about 2 weeks ago i decided that it was stupid how all of the prices were going up for bud , i mean you used to be able to get stuff alot cheaper, so i got on this site and found the plans on how to make a grow closet and that is what i did. i planted about 6 plants all at different times to see how it would turn out. 4 of them have sprouted and i am waiting for the other two. i put in my closet a humidifier , a fan , 2 48' cfls 1 halogen 150 watt light and 3 soft white 100 watt lights. they all worked out really good and alot of people have the soft white spin lights. i've only done this a few times before and would like some advice on how to make them produce more when flowering time comes.

THE PICTURES BELOW ARE KINDA IN ORDER
THE FIRST PICTURE IS PLANT ONE
THE SECOND PICTURE ISTHE SIDE OF 1&2
THE THIRD IS PLANT 2
THE FOURTH IS PLANT 3
AND THE 5TH IS PLANT 4

you do NOT want a humidifier in there, it will usually be too humid, anyway ... get rid of the halogen light, it is the wrong lightwave, and produces way too much heat ... same with the soft whites incandescents, too much heat, and wrong light ... now, go back, and do your research ... if you READ these Forums, especially the back pages, and the FAQs, you will find everything you need to know, as you have started off in the wrong direction already ... :smokin:

Yeah i took the halogen light out because someone else told me that it was wrong. with the other lights i have seen them in many pictures grow boxes so i am pretty sure that they are right i just dont know what they are called.

the closet doesnt have enough humidity in it and that is why i have that in there right now the temperature is about 75 with the humidity at 65. i though that was right

humidity shouldn't be over 55% ... AGAIN, ditch the humidifier, OR, .. keep it, and write in soon with questions as to what you should do for your mildew and mold ... makes very little difference to me, what you do ... :smokin:

i think the lights you are using are called cfl's do they look like spirally things.. then yes they are cfl and will work very well... and your temps and humidity are spot on for veg stage...

no problem.. i mean those plants are still young.. so they need a humidity of between 75 and 80.. and during flowering you can lower it to about 50-55... and no more then 50 during drying...

Yea keep an eye on the humidity, no more than 80% during veg. Use the humidifer if it maintains that level. That will cause problems during flower though as mentioned.

yeha it has been from the 50's to the 80's and it only gets that low if the humidiffier is on high right now i turned it off since people are telling me that it is supposed to be at 75 or 80

i'd be interested to see your whole grow closet if you can take a picture. That way we can kinda get a perspective of what you have to work with. Some people are being a little harsh given the circumstances of not seeing the whole closet.

Two growing in one pot? I had that happen this past week. What happened was, I tried to germinate one of those Nirvana freebie seeds in a rockwool plug, but after a week I gave up on it. Then I threw some Blue Mystics in plugs and they all sprouted, but I had reused the plug with the freebie seed in it, without removing the seed, and it (finally) sprouted too. So I pinched off that freebie seed and killed it.

Your two aren't that close together (my two were RIGHT by each other), so you can maybe save them both. Use a spoon or something and try to dig up a ball of soil around the sprout that you are most willing to risk killing, then transplant it to a different pot. They look small, so it might work okay. If it dies though, don't be too surprised or disappointed. The one you don't dig up should be fine if you do it soon. If you wait much longer, their roots will get entangled and you'll either have to let them both grow or just snip off one of them and kill it.
