Day 15, today I soaked the pot until I had run off out of the bottom. Her first real drink. 50% RO and 50% well water. It took a gallon for it to star running out. The room is starting to get that skunk smell. Four lights on it with my fan blowing. I ordered my nuits today from amazon. 2 day shipping. going to feed it sometime next week.
Which nutes did you purchase?
Go easy on them at first. See how she reacts. Can probably give her 1/2 recommended nutes. 5 ml = 1 tsp

What's a good soil
How do u get good lighting
N when is the best to grow indoors
I just brought some Dutch brand called biobizz's light mix as it's got little nutrients in which is good for autos and it's really light so the roots can move through the soil easier and I brought the nutrients bio grow for veg stage and bio bloom for the flowering stage.

Wow nice setup. You don't need much light yet and if they haven't broken ground you should have no light at all. one bulb should work for the first week.

Great looking grow! My plant is 5 days old, when should I water her good so there is run off?
Your soil should have enough water in it for the first week. Then make a cycle in the dirt and just add 1 cup of water. About 14 days into your grow it should be ready for a total soak. Then let it dry out completely for your next soak and nuits.

Depends on the amount of money you have to spent. Many say stay away from General Hydroponics (Micro Grow bought them out) from what reviews I've read

I found that raising up my lights made her reach for the sky. On Friday I'll be heading into week 3. Going to start my nuits on Sunday.

So, she is about 19 days from sprout. Right on track. You'll notice a nice pop when you giver some nutes I think.. In your case a little stretch wouldn't hurt so I like the idea of raising lights just a bit. In a week or so you can bend the main and tie it to the side. You'll get more colas and better light distribution this way. For now, see if you can tuck the two top fan leaves a bit to allow lower shoots to receive light.
