This is going to be the first post of my grow journal. I'll let everyone know what I'm using at every step and any problems I may experince. I'm completly open to any advice and am grateful for EVERYONES opinion. I'll try to post every other day from here on out but I'm about 3 and a half weeks in already. So I'll give you a break down of where I'm as of now. I have two Bubblegum clones(Fem obviously) one is 15" and one is 22". I also have a lil White Rhino Clone(I'm gonna stop wasting time so as of now just know all my clones are obviously Fems) that is at about 2". I also have 4 seeds of unknown descent and sex that are I'm also growing. They are all around 6-8". I have my setup in two sections at this point in a 2x2x5 grow tent and a nice lil armoir I'll be using as weel once the time comes. I have a 600W HPS light With hood and as well as an exhaust system since a 600w in my lil tent gives me some heat problems sometimes(no higher than 86 degrees F). I have a nice heavy clip on fan for circulation so I'm getting a pretty good atmoshphere in there I THINK? REMEMBER I'M A NOOB I've done lots of research and I'm the third gen of grower in my family but this is MY FIRST grow. So back to the setup. I use COCONOT brand cocofibers with a 1/5 of perlite to coco mix to aid drainage. They are all in 7.5 liter/2 gal containers except one lil pot that I'm trying an expanded clay drip system in. Everything has been great so far, the bubblebum clones(that I obtained legally with my cultivators card in the legal state of AZ) that I got from my local Co-op have done graet and I'm actually wondering when I should begin to put them into flower. And though my Rhino is struggling s lil my unknowns are doing great considering they came out a bag of reg. But I'll post more pics and more info in a bit.

Medi-one its a one solution feed through the whole grow. Til a flush before harvest. But I've heard the bubblegum doesn't need much miss so I'm actually giving then the first week veg solution. Which is 10ml to about 7.5 liters or 5 gallons. So I'm starting them light and I'll keep am eye out for nute burn on my leafs edges til I get a tds meter.
 
Hmm, that one plant looks a tad gangly. If they're under a 600W, light is probably not the issue. Having a fan blowing directly on the plants will help to creat a stronger stock and more sturdy plant. Do you check the pH of your water...how bout the run off?
