I'm gunna have to check out your setup. Are you going all the way to harvest with the T5s and CFLs?

The roots looked good and healthy. The plant was slightly rootbound, but not as much as I've seen from others who've posted pics. I think that's the point of starting them in a smaller container.... to get a stronger root system. The soil held together pretty well when I took them out of the cups. I meant to get pictures, and had my camera right beside me, but completely forgot. :madnoel:

I think I transplanted at the perfect time because I didn't see any big signs of stress that caused damage to the plant. Just the twisting and culing leaves. I will probably switch on the same day in future grows from seed.

The plants look like they're adjusting to their new home quite well. All three look happy, healthy, and growing.

Dude, this is like so weird. I'm doing the same seeds, using the same cups, same tables, almost same fluro's (I made a bank of T-12's), same closet thing, even the same cheezy (no offense) sliding mirror closet doors!!! :thumbsup:

I think tomorrow I'm going to wake up all Twilight Zone were nobody will know me but they will be calling me the the name Raiz'. :wtf:

Thanks for the grow, nice set up, and great pix! How did you post them so HUGE? :what:

[Ocotillo]

NO WAY!!!!! I just noticed you are doing peppers too??????

OK, man.... Now you're just F-ing with my head. I got it, jokes over. It's like the evil Spock (with goatee) in the transverse universe. Very good, well done sir. :wtf:

Enjoy! :dance::dance:

I usually post the pics up at imageshack.us in 1024x768 so they fit my screen just right. They give you a direct link after you upload the file.

It's a small world, and there are only so many combinations of setups. I'm sure there is probably a 3rd person who has a grow just like ours... these things always come in 3's. I noticed you're doing 18/6, while I'm at 24/0. Do you notice any difference between your plants and mine at the same age? Mine are 13-14 days since they sprouted above soil.

I have no idea how to grow the peppers. My gf just bought a plant and we stuck it in there. Feel free to share any tips you have.

there looking good man and yeah im gonna use the t5 for my whole process but with the cfl's added in who knows the true potential of the t5. your setup is just like mine. I've ran 24/0 threw my whole veg from seed for about 30+ days. the light is pretty much the same as i had, practically touching the foliage. check out mine im sure it will be a close idea of how the vegging will go.
Lookin good bro:rastasmoke:

That time of the day again. Keep growin girls.
On the next watering (probably tomorrow) they're going to get their first taste of nutes. I bet they can't wait!

you just put them in fresh soil, i would hold off on the nutes for another week or two before you give them any. then soil has plenty to keep them happy. you dont want them looking like my poor casey jones it hurts. and man they look good:thumbsup:

I come home tonight to check on my girls and guess what I found!? Discoloration! This is the first sign of any realy problems with the plants, so lets see if we can figure it out. The leaves aren't a nice dark green like what I'm used to. There is a lighter green, and even a few very tiny brown spots randomly. It's not only on the top leaves, but mostly. This happened to all the plants on the same day.

As most of you know, I'm growing in FFOF soil, I pH the water to between 6.5 and 7 between watering, I've used NO nutes yet, and I'm using a T5 4 foot, 6 light setup. Today I did leave the heat on at home, and the room was 78 degrees at around 7:30pm when I got home.

Do you think I cooked the girls a bit during the day?

Are they looking for nutes that aren't there? I just transplanted a couple days ago into bigger pots.

Are they thirsty? I'm not sure this looks like thirsty plants to me, although it is time for a water.

I didn't know what to do.
I waited for anyone out there with knowledge to respond.
I waited and waited. Noone responded.
I didn't know what to do!
I panicked!
I thought maybe it was a nute deficiency.
I added 1 tablespoon of Big Bloom to the 1 gallon container.
I added 1 teaspoon of Grow Big to the 1 gallon container.
I watered/fed them.
I think they'll most likely be dead in the morning.

They shouldn't die from half strength nutes...Don't know how to fix your prob but it doesn't look that bad
