Ok I was given some seeds from a good friend I work with.Some are 20 yrs old.He only saved the ones from really good smoke.Some bc bud strains,as well as other good unknowns.Its kinda exciting to not really know yet what they are.they are all around 3 weeks old.I started them in jiffy pellets after germ.then transplanted them into fox farm original planting mix.3 of them in the middle of tray are from recent indica bagseed.At 1st the 3 indicas(that germed 1st)stayed short.the others grew twice as tall in a short time compared to the 3 indicas.it worried me that I had sativas that would grow tall to fast:o Now that there a lil' bigger they all look mostly indica to me.1 has really fat leaves compared to the rest:weed:I made the light hoods myself (alum.trim coil)and mounted the fixtures from the light reflectors you can get at the depot for $6.50.Im using 26w 6500k cfl's.I have 4 in 1 hood and 6 in the 1 over my bubbler/cloner.And 2 over my mother plant.I have 3 fans of various sizes to move air.I also have a bath exhaust vent with a duct to mount in the window to blow cooler outdoor air in to keep temps lower.I average 75-80.heres what they looked like to start and leading up 2 today.Any comments or suggestions are very welcome:-D

looking fantastic man, is that reflector you have a DIY or did you buy it like that, the reason why I ask is because it looks like there are CFL hanging from inside

LOL reading is good.

He already said they were home depot reflectors which he mounted fixtures on for CFL's

I made the light hoods myself (alum.trim coil)and mounted the fixtures from the light reflectors you can get at the depot for $6.50.Im using 26w 6500k cfl's.I have 4 in 1 hood and 6 in the 1 over my bubbler/cloner.And 2 over my mother plant.

Thanks doobiee,so the lil' ones started to look a lil unhappy.They havent had any nutes yet and I forgot the grow big at the hydro store the other day.So I watered them with a pinch(literally) of miracle grow to tide them over.Here they are 3 days since the last pic and they are pretty happy about it.Soon I need to get them onto a bigger platform with more lights.My buddy is adopting a few.He's starting his 1st own garden. Check em out:leaf: the last pic is the lil' ones with my mother plant.the second mother plant is 1 week into flower right now.

OK heres the lil' ones @ 4-4 1/2 weeks old.Theres 9 now.My buddy who hooked me up with the seeds adopted 3 and I gave him 2 Jane clones for good measure.Theyve been drinking a gallon of h2o with a pinch of mg every 3-4 days.Soon I will have ff grow big for them!There are 2 that are bigger and growing faster than the rest(maybe males?)I gave my buddy one LOL Hes new to growing so I want to teach him to know the difference when sexing time comes. Soon Im going to transplant them to bigger containers to go to the end in.I might flower a couple in a week or so. The 3 outside the tray are Jane clones.There bouncing back nicely.
I had to make more room for them in the closet to keep the leaves from overlapping eachother.Heres some pics:leaf:

Any reason why you have the sticky traps upside down on top of your pot in this picture? :lol: Hey growtech,good eye! lol We have small gnats where we live.they hatch out of the soil,as Im sure you already know.So by putting them upside down facing the soil.As they hatch and go to emerge from the soil they come up and get trapped before they ever take flight:idea:It works,trust me! A member on here told me that trick.We also have some pinned on the walls in there in various areas.I hate those damn sticky traps,but gotta control the lil' shits.Weve got them to a minimum now.:weed:
