ok well the plants are all looking very healthhy no problems yet.... lighting is not very strong i have 4...40 watt flourescent lights and one 23 watt cfl..... while i am just trying to get a head start b4 i move these outside i also would like to see some adequate growth these lights aint cuttin it.... i ordered a t 5 it is like a flourescent light but brighter i believe should be here couple days along with some organic nutrients.....still no seeds from bcbud depot on the ones they owe me... plants are getting new sets of leaves and i have been giving them a small amount of water daily and a nice soaking once a week ........also no seeds yet from marijuana.nl seed bank i ordered some more from another bank a dozen blueberry beans.... i smoked some blueberry when i was visiting some friends in oregon.... i snapped a few pics i will post some more pics this weekend they should be much more growth i am hoping anyway.....the plants receive no nutes so far only bottled water i bought like 10 gallons from jewel and i only used like 2 so far.....the weather is absolute garbage here... as soon as it hits 60's and sunny i will start bringing them outside for a day here n there to get natural light... i have them on a timer 13 hours on ...11 hours off....the timer kicks on at 630 am ...kicks off 730 pm.... in may the sun rises at 615 and sets at 745 so they wont be stressed at all when they make move outdoors same light schedule that will get gradually longer until aug 1st....then days get shorter and shorter after aug 1st..... anyways i have been really lookin for a seed bank that has a auto flower in stock and not the low rider 1 i mean somethin with lil bigger yeild and better smoke ,, i am goin to cubs game today if the rain holds off so i will post mor epics this weekend......questions/ comments/criticism feel free i have grown plants few times but never actually harvested anything ... this is my first serious attempt at growing and there is so much i learn from reading posts and journals on this website knowledge always welcomed........go cubs!! opening day

well been a couple weeks but here are the updates ...i was not happy with flourescent light situation so i ordered and received the following....fox farm nutes..24" 4 tube t-5 light system ....400 watt hps/mh light... a small portable greenhouse roughly 3x2 ... now the plants that i started bc god bud and sweet dreams are looking great... i received 10 blueberry and 10 free australian blue seeds form planet skunk...i have also ordered some more seeds that will be here shortly.....the weather sucks here lotta rain...temps may hit 30 degrees this weekend so i will have to keep em under lights for now... i also ordered some mylar and i am in prrocess of making a bathroom vanity light fixture a 4 bulb supplemental light 42 watt flouroescent for my t5 which i plan on making into clones and seedlings space ... the light is kinda flimsy and reflector is not impressive perhaps i should have upgraded to a nicer 600 watt light here are some pics
