Lol fuck that man I like the big pics, keep em comin :) Everything looks fucking great so far man you seem to be doing the cheapo-budget grow just right. I hope those seeds do you right and you turn out with a bunch of females. As far as the plants looking different, you may be dealing with an unstable strain and you're seeing the different genetic phenotypes. I grew some Hawaiian Big Bud from seed and I swear half the plants were long and stringy and half were short and fat.

If I can make a suggestion, however, I'd say not to use clear cups next time. Really there are lots of better containers you can find around the house to grow in besides cups anyway. But if you're gonna use cups like that, I suggest you use at least the red party cup-type or at least put some tape or paint the ones you have. The cups being clear let light in and algae are able to grow in the soil and on the roots. I know its cool being able to watch the root development and all that, but its bad for the plants :( With that said, just keep a close eye on em and give em love and I think you'll have some good weed to smoke my friend!

PS. To get an idea of how well they'll do in slightly larger/more efficient containers, heres an 14 day old seedling I grew in a six inch pot.

Looks good. A friend of mine is doing a CFL micro grow in a box around this size. Keep the pics coming. But yea lay off spraying them. Only water when the soil is dry.

thanks mate..thank u so much..it feels good to hear the feedback of people like u..afterall thats d point of comin to an online forum...

bou t the roots thing..i have already taped it with black tape....ill show u pics to be more clear...i promise in my next post..will upload pics in sometime...

AN URGENT QUERY TO U AND ANYONE READING THIS.

What bugs might i encounter at this point..both in the soil or plant...my last grow failed at this point only...
What could be a measure to safeguard form bugs apart from cleanliness...another fan for blowing air inside...i didnt think i would need as the grow space is very small and enough circulation is generated by the two fans...??? what do u tink

i would use black tape personally, just because black absorbs light. i understand your using clear cups and want to keep your roots safe from light, but id suggest white paper, paper cups or red solo cups

looks like you have an idea what your doing, but i would have LSTed longer and veged untill you had bushier plants with more budsites. yields will not be good

u should wrap your containers, light getting to the roots isnt good, could probably paint them with plack paint and a brush(dollar store), but good job so far man check out my grow (cheep grow)

you mean black paint?

NO dont use black, you might as well keep them translucent. black pots will absorb light and cause heat. not good for root systems
