Anticipating Adam

My name is Adam, and this is my first grow, so its been experimental with me thus far. I started from scratch: tapwater, bagseed, miracle grow, aluminum foil, cfl. i made alot of mistakes so far so it took a minute to get a successful crop started. i didn't want to post pics or topics about that simple and mundane stage of the operation.

i accessorized and upgraded. i use distilled tap water and an aerator. 2 250w cfl. water control miracle grow. so now i have 7 successful plants. i have spent very little on the op until today. i invested in 400w hps/mh+600w hps/mh and mylar. i have an excellent 6'X20 in closet that is fixing to become one helluva grow space. the used lamps came to a total of 180. mylar 20.

i will transfer the plants into 5 gallon buckets in the growspace when i get the lamps. i want to veg a lil while extra to get some big ol bushes. i have lots of space to fill up with tops and kolas and buds. i could use a little advice on topping and LST, and nitrogen. when is a good time to begin that stuff?

how can i post pics in this thread?
