Grow Virgin 1st time closet grow

Long time forum viewer, just recently made an account to finally announce I'm testing out my greenthumb! I've been studying on how to grow since I was 14 but I've never been able to go out and get everything I needed until now. Afrew days ago, took the initiative to get 2 y splitters, 3 42w t-10 cfl bulbs, Afew seeds from an amazing medical strain I got a sack of recently and miraculously found seeds in it, and an osc fan. Germinated 2 seeds and they're in blue solo cups under the cfl's, can't wait for that sprout action!! I'll have pictures soon, I'll be updating often and welcome many comments and tips! Remember this is my first time and the point of the grow was to save money so take it easy with the criticism!

I've always wanted a jar of homegrown I can pinch out of when I please.
Here's hoping!!

What are you growing in? are you going to have a grow journal? IF so I will follow it cause i just started my first indoor grow 3 weeks ago

I'm really not sure, I got the seeds from a quarter of "Alaskan Thunderfuck" (what dealer told me) not sure if they're female seeds but I was jus so excited to start growing and so broke that I can't afford seeds online I tried to germ them, so if he wasn't lying then Im growing 2 Alaskan Thunderfuck plants, gonna start flowering both if they're both females then I'll pick the best looking one and go with that one. If they both turn out to be males I'll still have at least a little experience with topping and fimming before I can afford Afew feminized seeds.

Oh! I'm growing them IN a mix of gardening soil and topsoil I got from my girlfriends mom. After 10 days from seed Ill transplant both in 2 10 gallon pots with the same medium, got a new job to save up for a hydroponic system and I'll get myself a nice hid and hps when I can

Here's a few pictures, just took off my iphone. 1st one is what it looks like hidden, 2 is full view, 3 is my light set up (2 y-splitters and 3 40w cfl's), 4 is my "make shift" hummidity dome (solo cup with ceran wrap), and 5 is another full view with my green lamp for when flowering starts. I'll cover all the holes lights can get through and get a better "door" soon, i'm just waiting until i need it since the lights are on 20/4 at the moment. They havent sprouted yet but they've been in the dirt for a day. I'll have pictures as soon as they sprout and like every 5 days after that. I know it's a horrible set up but it's temporary for vegitating and top/fim experience.

looks good do you know if they are a indica dominate strain or a sativa dominate? I will probably post some pics of my indoor grow here soon, just posted the pics of my outdoor and will post more from the pics that I took today. Looks like your going to have a fun little experiment!

Haha, it really could be anything. I'm hoping it leans towards Indica I dont want a tree in my closet

Deffinatly man, saw the outdoor pics those dudes are looking great!

We have liftoff, the seedling just hit the surface, hasn't lost it's casing yet and looks beautiful already!

And those are not dudes in the outdoors they are beautiful ladies haha congrats on the lift off!

Lol, of course of course, sorry girls!

Thought i'd update the post, threw the seedling out. I fucked up and got incandescent bulbs, it was a bagseed, and i could do much much better. Got some bubbleicious from nirvana shop, the CORRECT lights to grow with haha, some mylar and afew other much needed improvements. I'll make my bubbleicious grow journal as soon as they come in and I start to germinate.

make sure you keep them lights as close as you feel comfortable (1-3 inches away) to your girls as possible, cfls need to be quite close. look into these too
