1st grow ever

Well just started my 1st grow ever i am now on day 5 after germination and my 4 babies are looking great 2 especially.I am using a 400w hps light in my shed which is about 10ft long by 7ft wide and 7ft high.I am using multipurpose compost peat free with added nutes and watering every second day.So far so good .Sorry should have said i germinated my seeds straight into the soil planted 5 and 4 sprouted .Growing white widow which i bought from cannabisseeds.com 12 for £10 feminised.as i say i am a 1st time grower so takin everthing 1 day at a time .I have photo's which i will post once i work out how to do it lol.Any advice would be very much appreciated guystoke on 1st pic is of my 2 big babies growing really well 2nd pic of top view bit camera happy lol 3rd pic my set up 4th pic my runt of the litter takin a bit longer to get started but is showing signs of improvement .

looking good. how high do you have your light above them? i'll be watching this

its about 3ft above but was higher until it fell lol so keeping it lower until they grow more then move up again more secure this time but !!!!! lol

also with the white boards i have up its reflecting more light around the plants which i think helps looking really healthy.I am stil waiting for something to go wrong because it is going so well.I will be updating regular to help other 1st time growers who like myself know fuck all about any of this lol .

I'd try lowering the light a bit and make sure not to over water! GOOD LUCK!!

Also try mylar or foil for added reflection you can put it on
the floors to reflect the light upwards

ave been told by a few people that foil burns the plants ! and they are gettin plenty of light just scared of burning them if it is too low but thanks for the sdvice at least you are good enough to leave a comment

Day 6- everything still going good my 5th seed has now germinated and will be gettin put under the light when i start the cycle again .Forgot to say am doin 18/6 cycle .Only 1 wee concerning thing leaves are starting to curl upwards a little but still look healthy and green and a nice little smell too .

You got 12 fem ww seeds for a tenner?

Day 10-Sorry been a few days since a updated ma laptop was playin up technology eh lol anyway ma girls are doin great growin at a rapid rate just a wee concern 1 of them the leaves are quite droopy dont know if this is the way white widow grows or if there could be a problem i have watered them every second day and the rest are doing fine so cant undersatnd why this could be .I have pics of them so if anyone has any ideas i would be grateful for any help .

What are your temps like? That's a lot of light for seedlings

the temp isnt high i hav a fan in with the plants plus i live in scotland we are not known for our high temps lol

Hello everyone now on to day 16 and ma girls are doin great .Still have 2 small ones just think there slow growers and 2 large ones who are amazin (if a dont say so myself) lol started gettin roots coming out of the bottom of the pots so think its time for some transplanting into 3 litre pots.I have more pics to show ye all i am thinking of puttin more light in going to go with a 600w hps aswell as the 400w hps i already have and start doing some more plants in the next couple of weeks .pic 7 is of 1 of the roots if you look close you can see the black bit at the bottom which is a bit of soil lol.again any advice or comments would be grateful.
