Just started about 4 weeks ago and hoping im doing alright. So far no problems just need a little reassurance. I started with two 80w long cfls and just today I wired a 400W Metal Halide ballast. I am in an apartment, have no idea what kind of seeds im growing. Used some seeds from a bag of nugs I had bought, damn good weed. Just set up a humidifier since levels were low but now up to over 50%. the temperature of the room is now about 84 degrees from an average of 75 with the cfls. Using Miracle grow soil, which had very low nitrogen/phosphate/Potash levels, so I added slow release plant food which is 17-17-17. I add nutrients once a week at 24-6-17. How am I doing?
how am I doing?

yeah your doing ok, but your not using your lighting to the fullest. put down some white posterboard or somthing bright white or like mylar board on the floor so u get more reflection and better lighting, the more light u use the better and its not wasted cuz the carpet is soaking up a good amount that u could use to further your growing capasity.
