all right mate well im glad to see that it's popped it's lil head lol any way that guide i gave u is just a guide every one does things different i just thought it would help you off on the right foot. any way having your lights on 24/7 wont hurt your baby neither will having them 18/6 like most ppl. but i would suggest like nick said try and get a hps in there but if you do decide to go down that route you will need fan's and an extractor fan as well for the heat coz them hps do put out alot and you need the temp's between 70-80 i find 82 works best its just keeping it regular. most of learning is from experiance but u got to read and read as well. so you can spot problems befor they arise and fix them. but so far every thing is looking good man. as for telling sex there are a few sign's whilr your in veg but u aint no way near that point yet usually ppl can tell in the first 2 weeks of flowering as well but we will get to that point as and when you need it. i dont know why latewood is dising that link that k.p done coz i think personally its great for noobs to read it helps them start off on the right track. (sorry latewood if you were'nt dissing it it just came across that way) any way crazy keep us informed like i said i'll follow this thread now and make sure ur ok. i got a party to go to now so i'll check in on ya later happy new year to every one peace out
