic from the 5th:

Nice going.
Are you doing LST on it, what's that string for?

For nutes i'm using Jack's Classic and the other Jack's for flowering (forget the name off hand). I am also using RO/DI water, tds of about 3ppm. Should I be expecting any micro nute probems from such pure water? Soil is straight Scott's Premium Potting Soil. I did get a bag of Hyponex potting soil, which I have two seedlings going in (just a few days old) right now. I did mix perlite in with the hyponex soil, about 75% soil/25% perlite.

Thanks /b/, yes, trying LST. String is just keepin' the stem straight.

Whoa, why is it bending so much?
Sorry for the noob question, lol.
It doesn't look like anything is pulling on it.

Ohhhhhh ok, those pictures definitely make more sense now.

2 main colas and LST, sounds promising.

Also, it's growing fast as fuck.

I'm hoping it'll take off now in flower, as up until now seemed to be pretty slow to me. That overnight growth re-energized me a bit though. Here's hoping for a lady!
