CFL Grow Log #1
DAY 1
Let me first start of by saying that this thread is for medicinal knowledg and not for the people growing to make a living as a drug-dealer.
This is a grow that has been in progress for 74 total days today. I was going to wait until the grow was over to log it but I just can't wait. This is not my first time around but it is my first for this particular setup. From here on out, every new thread by me will represent a new day of the log, besides the responses to other people that may want to follow along for the ride. Here goes!!!

CFL Grow Log #1
Forgot to mention I dropped four unknown seeds in to water on day one to germinate. All four seeds cracked and showed tails on day 2. I planted the four seeds in 16oz cups and coverd them with plastic for a greenhouse-affect. Clones are not showing any different signs.

CFL Grow Log #1
All 4 seeds sprouted on night 3. I removed the plastic from the tops.

CFL Grow Log #1
Clones seem to have taken well to the transplant and are showing new growth. The 4 seedlings are doing great.

Sorry about the gap there but nothing special went on and growth was slowed due to PH problems and too many nutes.
You will see in the last picture that I fimmed one of the seedlings.

CFL Grow Log #1
Transplanted clones and seedlings to 3 gallon buckets and I puntured many holes in the bottoms for air.

CFL Grow Log #1
Tossed a seedling today due to stunted growth. I also wanted to mention that I put 2 plants in one bucket to document the difference in growth. I wanted to show how another plant will conquere another.
1st pic is the 2 together
2nd pic is the Fimmer
3rd is side shot of clones doing well

CFL Grow Log #1
Up until today I was running the light cycle at 22/2. It is now at 18/6.

CFL Grow Log #1
Fimmed again, the same plant as last time. Growth between the 2 in the same pot seems to be about the same at this point. Been having problems with nute-burn and found that the plants do not like added nutes in veg. stage with this soil. The soil PH is also very high and I am flushing with PH adjusted water only. Plan to water with PH adjusted water through the rest of the veg.
I had to tie up plant B Skunk/Haze because it was growing out of control.
