First Indoor Grow/Sour Deisel from seed

Hello, this is my first grow in my closet. Soil Grow. 2 fluorescent lights 18"&24" started me off. I then purchased a 6" fan, 1 7500k 100w CFL, 3 2700k 100w CFL, 4 6500k 75w CFL. I've been using a small amount of 15-30-15 plant/tomato food in distilled water + a few drops of lemon juice since distilled water is completely neutral on the pH scale. Buckets are on the shopping list for tomorrow since they somehow slipped my mind today even though I had a huge bag of soil in the shopping cart. Once they are all transplanted and situated I will be getting more lighting, still unsure of what I will get, and if they survive long enough I will attempt an install of a proper ventilation system.

Well I just paid 16$ for shipping for a Botonicare sample pack. Its kewl how they let you pick 4 items to try out of their many items. I went with the Pure Blend Pro( Grow, Bloom, Soil, and Tea). Just wanted to post to have a time frame on delivery because I wont be counting the days lol. I will post new pics of the plants progress either tonight or tomorrow, 2 have been over watered and are drooping (OOPS! MY BAD) not a big deal I started with a lot just for this reason, trial and error.

Here ya go, a mystery seed (1 of 2 growing) that only has 4 shoots the leaves on the 3rd node. Im interested to see what the 4th node will look like.

Pics, one has a great smell starting already when you get up close.

Hey all, update time! 12 plants alive still. I think I overwatered 2 of them slightly because they seem stunted, so I went and set myself up a dwc in one of my 5 gal butckets. I threw one of the runts into a sliced n diced yogurt cup and widdled out a hole for it in the lid. I shit you not the roots were growing for the water in about 20 hours and the plant started looking a lot better. I couldn't get ALL of the dirt off the root ball but most of it came off and the moisture is wicking up into the peatcup I tore into pieces to use as my hydroton until my ebay order of netcups and hdroton and rockwool get here. I also ordered some more nutes because I have no idea how long Botanicares free 16$ sample will take to get here. I want to get a ppm tester but am sketched about ordering something so fragile because I worked at UPS and they just throw your packages like they don't give a fuck( I got let go after asking about the harsh handling of peoples goods). So Ive checked Lowes,Menards,Walmart,and meijers but no luck, not even digital ph meters. If anybody knows of any types of stores that might carry meters feel free to let me know. New pics will be taken when the net cups and hydroton get here.

NETCUPS and HYRDOTON came today! So as I promised...., PICTURE TIME! Here ya go

Botanicare came yesterday, mixed 2tbs ProGro , 2 tsp Liquid Karma, and 1 tsp ProBloom in 1 gallon of water. Fed a few and waited about 6 hours and checked and they had grown and looked great so fed the rest. Might try transplanting the one today out of the 3 gallon pot so there will only be one in it. Found a blade of grass growing in it,(Thanks Miracle Grow!) ripped that out. New pics in a few days

Well I pulled one of the plants out of the 3 gallon pot. The roots were starting to tangle in the middle of the pot, threw it in dwc so hope it survives and thrives.

Nice looking grow. Over-watering is every newbie's mistake (I'm still doing it on my third grow at times).

Most experts will tell you to ditch the aluminum foil and go with the white walls behind it. Foil does a terrible job of evenly reflecting the light whereas flat white does a better job.

Do you have any idea of what light-spectrum you have going with your CFL/florescents?

I have 1 7500k, 4 6500k and 2 2700k cfls. dunno what the tubes are running exactly. Gonna grab a few more cfls soon then order a 600w hps when it gets close to flower time. Im looking into finding a hole saw to borrow at the moment to install some ventilation, I leave the door open for now so am going to install exhaust first. A fan and carbon filter are next on the list of shit to buy. And ya the tinfoil is coming down the next time I take the plants out to rerun the lights and wiring, good looking out.
