My first grow!!

Hi guys, I just joined the site because I finally did it, I started my own little grow closet!. I've been meaning to do this for some time now but never had the opportunity. I'm recently out of school (too many people around to grow in res and in student houses) and really looking forward to growing and smoking my own stuff.
I've been smoking for many years now and I'm getting tired of paying money for shitty/dank buds so a friend of mine gave me a head start with a couple of clones that are already about a month old.. a White Widow and a Master Kush. Not bad at all ;D
I purchased a 250 watt ballast that came with a reflector and 2 bulbs, one HPS and one MH conversion bulb. The MH convo bulb is perfect for vegging, plus I figure it'll save the life of the HPS until I start to flower them.
I'm starting to give them nutrients for the first time this week, a 20-20-20 "plant starting" mixture..with the ultimate goal of getting a 3 month cycle going so hopefully these puppies get nice and bushy, quick ;D

Anyways, heres some pics. Happy growing/toking, suggestions welcome btw, later.



Some residual light from the closet, gotta get some weather stripping or something.... eventually.


The setup--> Visqueen plastic all the way around with adjustable straps suspending the light. Power supply is up on the shelf (possible vegging area once I have to start flowinging in the bottom.)


You can really notice the white/bluish ting of the MH conversion bulb.


Master Kush on the left. White Widow on the right.

Looking good, I am also growing an OG Kush clone. With my clone, I submerged the cube into the soil, I am not sure If there are pros or cons about this. There is a small amount of discoloration on a couple leaves, have you kept your PH levels in range?

Check out my journal with OG Kush!

Noticed this too. Could be the nutes 20-20-20 is a tad bleh.

Thanks for the observations. I`m definitely going to have to look into the PH levels.. I just transplanted them so I figure I`ll give it another couple of days to see if their colour improves first.
