new closet grow

well here is guys my new closet grow, I got one white widow 1 sour diesel and the one in the middle of the clone. I'm completely new to this and it's going to be my first time. Started off with t5 lamp but gonna try metal hide for vedge and hps for flower so lets hear son ideas..

If the one in the middle is a clone you bought, you should treat it for bugs asap. Dealing with mites or root aphids on a first grow is the last thing you want. Do some searches on how to take care of that. Prevention is better than the cure...

Other than that don't give it nutes for at least 3-4 weeks, don't overwater, and keep temps over 70 and under 82ish if you can. Good Luck

looks pretty good! how tall is the closet? what watt are you running? imo theres nothing better than MH/HPS lighting, same with the flowers of the sea! hm grows coral better than any other kind.

The clone was from my buddy who also grows indoors i checked it out and put it in fresh soil and as fir my closet its 6.5 feet tall .

I was running a t5 at first but i switched to a mh because my friend who has alto of experience suggests it. A small setup but we will see how it goes i have it in happy frog soil and gonna use fox farm nutes . The clone is Alaskan grinch so we will see how she does.

Although Im curious how close can i keep a mh lamp to prevent stretching??

I would put the light about 18" away from your plants to start but you can get within a just over a foot probably. Best to just put your hand next to the top of the plants, if it feels too hot for your hand it is too hot for the plant. Put the smaller plants on a box or another pot to get them to within a similar distance from the light as your clone.

looks happy!

i suggest switching to air or geo pots, especially if you plan to leave your babies in them for a long time. This prevents a problem called spinout, which is usually tagged along with any bucket normally used for house plants.
there is a product called spinout which is like this copper ion paint, i hear it works great for soil, but I like the smart pots because it increases watering frequency and i can suspend it with the handles and blow air underneath it and the air will help feed the roots extra oxygen, resulting in more bud!

wow thanks bro! gonna get a few of them . and as for soil do u think happy frog is good?

Happy frog is good but when you transplant consider putting them into FFOF with a good dose of perlite, epsom, and dolomite lime.

Is It possible to mix happy an ffof? And i appreciate all the help bro.

Yes, you can mix them.
