ok,,this is the last of the Big Bud I ordered for my first grow,,I didnt wanna go all out with 20 plants off the bat,,so I was left with 6,,here they are,,in all there glory,,they are 18 days old,,,they are over 4 nodes,,barely,,I'm gonna top em all,,they are in Miracle Grow soil,,for Annuals,,the Veg and Bloom nutes,,are from Franks Magic Crops,,in Ontario,,they are his own blend,,he is a graduated old school Botanist,,so I cant give ya a fancy name like DNF,,or FoxFarms,,or TigerBloom,,but being almost 5 nodes high,,and only 4 inches,,I think it works,,I have given them nutes from day one,,1/8 th strength,,they are now at half strength veg nutes,,these plants are far ahead of my first and second grow,,second being almost done,,I have learned plenty here,,started with 2 halogens(yes,,wrong),,and no air or nutes,,quickly changed to a 400 watt hps,,now using a 600 watt hps,,for flower,,,finished first grow with one plant,,but got 5 and a half ounces,,hoping for more,,on 2nd grow,,with just one plant left,,and it does look better than first,,but this third will be the last in soil,,as I'd like to go with a no soil method,,for the fourth,,but back to the third,,they are 6 plants,,in a small veg cab with overkill venting,,believe me,,they are not suffering by any means,,there is 4 42 watt cfl's,,with full mylar in a small space of 16 inches by 16 inches,,by 28 inches high,,I get phenominal veg growth here,,I'll show more detailed pics as we go,,but there is already flowering arms growth that is clearly visual as you look at them,,this small space is vented by a bathroom exhaut fan,,20 bucks,,good for 45 cfm's,,air and temps are good,,humidity is at 45 %,,a lil low,,but tolerable,,,yes,,in one pot there are two plants,,I had 6 seeds,,and five pots,,so I pulled a FatalShot,,LOL,,on them,,oh well,,I'd appreciate any and all comments,,and promise not too freak out,,if you dont like something I did ;-)) ,,below are 2 pics,,the rest are on next page

Keep on Growin
