mikejones21 Reviewed by mikejones21 on 05-15-2009. First Grow Experiment: Building a $120 grow box Here I will be updating info and pictures from my first indoor grow. Last year I planted some seeds outdoor but failed probably because of the lack of sun. As of now I am setting up an indoor stealth operation in my room made of Rubber Maid boxes. Stealth and cost are my priorities but I will try to grow the best plant given the conditions. My friend who is doing this project with me provided a bag seed which I germinated. It germinated in about 24 hours. I went to Lowes where I asked Rating: 5

we tried to vape the pinchings. Didn't really do anything. I think it is too early in the plants growth. I will take more pinchings when shes developed more.

We repotted again because last repot we didn't break up the soil enough. It was and has been pretty rootbound. We broke it up a lot this time but some of the roots ripped a little. Hopefully she will make a full recovery. I will post pictures later but im too tired now.

Look's like she's thirsty,you'll need a bigger potter,and,or,water more often.

No need to fuss with the root ball at all when transplanting. I transplant when the pot is failry dry. I tap around the sides and bottom of the pot to loosen it up, holding the top of the soil in my hand I invert the pot and place it directly into the new pot. I then add the soil and water it in. Place the pot out of the direct hot sun (light) for a day.

No smoking them little bottom leaves. My cat likes to chew on them though. (She ate my Z10 seedling, so I have to be careful of that).

Hey everyone,

she does seem to be growing, which is good. and bigleague said above, we recently transplanted to a new bigger pot. we also LST'd some of the lower branches. still there is a problem with drooping though, i've been using the wet/dry cycle method suggested earlier in the thread, so i give her a good amount of water (until a bit drips out the bottom of the pot) and only water again when the soil is almost completely dry. I'm curious what you think about this, and peoples thoughts with regard to her droopiness. any advice is much appreciated. oh, and she's under 6 cfls constantly with the temp between 74 and 79 degrees.

due to indoor complications I believe we are moving outdoors...

Yeah, I'm interested as well.

I heard that its better to keep your plant under light for 18 hour's and 6 hour's off in complete darkness. during the veg state because it alows it to grow more and the stems get stockier and thicker wich in the long run give's bigger budds :jointsmile:
I hope ceres is getting bigger :thumbsup:

unfortunately, we had to move outdoors. she has a new home now in an open part of a forest near my house. the good news is right before she moved, she started looking a lot better than some of the previous pictures. new growth and four strong lower branches with their own offshoots. I will try to go snag a picture as soon as i can, if not over the weekend, then monday. lets just hope she doesnt get eaten, stolen, or destroyed! thanks for keeping up folks.:thumbsup:
