I figured since it was a nice day today I would give my baby some real light. 8-) So I put it right in front of my storm door and its lovin it. :mrgreen: Here are some pics. Enjoy.

Here is an update to my plant. This will be my week 3 and I think I may be ready to start flowering it soon because its getting pretty big now.

Sweet. :blsmoke: This is the only one im growing as of now so its pretty much my baby and I dont want to hurt it. Later on I will try my hand at 4.

Right now just 2 23w=100w cfl's. Once it starts getting a little bigger I will most likely get stronger bulbs or just more.

Hey guys im a fairly new grower and I was just wondering if I did this right. Let me know what you guys think. Thanks

So here are some new pics of my plant at the beginning of week4. I believe it finally back on track.:weed: Thanks to all for being so helpful and giving me great information. So all I did was get rid of the perlite and re-potted it, got better bulbs, got the ph balanced, and got some new nutes...

:lol: Yeah I know right. Especially when I start running more than 2 bulbs. Im just experimenting with my single plant now and then once I have done alright with it I will grow about 4 or 5 which are gonna require alot more bulbs.

I was under the impression that the lights should be left on 24/7. Thats only what I have been hearing. What you said makes sense though and I will look into it for sure. Thanks for that information tom_420.

Very nice clean looking set up.

Leave them on 24/7. Thats how the roots attain the necessary oxygen. Are you flowering the plants right now? I ask because you mentioned a light cycle. If your still veging you should be leaving the lights on 24/7 also.

:lol: Yeah i think thats what he meant.

Closetkiller how many cfls do you have on them and what wattage are they?

WOW. Thats a very nice baby. Everyones is looking very nice. Ill post some pics of mine monday cause mine was off track cause I was using some crappy lighting and the medium I was using wasnt letting my roots get to my solution. It should be back on track by then hopefully. Mine is also 18 days old.

I will get some new nutes for sure. Any particular brand you would suggest? I'll keep posting pics after the beginning of each week.

You wont need that timer and heater because during the vegetative stage you should really leave the lights on 24/7. I got a lil bit of the white foamy residue you were talking about but it went away and it didnt harm my plant. It was just a bit on the walls of my bucket. I think the bubbles...

Thanks for the re-assurance and info. I did hear some solids swishing around and i tried to shake it until there was very little. I guess I really should go buy some new nutes. I was using some called Ionic. Any suggestions on something better? I think your right bout the perlite because when I...

^^^ :o^^^ Very nice.

I have a question. The nutes I have been using were purchased almost 2 years ago and left in a storage building behind my house. When I finally decided to grab the bottle and start this project it was at night and it seemed like the solution was a bit frozen. Could this have anything to do with...

DAMN IT! Yours is coming along nicely. :clap: Mine is 16 days old using a bubbleponics system and it isnt anywhere near as big as yours. I must be doing something wrong. Great job though.

Here are some new pics with the new bulbs and plant re-potted without the perlite. Now all i need to do is check my ph but im gonna have to stop by the hydro store first.
