Hi, this is my first attempt at growing indoors, I grew outdoors once but its nothing to speak of, I did alot of reading on this site before I started, lots of good info here.
My plant, a Master Kush bagseed from a Medical Marijuana Club. Light, 125w 6400k cfl. 22/2.
7/13 - put in wet paper towel to sprout.
7/14 - already has root, planted in Hyponex soil and perlite, vermiculite mix.
7/17 - poked out of dirt, leaves opened
7/21 - transplanted in Fox Farm Ocean forrest w/ perlite and vermiculite.
7/25 - Added ghetto c02 generator (yeast/sugar/water)
7/27 - Transplanted to bigger pot due to roots sticking out the bottom, with FFOF and perlite, no vermiculite this time.
For nutes Ive used some bloodmeal tea I made but Ive only used it once, today actually. Temp is usually around 74 with the a/c on and 79-82 with it off, its usually on though, and humidity usually around 40%. Hows it look, any suggestions?

Heres one more pic of my growspace, Im kind of limited in height, If I hand my light as high as possible I get about 2ft from the top of the pot. I dont really want to outgrow this space so when should I flower it? And I plan on getting a clone from the Club when I switch the light over that way if this thing turns male at least Ill have the clone. And Im going to add more cfls adound it when it gets taller, I got a bunch of 42w 2700k bulbs from walmart for 97 cents each. And besides the bloodmeal I have no other nutes, so any suggestions would be appreciated.

very well done beginner grow space, and a healthy looking baby there.
Good luck to you.

Thanks , Im just not sure when to start flowering it, I dont want to outgrow my space, and Im still trying to decide what nutes to use for flowering, anyone have any ideas? I have a hydro store near me, Im just not sure what to get, Id like to use something simple, like I dont want to have to give it 10 different things.

Get a PPM meter to save 90% of your growing pains

nitroman · Jul 30, 2009

first off i wish you luck. some things you may want to consider is, is this seed feminized? if not you only have a 50/50 shot at a female which are not the best odds i say lol but if you are worried about your grow space you can always lst and mix it up with a lil topping as well to get more bud sites. another thing you can try is if you decided to go with topping and lst when ever you take a cutting clone it and then put it in another space after it roots then put it under a light for 12/12 to sex your plant if its female keep veging and train it to run around your chamber before you bud that way you will get a much larger yield and way more buds if you only grow it straight up then you will get one nice size bud and a few popcorn nugs. its really how long can you wait to allow your plant to get bigger or just get right after it

It looks to be a strong start. Keep it up man.

No its not feminized, just some Master Kush bagseed from the club. I was goint to top it but decided not to because I didnt want to stress it out too much, this is my first indoor grow so Ill be happy as long as it gets a little bud, plus Im going to buy 1 or 2 clones that are guaranteed female when I switch the light to 12/12

Heres a couple pics from today, the close up is pf the bottom leaves, they seem to be curling a bit, Is this something to worry about or am I just tripping?

Budgrowr · Aug 2, 2009

Well its been 2 weeks and 2 days since it poked out of the dirt and its looking ok I think other then the leaves curling a bit, does anyone know what that is? the first 2 pics are top view exactly 1 week apart, the others are of the leaf curl?? The last 2 pics are of an OG Kush clone I picked up from the club. It had some good roots on it so Im sure Ill see some new growth when they take to the soil

Any advice will be appreciated. Thank you

Budgrowr · Aug 2, 2009

So no one has anything to say about my grow. + rep for any advice. :bigjoint:

Minnestoner · Aug 2, 2009

Looks like a fan from Wal-Mart..... LMAO, i just started my indoor grow also, i have some clones coming from Cali, and ordering feminized seeds tomorrow from Nirvana, im using 4 cfl's and i went and got a grow light also, so i have plenty of light for my girls, im keeping the temp around 75 with a/c and without a/c its 80. Im so fuckin baked. Good luck homes

jndietz · Aug 2, 2009

As far as the leaf curling goes, I have found all that out the hard way. If the leaves are curling up, it could be a magnesium deficiency, or, a pH imbalance. I just read yesterday that magnesium deficiencies and too high/low of pH will have the same symptoms. Check your pH of your soil and adjust accordingly. I'm guessing its the pH (like my plants).

Budgrowr · Aug 23, 2009

Its been a while since I updated this, I have been busy, well my Master Kush Bagseed I started became male :cuss:

but whatever I still have the OG Kush clone I bought, and its looking great, I also just bought a White Widow clone on Friday. Here are some pics, the first one is from 3 weeks ago the others are from today.
How does it look :weed:

Thanks, This will be my first indoor harvest, So I hope It turns out ok.

Budgrowr · Aug 23, 2009

For light Im using a 125w 6400k, and 2 42w 2700k bulbs, I have a 125w 2700k bulb ordered and it should be here within a week, For nutes Im using Fox Farm Tiger Bloom and Big Bloom, for ph I have one of those dye testers and I have some ph up. I do plan on buying a nice digital one eventually, and a friend of mine is going to give me his ppm meter. But so far I think I have been ok without them.
