Well they wil be in my 76x76x76 tent, under 2 400 watt HID
one 6inch 400CFM fan to cool the lights. one 4inch 170 CFM with carbon filter,

Gunna grow some AK-48, Afghani special, and Ice. im excited

Ive actually started it, I have 6, they are under my t-5 one is already be femmed its like 5" at 3 weeks, 3 tops.

So I think it was the seeds from how these are growing already, Like I couldnt think of anything to cause the plants to grow soo slow, I figured I did most of it right, right?
because ive seen plant HUGE at like 60 days veg from seed, mine were under 14"

I've heard of people trashing plants with grow rates like that. That's way to slow. That's why I clone... Last week put 6 more in the veg area... 3/6 have roots. Pretty soon those will be in my system growing with the rest.

I think im gunna clone my AK-48 or the Ice, the NL is on my list to avoid growing.

Do you think it could have been something I did? or just the genetics of the seeds I got?

I honestly can't say if it's something you have done. However... Most people that plant seeds see them sprout and grow much faster than that. I mean 10-20 days for germination then the plants usually take off. Another problem could be the size of the container it's in... If the roots run out of room... it can slow down growth significantly. Maybe they just need a pot upgrade? This is all speculation though...

If its deficient in so many aspects its probably genetics. It should smell a little funky by now! Post up the other seedlingss!

I did buy that 4 foot 4 bulb t8 system the other day for 50 dollars are Lowes. I couldnt pass up the deal. they seem to like it (:

I set it up ghetto because in the middle there is a Pole under the tray thing, so the plactic tray the plants are in wouldnt sit on it. so I moved it sideways lol

I will be ordering either another 400 watt cool tube lighting system or a 6"inline fan next week.
Do you think 2 400 watt lights will cover that 6.5x6.5" area good enough?
