This is my first indoor grow i am basicly new to growing mari. Here the situation i been over 6 month whitout working now so im making a setup out of stuff i have around. For my 1st grow i bought thumper seed from bcseed they where in special at the time. + with the special offer they sent me 10 additional seed witch was 10 galaxy seed more over they made a mistake and sent me 20 seed of thumper. I actuly started the seed about week 3 ago.

Anyway here how i started it.

Fisrt i started seed in damp bounty between 2 plates.


My first grow box (cardboard)
Note : after further reading on forum i realised i placed the aluminium foil on wrong side + firured out would have been better painted white.






I planted 2 seed but it appear i either overwatered 1 plant or i did plant it too deep in the dirt so it never came up ;(
Those pics are about 2 week and a half.








I do put a little of this in my water thats all i got for the moment.



After a while even if its somewhat growing "outside" i think growin in a box is quite dangerous so i decided to build a grow box out of wood i had home. Im still missing some building material but i might be able to get some soon.

Fist i had 2x4 so i sliced them in 2.



Builded the back


Now the front


Now frame is done


The grow box will have 3 compartiment total box is 55 inch high, 4 foot long and 2 foot deep.

Please feel free to comment my grow since i think i will need help in near futur with my grow

Till then ill keep reading forum ;P

your plant will grow up soon enought, having a bush and stocky plant is great. you will get great buds with it growing that way. also you might wanna think about taking out the tin foil, foil causes hot spots and can burn your plants. add some mylar, that will give you great reflection and will not burn your plants.
