This is my first time growing.. I got no money so i just use regular water to water it.. They're 11 days old. There is 3 plants but don't worry about that I only want to know about these 2 plants. I used miracle grow and I use a 100watt fluorescence bulb and keep the light on about 18 hours a day. Yeah I'm cheap... yes that is foil to reflect the light.. lol. I was just wondering if they're doing ok and how long will it take organic plants to grow into the flowering stage? Oh yeah and I have no Idea what kind of weed it is.. I just used what I had from the dime i smoked.. lol I need to set up a fan :wall:

Youre using aluminum foil, nice, im using it on my little seedlings i got as well , a good way to givem a little boost of light and heat i think.But using a dome something i didnt even consider, though a good idea.:idea:

Foil can be bad for your plants if your lights are too strong, but i dont think a 100W flouro will be strong enough to create hotspots and burn the plants. If you get little burn spots on the plants toss the foil and get some mylar. It wont create hotspots, and reflects almost all light. Good luck,

nickel bags??? how old are you? while i hope you are innocently wanting to put weed in them nick bags are now crack & meth bags... you can get them at most any head shop or ghetto ass gas stations usually owned by indians or asians until you see etheir of these ethnicities you aren't ghetto enough... one of the brandnames is "applebags" they don't display them like the crack pipes so you have to ask and you can say "little baggies"

Another problem with using aluminum foil, especially the way you're using it, is the potential for aluminum toxicity. As moisture comes into contact with the foil, some of the aluminum leaches off into the soil and creates toxic conditions. All in all, aluminum foil is a terrible way to increase the reflectivity of the grow-room walls. Mylar or Panda Film would be much more appropriate. If you're unable to acquire Mylar or Panda Film, then just paint the walls flat-white using latex paint. All of those choices are better than aluminum foil.
