Ok its day 3 and I am very excited to see what I believe is the tip of the plant emerging from soil!:thumbsup:

It's probably impossible to see from this crappy picture but its the little green thing in the center.



Up close it looks as though it is pointing to the side. I moved the lights a bit so they would fit better directly over the top of the plant.

More good news..
I purchased a thermometer today, which unfortunately does not read humidity(I didn't have the money on me for one that did) but it does have a sensor to place in side my box.
While at Home Depot and Fred Meyers I also purchase 4 CFLs and an 18" (The exact size of my box) light fixture.



I placed the thermometer inside the box and the main reader outside the box about 6 ft. away.
It is reading about a steady 72 degrees F for the inside which correct me if i'm mistaken, is just about right. It is reading about 68 inside my room which probably is not important.


I plan on setting up the CFL fixture soon... how soon do I need it? Also if anyone has links or info about wiring it easily that would be nice. Like most others it is not "plug in" and it has a black wire, a white wire and a bare copper, ground wire for connection.

Also my budget has gotten a bit out of range. I have now spent about $140 total and am setting a limit for myself on $160 maybe less if I can help it.
The only other things I will buy are Fox Farms Grow Big, some more seeds or cheap clones and maybe a PH/Humidity reader.

questions, advice, comments?
