Beginner's low budget grow room

So I thought long and hard about how to set my grow room up its a nice sized space for may 4 or 5 plants i think. I took speaker cable from an old surround sound speaker, some tacks and some wood. I used the tack to tie the speaker cable and hold it in place and for easy adjust for my t5 grow lights. I used an old clear container and it seems miracle grow isnt as bad as some may say the plants loved it just dont over water and you should be fine. I know i should be using Oscillating fans but "low budget" the fans where $5 a piece. Also i have a 10 gallon bucket of water in the room for the humidity. My plants are a month old today and just stopped my 12/12 7 days in. I have 2 lovely ladies ;D have a look.

Also I have soil tabs and flower tabs. dint use the soil tabs cause i dint want to burn my babies any suggestions on how and when i should use the soil tabs?

"BE patient and keep growing....u get what u put in...there r no short cutz...it will be a LONG Road ahead my friend. ..for all of us"

Learn As much as you can, stay confident and creative. .ur plants look pretty good man...u got the lighting conditions right..(4 up this point) you will HAVE to "OBTAIN" a small wattage HID HPS LIGHT SYSTEM.. .*This will make ur road a lil shorter and will learn a great a deal from this next step.....

Or be smart and get an LeD...HPS for Micro grows can suck a left nut...wayyyyyy too much heat to be useful

hey
not bad ........u got some issuse

1 mircle grow is bad do to the beeds in them .........before u cut the plant for harvest u are going to need to Super flush the soil to make the beeds pop and to remove the feed from the soil ......otherwise the smoke is going to taste wrong chemically with a snaping and popping when u burn it
2 the soil amount is fairly small so the plants roots are limited ......meaning the bud yeild are going to be really small
3 u have not talked about feeding the plant the amount of soil u have in there with the number of plants at best u might have food for 6 weeks .....and the food in the soil is going to be off too u need PK for the flowering to make it really pop
4 flowering plants mean smell i see no carbon filter or any ona buckets /ozone gens
5 i do not see a clear air path to remove the heat build up
6 u should really think about setting up a SCRoG screen in your area to control plants streching when u flip to flowering

ok to help u with number 3 order this ........all in one buy will increase the plants yeild and is all organic (enough in the box for several grows but try to use it all with in 9 months it is organic so has a best if use by date)
