ello babystarbud sounds like you have things pretty much under control.. im sorta glad temps have droped my plants are very cool.. sept night times very cold n our heaters are playing up hmmmmmmm... but i have my babys on 20/4 so only 4 hours in cold.. i think the love i give them will pull them through .. just the fisrt few months seem to go very slow ... fuck it time for another spliff.. best of luck to your babys:thumbsup:

hi and thanks, but i do find the temps creeping up into the 30's after a few hours...
infact ive just had a thought...im gonna look for a small table with a glass inlay, kinda like those see-through coffe tables, but asmall one that you get in those nest sets, if i find one cheap i think it would help a bit as its not the ambient temps that are the problem, its the direct glare from the bulb. hopefully the glass might bounce enough heat back up to sort the problem

maybe somthing like this i found in argos, would help?

day 8 and things seem to have settled down a bit.
temps are good and plants slowly growing.
a slight hickup thismorning where one seedling wasnt shedding the remains of its seed shell, i gently pulled it off because thatplant was starting to fall behind the rest.
the baby leaves popped upen straihgt away, and aside from a plale tip from light depravation, is doing ok now.

currently taking about 25 ml of water twice per day per plant.
ive been rotating the pots a bit to try and keep the stalks straight...is about all there is to do for now...

ello babystarbud.. your babys are looking good.. unlike mine lol.. i think you will find that your growrom getting alot cooler in the up and comin weeks due to the cold weather.. last 3 days has been freezing.. so your babys will be alot happier.. i wouldnt go with the glass thing if i was you.. ive read that it bounces heat back so wouldnt be too good.. anyways happy growing:thumbsup:

look a lil stretched there

[babystarbud]

yeh the glass table thing was a bit silly, and it dosent look like ill need it now, temps have evened out and settled down to solid mid 20;s

yeh mine always look a bit streched before they get a good set of leaves,
once some have grown they'll fatten up cos they'l be able to catch a bit more light from the hps.

they are starting to get the second set of leaves now. there is a nice purple tone to the bottoms of the leaves, shame about my crappy camera...should be getting a 3megapixel cam from a friend soon so hopfully better pix!

oh, and theyve just been watered in these pix incase anyone wondering why they are a bit soggy-looking

hi there peeps

nothing much to report, still growing (bloody fucking slowly)
so this post is more for documentary puropses than to post anything interesting/relevant
is it me or are these growing slooooooooooow..
my last lot were grown under natural light for the first few weeks and seemed a bit (no, alot)faster (that was in summer, on a windowsill)
this lot has been uder artificial from the start, they have never even seen daylight.

the bong in the pics is some "skunk special" grown by a friend, and is a good smoke.

the next step for skywalkers young padawan's will be re-potting, which is a little while away yet, thank god because i hate getting soil all over my carpet.

the seedlings are currently listening to AC/DC's "kissin dynamite".
