I got Janice in My closet and I'm not affraid to smoke her...so back off copper!

This is my 1st grow, a friend of mine gave me my new 1st pot plant today, I named her Janice! ;) I hope she turns out to be a girl, I first had her in my bathroom, but that not under direct light so I moved Janice to my closet, and if the cops come a knocokin all i have to say is "I have Janice in my closet, and if you break open that door, you give me no choice but to smoke her!" LOL

Oh shit forgot pics, perfect timming going to go wake up janice now :D, brb with pics :) here's a pic of Janice in my bathroom, she's such a dirty girl ;) So now I locked her in my closet! lol

ok her's some new pics of Janice in her Closet space! How does this look? Is she gettin enough light, I didn't have a proper lamp so I had to improvise and use my bedside table lamp. Is that sufficent light for my Janice :)

You need a LOT more light! Get like 4 CFLs over her. She will thank you.

ok going to rig up a set up tomorrow after work, thinbking of buyin 3 cheap bedside lamps bustin open the bases, and makin a hanging lamp sysytem over her :)

Gnomer,
you need:
1) at least 4 more lights for veg,
2) a small fan in there to get the air moving, otherwise it wont be strong enough to support itself
3) medium and get that mixed together also, your plant will need to be transplanted very soon.
4) reflective material that is not tin foil for your walls

That should get ya going for a couple days..... keep us posted.

ok thanks whatsthatsmell. Oka here's my list of stuff to get tomorrow at the local share store, second hand stuff for cheap!
-4 more lamps (bust opne the bases, and rig somethin up)
- 3 more cfls
- a fan
- Some refectex foil from work
-potting soil, and a new pot to transplant her too..what mix should I get?

your medium mix wants to me light, airy, fluffy with little to no nutes in it. Stay away from the MG stuff, it has time release nutes and will be difficult to control. Get yourself some manure/humus mix or if you can find it, i found this stuff that is like black gold to plants, its called Black Earth and all i have to do is add perilite to it and its done. If you have a hydro store nearby you can get a bag of Fox Farms Soiless mix and that will do y ou right also. Just make sure that you dont get medium that has peat in it, you will have to adjust your pH alot if you do and can be a pain in the butt.

Thanks bud for all the advice, keep it coming :)

Edit: yep got a hydro store just down the hill from me, and my friend works there too, so he's going to give me lots of advice :)

Ok i didn't have time to buy some more lamps on Monday. Hoping I will get the chance today at some point to do, so Might even do it on my lunch break and come home and set it up. I wanna make sure janice gets all the light she needs as soon as possibble! I need to buy a fan too. But I got the bulbs, a power bar, and some reflectex That i have set up in my closet already! I hope Janice in enjoying her new place ;) here is a pic of her new set up so far :) need to get a bit more reflectex from work so i can cover the back of the door :)

Can anyone tell me how long till i can harvest. I knoiw it will be awhile, but I'm on a time frame. You see my landlords lleave at the end of the month, for 5 whole month, me and Janice will be crankin the tunes! So I have like a 5 month window to harvest janice, is that dueable, or will I have to move her outside for the last part? i hope not cause if she's female, I wanna keep her indoors...so is 5 months long enough time? I'm sure it is but I'm new to this so i could be terribly wrong!

Oh crap just realized somethin at what temp should it be in the closet for my pot plant? I don't want her too freeze its cold in here...

what are those things on her leaves? are they bugs?

damn can't see them in those pics...

A close up of her legs ;)

Ok gnomer here is todays list for ya.....LOL

1) new pot for plant, 3 - 5 gallon will do nicely
2) medium - check out stinkyattics sig and get a recipe for a nice medium
3) light sockets
4) 2x4 for said sockets
5) put that light bar together and get it hanging
6) thermometer
7) Nutrients - your getting close, have them on hand
8) pH pen - you need to start checking your water pH before and after it goes into soil

That should keep ya busy for awhile.....

Some people have not posted in the grow forum, there are other spots that people could have been and gotten rep for that has nothing to do with growing......

Temps roughly 75-80 during veg period. Then around 70 for flower.
I can't tell but it looks like you may have a pest....like spider mites perhaps but it's too hard to see.

Ok Gnome,you need to forget about busting open table lamps,and go buy some cheap four foot flourescent fixtures,and bulbs.You can get the fixtures for 8 bucks a piece,and the bulbs are only like a dollar a piece.You would probably only need 2 fixtures,and 4 bulbs.I've grown plants under them,and you can get a decent amount of flowers,if you keep the plant close enough.Your just not going to get a harvest using table lamps.You'd be lucky if you got one smokable joint doing it that way,and why waste a few months growing a plant for one joint?You need to also repot that poor thing.Just go get a bag of merical grow potting mix,it works very well,and a bigger pot.You will notice,within a few days your plant will start to flourish.Hope this helps ya a little.PEACE

I'm giving Janice back, I pulled the plug on the whole growin thing, I'm a smoker not a grower(when I grow again, I will research first). especially when My landlords live right above me. yeah they are going away soon, but thats at the end of the month, and My landlord mentioned he was dropin by tonight, to give me a letter explainin who is lookin after the place when they are gone. If he saw the cord leading into my closet tonight, I think he'd be suspicous lol

I know nothinh about growin, and doing in a place where I'm rentin makes me too nervous. when i finally buy my own place (proably be a trailer) I'll grow then, not now when I can't even make a proper set up cause I'm affraid my landlord will hear the drilling, and stuff. So sorry I made this pointless thread. I will continue to research growin via this site, but I need the knowledge first if I wanna grow properly not just keep askin for advice constantly. and I need my own place.

Very good, let the Janice GO! <G>

:thumbsup:I'll light one up for ya, Bub.

Shov

looks happy, but your gonna need LOTS more light

Well next time get 2 Y adapters and 4 CFL's and you'll be set (:

Yeah and this plant was sprung on me so I had no real time to research growing. The next time I do it I'll be more prepared! :) when I am in better growing enviroment :D thanks for all the advice from the people that tried to help! As for the jerks that laughed at me, well Like I said I got this plant sprung on me! so :p lol
