Whatsup all, so this is my first grow, I have the stealth hydro 6 pot setup. which for the money, lol do not buy it, you can easily make this system for less than half the price. But i do admit seeing how it is all assembled made me realize how the system works and now have the components to build my own more effiecient system.

anyways

im using the stealth hydro setup with some smaller fluorescent grow and bloom tube lights, and some other random aquarium light i have from my old salt water fish tank, I dont know what they are but theyre orangish and bluish in color so im using them.

heres whats happened so far...

August 21 2008
Germinated Top 44 Strain for 4 days, 6 seeds
in a moist paper towel inside a ziplock bag.

August 22
Planted in soil for 5 days, using miracle grow potting soil.

BTW... it took 16 days to recieve the bubbleponics sytem LAGGERS!

August 27
Hydrosystem arrives
transfered to hydro some plants didnt recieve full root extraction.

August 30
3 days in the hyrdo system
3/6 plants show roots in the resevoir, pertruding less than an inch.

Sept 1
5 days in the hydro system
5/6 plants showing roots
some with massive root system
1 plant root pertruding about 3 inches, barely touching some water in the resevoir.

Sept 2nd ROOTS BE GROWIN MAD. Seems like the plants are focusing energy on the roots yo.

heres a crappy quick video, Ill do a better one tomarrow, and get some pics. Its from Sept 1st...

I love that system, yeah you can make it cheaper, but I bought both of mine. I swear by it and I get mine within 3 days everytime. I have gotten 2 of them.

yah, i just moved the lights out of the way for the pics. but they are about an inch and a half away from the tops. I want to get more lights for the flowering stage, im not sure what i should get. one of my buddys is selling a 100w hps with a ballast for 25 bucks, maybe that would help. idk im a newbie, any suggestions for more sufficient light.

and yah i made some covers for the rockwool. thanks mane2008.
