First Grow - LOG - 1000HPS, 11 Seeds

[Splifted]

Thanks for th tip on the nutes, Ill try and get some cash together for the grow big.

Question though, They have been sitting under 2 24" flouresant lights for the past 2 days, one has sprouted, and the others you can kinda see coming along.

Ive been putting the HPS on them 3 1/2 feet above for a few hours during the day, just trying to get them a good light source. Just wondering, is this good or bad for them? I would of loved to get a MH and switchable ballast, but didnt, so Im stuck with the floure's and the hps. When should I start putting the hps on 24 or 18/6?

I'd wait about 2 weeks then you should be straight to put the HPS on 24/0. Until then just keep your fluoros like 1" above the top of your plants to keep them nice and short. They will stretch if the light is farther than that. Then when you start with the HPS, start it a little high up and work it down every day. Just listen to what your plants are telling you, they'll let you know if its too much heat.
