Booyagrandma Reviewed by Booyagrandma on 09-12-2008. My first newbie grow So I got some bag seeds from a friend, put them into a cup of water, and started growing them outdoors in miracle grow soil. I quickly realized two things (1) it was too late to start (early Aug) to harvest anything more than what I generally spill when rollin' a dubie and (2) the MG I was using wasn't the smartest choice of soil ... so, let the decisions begin. First, I decided I was going to move indoors. I bought a 5x5x6 grow tent (darkroom 150) and lit it up with a 600 watt switchable MH Rating: 5

It's a Goldstar 5000 BTU window unit. I picked it up at home depot on sale for $79. I just took a look at their website and they have one for $99.

So I topped all 3 bag ladies (the big 3 in the back) ... here are pics for the week ...

1. picture of all 6 (3 back are bag seeds and 3 front are fem WW's)
2. top right corner (biggest) and fastest grower
3. top middle
4. top left (short and stubby ... any guesses as to what kind?)
5. front right WW

2 more ...

1. center WW
2. left WW

If you compare the pic of all 6 from the 14th and 21st you'll see a huge difference in the WW's. Also, keep in mind I chopped the back right in 1/2 when trimming. I wish I knew what kind it was ... it'd be a great mom :thumbsup:

Off to a great start.:thumbsup: Looks like you've done your homework.

Fairly new at this myself, so still trying everything to see what works for my style.
I offer you the benefit of my screw-ups
I still have 2 hydrotron girls left.
Got tired of the PH creep.
Damn hydrotron raises PH by almost a full point per gallon per day.
And that's after a 2 day presoak at 5.0.
Had to buy a PH MONITOR from aquarium supply.
(Probe hangs in the tub 24/7 and I get PH at a glance.)
My tap water's about 7.2 and quite hard, so I'm using rainwater and have switched the new potted girls to coco/DWC.
Will be using coco for the clones nursery as well.
You might want to have a look a Puffzter's thread to see why.

The water ladies are DWC to the max and are getting too big for their buckets.
Once you have this down, you might want to consider a second tent for vegging. It can save lots of downtime for the bud tent.

Good luck to ya braddah

Here is this weeks update.

1. Picture of all 6; the back row was rearranged. The top left used to be top right, middle used to be top left, and top right used to be middle (in case any of you are actually following along).

2. Bottom left White Widow w/ yellow tips. I'm not sure what the exact problem is but this is the only one with this issue. I flushed w/ ph'ed water and refreshed the reservoir with new water/nutes so we'll see what happens this week ... hopefully she clears up.

3 & 4. Pic of top left (fastest growing) and my attempt of LST

Till next week :thumbsup:
