why do you have like no soil in those pots?
five gals of soil will give you monsters
i would fill them up ASAP.

i would get fox farms dirt, i didnt see a thermometer so u should get one of those, get some nutes with a high N for vegging, and get some nutes for flowering high P. you also need some 6500 k lights for vegging, as this is what the plants need during vegging.

and i dont think the plants are getting proper air circulation since they're sitting so deep in those buckets. get some fans over those buckets and some oscilating fans in the grow area.
oh how long have u been growing?
 
just since october with one other indoor grow but yeah im gonnna add more soil and that will raise them outta alittle more hopefully enough to get wind from the fan. and yeah, i think im gonna switch over to some fox farm stuff always heard great things about them.

Veg till they're like 18 inches and yeah for 30 days they do seem to be behind the game a bit but they are cute looking. I got the same thing as you. The 150watt hps.
 
Thanks alot, I'll make sure to measure them next time I see them hah they should be atleast 8 inches right now but yeah thanks, how much more will it grow after I switch to flowering?

im gonna suggest taking them out, add soil to 1 or 2 inches from the top. im thinking your plants are getting no light from the sides being that deep in the pots. this is why we buy mylar and paint our walls flat white. also, go to walmart camping section, and get yourself a few emergency blankets. they're under 3 dollars each. cover your entire room with them. your plants will now get light from all angles.

Oh true, those ideas sound great. I'm most likley going to see the plants within the next two days so I'll def add the soil then and maybe I'll even get those blanket thingies you were saying.

For all of you that were interested in my grows I have some that are outdoor aswell I'll make a thread on those soon and post the link on this page.
