and i already did give a good watering after transplant. i always do. im going to buy 3 4 foot 2 light t12 fixtures and add my 7 existing bulbs to the sides. stay tuned and keep an eye our for when i add them :) time to smoke me a fat bowl of some Earth Og out my biohazard bong with a couple of ice cubes and pass out.
t12s suck as far as usable light goes, try t8s and if you can afford it get a t5 fixture.

ive heard t12s are better then t5s if you dont wanna spend the money. plus you can have t12s so close they touch bulbs and they dont burn. i have 2 2700k bulbs 40w and 2 6500k bulbs 40 watt. i also have 1 t8 15 watt cool white bulb on the side where my smaller plants are. and 7 mixed 2700k/6500k 23 watt cfls. here it is

read up on their lumen output, i think t8s would have been just as cheap/cheaper if anything. t5s are expensive, but give out the most usable light. i think i had t12s for my clones a long time ago, it didnt get hot but it just didnt seem like enough light for em. and good job mixin the spectrum, that really works well in flower.

damn what brand of bulbs are you getting? that doesnt sound like the t12s i used to have, may have got better over the years though. i can rarely find those anymore either, all i see at lowes is t8s.

sounds like it should, just hope it emits usable light. you got the right spectrum so you should be good.

thanks sour. and yahh i know i seen them big ass 2700k cfls at homedepot. i love home depot its so awesome going there i never want to leave haha. and the t12 bulbs also have a way bigger surface area. t12 compared to t5 t12 is huge! so i guess thats why t5's say they are stronger but they arnt as wider as t12's its more of a full coverage of the plants, like how light would be outside

Looks like the transplant went pretty good :) Doeasn't really look like there are any signs of stress.:clap:
yah i guess i just trimmed the roots just right on accident haha probly helped cause it was in like clay like soil the very first time i ever had in a pot. and thats what fell off now its got all fresh soil. also this plant doesnt look sativa yet it doesnt look indica its probly hybrid my guess. but its growing really short and bushy. i was trying to remember what bud i had smoked when i planted it along time ago and i think i remember it was some bubba and it looks like bubba leafs so idk

Yeah, I started a bag grow from some corn i smoked a while back, and they're starting to look a lot like yours are. I'm doing this one all natural for the first month or two, and once they get big enough, I'll be moving them into a more hydroponic type set-up. Haven't posted a grow journal yet, but I will be here in about a week, once I get some replacements started for the two with stunted growth.
:leaf:

yah, at first it looked more sativa now its looking more indica. but its def a hybrid. i love the 7 leaf fan leafs, and the flowers are really showing now. how long do you think until ill be able to tell sex.. i know since my nodes are smaller if its a male i wont be able to tell because the starting seeds will be small, i know if its a girl ill see for sure white hairs. its been 5 days since 12/12 how long does it take?

takes about a week id say. depends how big they are, the faster ones can sometimes turn out to be males, females take a little bit longer to show sex in most cases.
