I'm doing my first grow. It's going to be in a closet and with CFL lights.

I just got the stuff yesterday and 2 clones today. I got 1 of Bubba Kush and 1 of Purps.

I dont know if I want to put a little box to put my ladies in. Or if I want to leave them just in the closet. I need to measure the dimensions.

It's pretty long and tall but very narrow.

So my bubba kush is drooping today. I just got it last night. I dont know if it's becuase of the fan I had on or what?

I also saw a bug with wings in my closet but I killed it. Don't know if it came with the clones?

I need to get water and soil for my plants. Is distilled water alright? I was going to go to Navlets today to pick up some organic soil.

I have a clone that's just in a cube. Am I supposed to drop that cube in dirt?

Im about to go get some soil. (Almost done finishing my car, replaced the rod bearings and stripped a stud in the exhaust manifold and had to take it to a machine shop after wasting too much time on it, plus its just hard to carry stuff on my motorcycle) I also gave them a little bit of water today and the BubbaKush(The big one) perked up a little already

lol yeah it's tuff.

Today I put both clones in new soil. I also weatherstripped my door. I made the little DIY reflector and added a few more CFLS as well.

Some of the leaves on the top of my bubba kush are curling up and at the bottom they're curling down

Here's a few pictures

you havent given them any nuts yet have you? Back off the water, make sure the temps are between 75-80. She should perk back up

No I haven't given them any nutes. I put her in soil yesterday that is organic without nutrients. It has: Peat Moss, Perlite, Pumice, Washed Sand. I got the soil pretty weed before I added the clone to it and I think thats what did it.

Should I leave my fan on 24hours? It's kindof big, but I put it on low and I have it on the opposite side of the closet facing the wall.

Temps have been right under 80
