Hi everyone im a complete noob at this its my first attemp to cultivate this amazing plant indoors . specially cause this all started wit me being super baked and having access to craigslist like siriously u can find everything in that site. i saw a grow tent that was kinda of a kit already it consisted of the cool tube wit a 600w hid ballast and it came wit a pretty nice exhaust fan comercial grade and it works like a charm also came wit a carbon filter and some ducking . not a perfect kit but a decent start got it for 500 bucks next morning went to my local hydro store and i purchased the dwc ecogrower from general hydroponics for 200 bucks came wit the pump for the spider dwc system and intro of nutrients . bought a pc fan 4 " for my intake fan currently running fresh air from the outside into the tent my temp is around 76 and 77.5 and the only problem ive had yet is humidity levels being pretty low and my plants started to show heat stress . got a humidifier but dint seem to work so i placed a couple of buckets of water inside and it raised to mid 40% of humidity running a 18/6 light cycle and a 24/7 constant feed of nutrients . its my first grow and i would really like some comments and ideas that might help out in my grow any help would be grately apreciated !!!
the pictures are of my current system and the plants are 11 days old

Just wanted to introduce myself and give a little bit of information about my history with mj. My first experience ever smoking pot was in topeka, ks at a soccer tournament when I was 11. I didnt smoke reguraly till high school when I had a friend who had a steady supply of reggie/commercial that was always free. In high school I was smoking daily for free as much as I wanted to. So out of laziness, I never really branched out or investigated the diverse world of cannibus. In essence, I was content drinking box wine and thinking nothing of it. Then after I moved away, I lost that connection and smoked very rarely due to my employers strict drug screening. I was still very naive on most things about strains, quality, and price. After some time, I moved back home, and got in touch with my old friend who now was steady with medicinal strains. I got to try a different flavor every week, and I absolutely fell in love all over again with weed. I now see weed much like I see wine, there are all types of varieties, flavors, and brands to satisfy anyone's pallet. I experienced: Sour D, Blueberry Haze, OG Kush, Bubblegum, Purps, Glass Slipper, and others that I cant remember. All I know is, this was not my high school bud, and I wanted more. I also wanted to gain more knowledge and find my favorite strain so I could possibly grow what works best for me. I prefer very potent strains that help with my anxiety and insomnia. I like when it hits you fast, makes you grin and after a couple hours helps you sleep like a baby. Looking forward to learning a lot on this site, and developing some healthy online relationships. Thanks for reading

Thanks,

Medical Marijuana Week


The medical cannabis community is under attack, and we must be heard!
More than 100 DEA raids, dozens of federal prosecutions, manipulation of the tax code, and threats to landlords and elected officials --- the aggressive, anti-medical cannabis efforts of Obamaʼs Justice Department must stop!
Join Americans for Safe Access Chapters and Affiliates across the country in celebrating Medical Marijuana Week by standing up for our right to safe access. Take time each day to participate in the week of action outlined below.
During Medical Marijuana Week (Feb. 13-17), here are some other ways you can get involved and make a difference:
1. Monday, February 13: Call the White House at 202-456-1111 and tell Pres. Obama to keep his promise to not use Justice Department resources to undermine state laws, stop putting politics before science, and act immediately to reclassify cannabis as medicine.
2. Tuesday, February 14: Contact Congress, 202-224-3121, and urge your representative to sponsor legislation to reclassify cannabis, end federal interference in state programs, and provide licensed patients and provides a defense in court.
3. Wednesday, February 15: Ask your Governor to sign the DEA Rescheduling Petition. Find your Governor's contact information by clicking here.
4. Thursday, February 16 @ Noon: Make your voice heard at a rally near you! Click here for a full list of rallies.

5. Friday, February 17: Join the movement and help fund the fight for safe access. Find out how by clicking here.

Hey All! Names M. Glory...been checkin out all the sites and love RIU...also been learning on my first grow...lots of questions...About me. First timer...started with about 12 bagseeds back in Dec...under 4 100watt cfls with a diy hood, made out of one of those foil serving pans. 24hrs...moved up to flourescent tubes...(2) 30watt daylight T5's and (2) 30watt T12's...did even better...no nutes at all at that point, just alotta love and study...they got a lil beyond 12"...then I lucked up and found a fellow mello on Cl who had a 150wt hps sunsystem for 50 bucks!!! like new too!! even got the yo-yo's with them...so I rearranged my space and had all installed all the lights i mentioned...oh yeah the constant fan was always there...bought some joy juice and started the feeding ( I know I'm Late) and I have a lil space heater that is programmable to keep everything cozy... Started to flower 12/12 my babes this past sunday...until I hit the jackpot today...Gotta 1000wt hps hydrofarm with bulb and ballast...AND a 400wt MH Hydrofarm w/bulb...for guess how friccin much....150 bucks!!!! like fuckin new.... Now for you experienced guys and gals...you can imagine how happy i am... I mean i got some nice deals...so I know the Weed-God is rockin with me!!I've been wanting to post and intro myself...even show you all my babes, but I am officially in the game. I'm all the way ready to go...all my lights! I can now do the multi room thing..( just gotta work the space thing out) lol!!! So I guess I'm at the crossroads, I'm gonna post some pics to show my babes to this point.. I mean thru all the inexperience- I think they are beautiful! I'm wondering though, is it safe to switch back to 18/6 now that I have the 400mh...I have only been in 12/12 since Sun nite (4days) they were already pre-flowering through veg state...any help advice would be greatly appreciated...sorry if i am re-posting a dumb question...but hey who else can i ask? I have been studying everything i can read...EVERYTHING...PeacenLight!!!
