finally growning!

hey whats up everyone ok well those seeds i thought got stolen didnt some did but the female ones didnt so i let them germnate for 3 days until the taproot was out and i planted them yesterday i had one growing from earlier its about 4 days old the others are since yesterday and 2 have alrdy come up from the ground the look kinda brown tho....shit but anyways i have about 11 or so total i have a 120 watt light for plants and i left it on for 24 hours and it fucking dried out those mother fuckers so tonight im gonna start a 16/8 cycle so it doesnt dry out real fast so i watered them and everything yay i will post pics soon once i fucking find my gay digital camera my grandma lost it cuz she cleaned up, see i got this theory if u dont clean u will never lose anything she cleans up we lose a camera see wtf she has cleaning issues lol anyways i will post pics soon o and the strain is super skunk :D

lol of course 10 mins later i find it here u go ya its blurry im sry ya i know no plants give it a week :D

how close is the lamp, looks to me like theyre streching

hmm not sure exactly maybe a foot? or a lil less but ya and its kinda diff now cuz i stayed up all night (damn pills) and i put foil everywhere so on the pots like around the edges and then on the wall i think maybe i should move the lamp closer but im afraid im gonna burn the lil guys

make sure the foil is dull side out, and watch for hot spots on the pots. you can measure how far away the light should be by using the back of your hand.when you hand is just far enought to be comfortable with the heat thats how far away it should be. what kind ofbulb are you using

shit time for school

haha not until 7 am for me... hmm well i feel it and it feels good like a normal tempature not burning me but warm it probably could be a lil closer but its fine for now and its a 120 watt bulb fuck if i know what kind it is, maybe u can tell look at it? lol

the light seems to evaporate all the water REALLY REALLY FAST like how often should i have to water it? cuz im watering it about every 5 hours or so because the soil is completely dry
and its only a 120 watt!

If your walls are painted white it is actually better to leave them alone then put foil on them. White painted walls will reflect more light than foil and also cause less heat build up.

try usin a cotton bud stuck in the soil to hold the little 1 up and save the stem falling over,i had to do this for a few days with my SS and since then they can fend for themselves,you shouldnt have much problems with them aslong as u got a decent light spectrum on them with good air circulation,best o` luck m8

updated :D ok well the one i showed u alrdy died but heres what i got so far and i made the set up better and i added a lil fan for circulation so they are still on the 18/6 hour cycle cuz it works good :D

Hey, I think I had that same light ur using and it sucked ass for my plants. Go pick up a 42w (150w compared to normal) compact flourecent and you will need more than one for 6 plants, but right now one will be fine I guess. Try getting at least 3.

hmm how much those go for?

I got mine at home depot for 10$ each, plus the lamps

what kind of light is it? if its incandesent or soft white then you better change them quick (like the ones you put on your ciellings). Those kind of lights sucks terribly for the following reasons... Their energy turns into heat rather than usable light, they have a bad spectrum, and they dont produce much lumens (900 at most). Maybe thats the reason your plants dry up quick. Spend a few more bucks to buy compact floroesents, they have a better spectrum, output (1750 lumens 27watts), low heat, and can be placed very close to the plants w/o buring. If your using incandesent or soft white then your plants wont grow as good as you want it. This should cost you under 20 bucks. If youre really serious then get some HID lamps (over $100 though, and the one with alot of wattage produce up to or over 50000 lumens).
