as far as the setup now, are those in a box or something? if not, i would suggest you use a cardboard box or something to build a little seedling box. that way you can maximize the ligth that you do have available. also do you have a fan blowing on them? try to get them fresh air.

it's looking good though.

edit: what are your goals with this project?


Yeah well i just put them in a plastic bin so that i would have some more room for some more seedling that just sprouted (Grow log soon to come!)I do have a constant draft of a oscillating fan that runs into the closet(outta picture) and as well as I plan on trying some type of CO2 with yeast.(doing more research) So you think a HPS will do me fine for both Veg and Flower phases? If so, I will just go out and get that instead of this rig I got going!

Also, my goals for this project was to originally see the effects of the CFL's and grow tubes on growth, but as these little buddies start to grow I want to essentially maximize growth in what space I have....I figured I could grow at most 8 plants depending on the size of the plants growth...I only want to grow them at most 2 months in veg (or less depending on growth rate) Plus it would be a shame not to try and optimize growth on this silve haze strain....I might try that CFL and grow tube experiment on some bag seed:baggy: later in the future.....:yippee:
