First CFL grow..PC CASE

hello potheads..first time doing this so i decided to do it in a pc case bcus i live with moms..i had everything i needed lying around in the house so i built the shit..i have no idea what the strain it is found the seeds under my bed so if you have any idea please let me know.. but here is some info on it..

-3 26 watt cfl (2-6500k,1-5000k)
-had 1 42 watt 2700 lumen but broke going to replace in a little
-intake and outtake fan
-case isnt really that big so i been doing alot of LST
-scotts potting soil.. MG plant food ( was at walmart and had no idea wich one to get )

the small one is 1 week and 5 days
the big one is 3 week and 5 days (topped, LST)

its 5 days into flowering (12/12) and still have no sign of sex

one problem is i feed both the plants very little of miracle grow plant food (first time) after awhile the tips of the leaves turned browned so i just been giving them water for now but since im going into flowering should i go ahead and give the big one the nutes?? and i been having problems with bugs i had little white things eating the the leaves there was some little black and white looking things crawling around to but it isnt that serious yet but how can i fix the pest??

thanks for any help

and this is my first time doing this and i just wanted to expirment with it because im getting tired of these fake dealers selling skimpy sacs so i need to grow my own shit

waht is the NPK on the nutes? It looks good man as you said it looks to have a little nute burn. Also maybe some heat stress. Ummm.....idk about the bugs but there is a pest post somewhere around here.

i looked on the back of the bag and it said 24-8-16..i read somewhere when the tips turn brown its low on potassium but idk..ty

Ya use those nutes very lightly. Those MG nutes can be really harsh on the plants.

i will and thanks for the help..i try to water every other day but should i give the nutes like twice a week???

Start out with 1/4 strength nutes every other feeding. And then just slowly work up to about 1/2 every feeding but slowly.

dude take that plant out of the clean container D:
the light will BURN your roots.

the pic with the clear container is old i had put tape all around it so it shouldnt be that bad now but since then the small one growed so fast...i just got done looking around the big plant and i noticed at the top of the plant under neath the new growth i saw a little little little white hair i dont know if it is what it is but im just going to wait and see what happens... i could be seeing shit after the 5 blunts i smoked

I was watering like that every other day maybe every 2 days an the plants looked good but growth just seemed blah. The next watering I did a bit different I took each plant out an into the tub they went, i slowly watered them until i would get a trickle out the bottom. When putting them back into the box I could tell a big difference in the weight of each pot. Holy Damn the next day every plant looked like it put on almost a weeks growth. I keep track of how much water i give them, they where getting under watered by about 1/2 a liter... oh well, I learned a lesson.

Where you diluting the nutes before the tip color change? robbzilla has good info!

hey cransi..thanks for stopping by...i gave them nutes once during vegg and thats when the tips starting turning brown but its only on the old leaves but all the new growth seems to be doing good and when i water i always make sure water comes out the bottom... when i watered last night i gave them little nutes and this morning when the lights came on i noticed alot of growth because the plant is almost touching the lights... and you and robbzilla has been alot of help thank u!!!

just wanted to come by and post some pics of what its looking like now still waiting on it to show some sexiness to me#2 showing where i topped it#3 my little one

in the first pic you can see at the bottom the leave is turing yellow and brown and curl up some..is it alrite to go ahead and cut it off??? or just leave it and let ms mary handle it...if theres anything wrong with anything please let me know and tell me how to do it better cus this is my first...ty

im in week 2 of flowering and got little white hairs growing every where and i added a 26w 65ook on the side hopefully this will help get fat buds..right? or do i need to switch to 27k?...the second plant turned out a female to but i have no idea what to do with her because there isnt room for the big plant and the new light so i turned it into a ghetto table lamp grow..i might just trash her anyone want a free plant?

use 2700k for flowering. just lst the taller plant and take out that extra bulb. what are your temps looking like?
