First off, thank you RIU / members for being my numero UNO site for reserch!
The biggest of my gals is the BCN Diesel at about 5.3 weeks old. The second is the 8 ball kush at about 3.3 weeks and last but not least, Pineapple Chunk at 10 days old.
All seeds are from Kannabia and the BCN Diesel along with Big Band (not yet started) were freebies.
The BCN/8Ball are in 5 gallons and I fear I might have stunted my BCN. Her roots/taproot reached the bottom of her 8" pot and were starting to reach back up.
I should have snapped a pic before the transplant. I thought with the extra space in the 5 gallon she would have room to grow during flowering.
Seeing as the BCN is an Auto, I figured why not just 12:12 from seed with the others. A pending vacation year end might affect any chance of fulling vegging / flowering my girls.
The BCN did however recieve 1 week of the 175w MH light I have but I now know the foil around the tub she was in burned some of her early leaf tips.
This is my first grow so bare with me on the chepo depo set up.
My soil mix is Fox Farm ocean forrest x Miracale Grow Spaghnum Peat Moss x Perlite x Earthworm castings.
I was very light with peat moss perlite and castings because the Fox Farm I believe has a mix of each in it as well.
My Nutes are B'Cuzz Veg and Bloom (havn't started bloom yet) and I'm also adding 1/2 tsp of Molasses to each gallon every other watering with the nutes.
I'm watering every 2 days although I'm thinking of holding off for a little longer just to get a good root system going.
The Pineapple Chunk is under 2x 42w (150w replacement) CFL's at a combined 6000 lumens (not exact). She is also dubble cupped with a air pump running inbetween, not sure if its helping but figured I'd give it a shot. I fill the base up 2 inches every watering and mist the topsoil until moist with a spray bottle every watering. The CFL's sit 3inchs above the main stem and I have also begun to train her.
My HPS is 12 inches above the top of my BCN.
Plz feel free to comment and let me know how i'm doing.

pretty cool little set up. Plants look really healthy.
. The 12/12 light schedule has made the indica/sativa turn auto almost. Which is perfect for my set up.
