This is my first grow i have researched a bit now i want to get my hands dirty :) my set up is 2 x 600w HPS powerplant grow lights, 1 x 8" exhaust fan attatched to an 8" filter and 1 x 5" intake fan, a T5 for babies and an electric oil-based heater for night time, grow space is about 2 square metres maybe a bit more.

Me and my friend have converted a garden shed into a growing area there is only one room for both veg and flowering. I am growing from seed and have germinated 15 seeds from the first 10 only 6 turned out well they are now 3-4 weeks old and are under the HPS lights. The other 5 were germinated last week and so far are looking healthy under T5.

I will need to flick them all to the 12/12 flowering stage at the same time what do you think is the best way to go about it?????
 
you could take a little of that black and white poly you used for the walls and section off a small part for the veg section.

just ghetto rig it as long as its light tight.

if not then theyre not far behid the other ones in size so you could get em under the lights and start topping or training the older ones for an even canopy.

either way best of luck!
 
yeah i moved the T5 up an inch or so an moved the HPS down u think that will train the babies to grow up an the older ones to stay a bit shorter??
 
youre better off just lettin em grow.

if youre not gonna make the additional veg section then just flower them when you do the others.

also keep the lights closer to try to increase the branching of the plants so you get more off them. it doesnt matter how tall a plant is just how many branches producing buds it has.

id recommend topping. itll give them all a chance to catch up and you dont stretch your plants out!
 
yeah topping is cutting the top cola so it branches off and gets 2-4 instead of one. makes the plant work on its horizontal growing instead of its vertical

also there is FIM ing. which is cutting off almost all the new growth but just enough so it grows back so you have a for sure 4 colas.
