Hey everyone! Remember me? Glad to see the site is back, and I myself am glad to be back. For all of you that helped thus far, if you are still around, i thank you for the info. Moving on to better days with the green thumb for sure... Heres the journal, new and improved.

Soil: Grower's Proffesional + Perlite
Nutes: Fox Farms Big Bloom(entire cycle, will discuss dosage), Fox Farm Tiger Bloom(flowering)
Lighting: CFL's - 4x21w 2500k and 4x26w 6700k, 4 inchs from tops. 188w at about 12,800 lum.
GrowBox: found a 24x20wide cardboard box that i painted all white. Height is from 2.5-5ft, so they have room to grow. The box can also be opened for fresh air, and closed and ventilated.
Temps at lights off are around 65-70, lights on 80-85, which im ok with.

This is a shot of them at 14 days. Purple stem, very little growth.


As the lights come on tonight, I will be on day 22 for them, and they are a little behind. Now they are looking very healthy though. I had to take a risk and 15 days in repot the whole rootball into my GroPro soil, due to high pH levels, and nute lockout. Luckily, I was able to do it successfully on all 3 plants, and after 2 days of shock, they took a liking to it. After 20 days, I started them on there first dose of FF Big Bloom. Starting out on 1/4 strength, the next morning, I could definitely tell they liked the stuff. So this is up to date as it gets for the moment, in about 3 hours is lights on, and i will get some more over all pictures. Stay Tuned!
This is a shot that i got last night, 1 week later from the picture above.
