When I came back from work today, I could smell my girls very faintly as soon as I walked into the door. I ended up throwing the carbon filter on today and it made a big difference almost immediately. I'll throw some pics of it up tomorrow. Right now, I'm stoned as hell and about to pass out...

I just started my first grow about a month ago. My set-up is a little bit like what you have in mind (check out my journal... link in my journal). Just two suggestions... If you have the money, def go with some form of HID light. You girls will love you for that... I have a 250W Agrobulb...

unreal... i'm drooling looking at your pics and your video.

Been a couple days since an official update. I can't believe how large my girls are getting. Not only that, but every once and a while, I'm start to get wiffs of the sweet smell of the plants. I'm going to have to hook up my carbon filter pretty soon. The girls are starting to drink a lot...

you should see the powerpoint slideshow i put together. it just helps me appreciate the grow even more, watching how it progresses right in front of my eyes. check out my next post, took a picture from a bit further away to show more of the set-up.

one of the best grow journals i've seen so far... great visualizations. using your grow as a point-in-time comparison for my own grow. keep up the good work and feel free to check out my journal. +rep

looking really good, awesome pics

My grow is now going into it's second month. It's been a month and a day since I first started germinating my seeds. So to celebrate, here's a series of pics showing the growth of my girls every 4 days. Pic 1 - Day 1, 4/14/09 Pic 2 - Day 4, 4/17/09 Pic 3 - Day 8, 4/21/09 Pic 4 - Day 12...

For the past week, I've been leaving the door to the grow box somewhat open trying to bring the temp down to the optimal 75-80 degrees (at 85 w/ the doors closed). The way I had the doors open, one plant (JG) was getting an additional wall of light reflection. JG has been the one taking the...

That's what I suspected... I think I lowered the pH a little too much during the water change. I don't have a digital meter (using the GH pH testing kit). Thanks for the reassurance.

The girls are growing at a ridiculous rate right now. The main growth is sprouting 1 - 3 sets of new leaves each day while it also grows new nodes. The growth slowed slightly yesterday, I think b/c of the water change. But today, back to blowing up. MJ showed a couple of spots and...

oh man those buds look great. and that one pic with the plant covered in crystals is gnarly!

Thanks for the heads up... I did not know that. I will def move up the start of 12/12 lighting.

The day-to-day changes now are obvious. All three have taken to LST really well, especially miss Jean Grey (see second pic). If you look closely, you can see some of the new growth coming in from the LST. Lois Lane is still lagging a little behind the other two. I retied the twine attached to...

No need to scrap the whole plan. Just try to maximize the amount of lumens that your budget and your set-up will allow. Those are just ideal numbers, you can always grow with less. Take a look at those people growing successfully with a total of 4 CFL's. Just doesn't yield as much bud as...

You actually want to use lumens for your measurement. Different types of bulbs with same wattage can have different levels of lumens. From what I've read, 3,000 lumens per sq ft is ideal while a minimum 5,000 lumens per sq ft is optimal. there are many different opinions on this, but to give...

looks like you have all your questions answered... but just another tip... put each plant in a separate container. i'm currently using a 7 gallon container for 3 plants (2 different strains). though it's going well now, i have a very small problem down the road. the two strains have...

great to see your grow is progressing along. been following your grow since we started around the same time. got any recent pics? keep it up.

wish that was what i see when i open my closet door. could you take one with flash? looking awesome jigfresh.

yeah man!!! it took two weeks for them to recover from the transplant, but they did and they are loving life right now. even though they made it, i will still never do a soil to hydro transplant again. thanks for following along the way and providing guidance. hoping my grow turns out at...
