My plans are about an inch and a half tall now, have about 2 nodes of leaves and are looking good. I'm goign to keep a close watch on the heat for my grow closet,to ensure a good first grow.

Thanks for this! my CFL was about 2 inches from the soil, which definitely accounted for some of that excess heat. Also, to add ventilation i put two holes in opposite sides of my pot so the fan can be put to good use =D. I feel better about my grow now, knowing the temerature isn't as much of...

I planted it yesterday, the soil is moist about a half inch deep. I'm trying to think of a possible way to get air from my A/C'd room(connected to my grow closet) into the actual closet. Since this is a stealth grow, this may be hard.

I'm going to try to transplant into a smaller pot, because my light hangs into the pot i have now and theres no exhaust for all that light heat. I think this will help, but is 80 degrees to hot? I know that once september rolls around it will cool down, but for veg it will prolly be around 80

I have a plant that hasnt even sprouted yet, but i ran into the problem of heat. I hear 75 degrees is a good temp for a grow. Well, the grow room im using is on average 80. This may be ok, but i stuck a thermometer in the soil where my CFL hits the plant, and its about 85-88 degrees. Any...

This tutorial helped me a lot, and made me decide to use CFL's for my first grow. Thanks a lot!

I just bought two 6500K 27-watt daylight CFL's for Veg,and held off on the other bulbs due to money(or lack of). As for the electricity, I have a power strip i'm going to use for my closet, and i plan on adding another Daylight CFL with a Y-split, as i already have a 10.5 inch cone reflector w/...

Thanks a lot! I'm going to go out and get a few 27w+ CFL's, going to hold off on the 2700K's until i need them(and have more money!). But for now, my friend has an overload of foxfarm nutes, and i could probably just use his so Wal-Mart soil will do. Also, a few more questions! As far as...

I'm preparing for my first grow after reading a lot on this site. So far, i have 6 seeds germinating(I only plan on planting two or three, since my space is somewhat restricted)and am just a little confused on lighting. Since I am planning on growing with a low budget for now, I decided CFL's...
