Whats Good!?:peace:

I have a bagseed planted. I'm 98% sure it's trainwreck. I'm new to the whole growin thingg. so any help, ideas, comments will help me in EVERY way!

I didnt germinate. I had the plant outdoors for the first 6 days. Then decided to bring her inside because of the lack of sunshine..:hump:

I made a small cardboard box for now..With two CFL's 13w, & 11w.

Its now on day 8, and in the 24/0 lighting..
I want to keep the plant as SHORT as POSSIBLE.(like a bush rather a tree) but still a good personal yeild..:joint:

Posting to subscribe, also to keep it short just put the plant about 2 or 3 inches away from you lights....use like dvd cases to raise and lower it so you dont need to mess around with those lights

with those lights and considering how younge she is the 24/7 lights are ok...but to much light can cause stress and stress increses the chances of her going hermafidite... but this younge you have a wile (if you have $5 buy the timer anyway)... also, she looks really little for 8 days, hopefully she will grow good

dude the MG nute pellets will fuck up your young plant. i see a few on top. what ever you can pull those out, ive seen them kill a dozen seedlings

24/0 is fine lighting for seedlings, it promotes healthy growth in early stages.

look into lst and topping and sog (scrog) to keep her heavy and thick and full of bud

Haha, i bet you check it every 30 mins? thats how i was when i got my first seedling. but if you just want a commercial potting soil, use Scotts moisture control pot mix. It has no wood chips and the soil does its job great. only thing is you will need to give her nutes eventually (month in).

No you dont need to use scotts, I was just saying if you dont want to make any mixture or go organic you should buy Scotts moisture control pot mix. Its fine to use, especially For a low budget grow.

82F is not that bad, the foil is probably making it hotter. If you want a cooler temp put a fan on it, iff you dont have a fan just remove the foil,
