Started my first grow totally low budget and experimental. Just want to get the very basics down.
I'm using a box with reflective material inside with the light sitting on top it has a 8 inch fan cut into the side of the box for intake and it basically extracts air too because all the air comes out a hole in the top. Its pretty damn ghetto maybe ill post a pic of it later haha.
Using a 250w Hps for Vegging and Flowering
Plants are on day 7 of vegging. Their Pretty Small I Think
Still need to get nutes.
I'm using miracle grow organic soil but I'm looking around for a better soil at local and big chains like Home Depot, Lowes. I checked they didnt carry FFOF or Happy Frog
I should be getting a little bit of funds going to buy a better soil and buy some perlite and vermiculite maybe.
Here's Some Pictures

Sorry if the order is confusing I did top and side shots of each plant
Picture Number 3
The Plant looks deformed haha
but its still growing fine.
I have a problem the second to last photo shows a plants leaf that has brown/yellow spots on it. I was wondering if it has to do with PH or was it because I misted the plant and it got burned?
I've been using the hand method to judge the distance that is good. My 250w hps has a glass cover so it doesnt give off that much heat compared to if the glass cover was off.
Also plant in picture 6 suddenly stopped growing it was bigger than the plant in picture 2 when they first started growing. I'm thinking its because I compacted the soil too tight and it doesnt have room to move its roots or just very slowly so I am going to transplant it when I get the new soil mix.
Any help would be greatly appreciated, and I like seeing input from all of you on RIU.
