Hello rollitup.org! Im a noob when it comes to farming, first grow/for fun and now I actually enjoy growing. I started two and a half months ago and planted some good bag seed. I planted them in potting soil, and fed them miracle grow after sprouting, watering only when needed as per the dirt dries. They have been growing in a kitchen grow window. I think there starting to flower as I can see lots of new stems forming off of the main ones. So I have decided to try to flower them in my closet with a 250 watt set up with reflector and continue to give some nutes I picked up rated at 10-15-10. I was reading the new to growing guide posted by widow maker, (nice post) and didnt see any advice or directions for a transfer of this sort. Any advice some senior members could give on transfering/grow set up? Here are some pics of what my not so green thumb has produced so far...

Thanks for any input!

put them under your light.. simple as that. maybe sure it's not too hot, and they can get fresh air in the closet.. also make sure its light tight. set light for 12 hours on 12 off, and in the off period make sure they get no light.

Man i wish i could help, but like you need answers to your questions, you might be able to help me. Cus it seems that your way ahead of me in the game. Im in the beginning, the true beginning! I got my seeds out of the dirt and there growing but they have gotten like a couple of inches tall each and now they have slowed down completely. What kind of light do i need and how often should i water them?

hey knife, your plants slowed down because they are stretching hard for light, that looks like a cfl in the picture, move it closer as soon as you read this, i mean all the way up to them... then go get more of them or a better light! for that many little seedlings they will survive off this light for a few more days, if you move it closer!. move it closer and get more! water when soil is almost all the way dry to the bottom!

Ya Knife your light isnt cutting it man those plants are stretched to hell. Go buy yourself a 400 watt Metal halide, you can find them on hightechgardensupply.com for 145 +/- depending on where you are shipped to your door, Comes with remote ballast reflector and a blub, now thats a hell of a deal if you ask me. IF you do decide to get the light go out and buy 3 gallon containers and transplant those into them, cover the stem up pretty high with dirt to compensate for the stretching On some of those it looks like you could go up 2-3 inches on the stem.
