Okay I guess I can start on my journal for my first grow.
My grow area will consist of a closet under the stairs for vegging. For flowering I got and 4x4ft tent off ebay for $110 shipped.
I started with DP Blueberry seeds (not feminized they cost too much
)
I germinated 5 seeds on wet paper towel in ziplock bag. Too keep it warm I had the bag sitting on top of my cable modem.
On 9/04/08 my babies were born! In less then 20hrs after i put them ziplock bag!
I took the seedlings and stuffed them in root riot cubes. Then stuff the riot cube in 4" rockwool cubes that were sitting in a propagation tray. I was lightly watering the cubes every 2 days.
For lighting i'm using a 2x 24" tek T5 HO kit that was used on my saltwater fish tank. I had to rip it off my old aquarium canopy then i just nailed the t5 lights on piece of plywood i found.. its ghetto but works. After a couple days I switched out the reef bulbs to 6500k bulbs.
I have my lights running 24/7. Average temperature in the closed closet was 79f degrees the max it got was 84f. Theres no A/C in my room and its been like 90+f degrees outdoors.
I wasn't really sure which method i was going to grow! I should of planned this ahead of time. At first I wanted to do ebb&flow system or some kinda drip system.
Then I decided to go with DWC or Bubbleponics style since I already have air pumps.. While i was wasting time deciding my plants were growing ALOT faster then i expected in the progation tray! Roots were sticking out of the bottom and I didn't know until I looked on day 10. Thats when I started feeding them nutrients. I added 10 drops each of Canna Vega part A&B into a half liter bottle of water.
I will continue later with my basic DWC bubble setup. Please leave me any comments for my improve next time.

:
. when i do my clones they wilt for a day or two aswell,but they soon recover and flourish.
. i personally have never tried flowering my clones as soon as they have roots,so i will be keping an eye on how the progress goes if u dont mind.
,the reason for me asking this is because them ladies are gonna get mighty big(tall) on you(at least twice the size)so if they are 16" now then they are gonna go to at least four foot at the very minimum
not taking into account that they may stretch a little bit more-what height have you left in your grow room?
