Heat shouldn't be too much of an issue in a properly controlled grow tent, it's pretty easy to regulate air flow to keep temperatures 75-85 degrees, so using CFLs only because of the heat issue isn't a very good reason. Go with the HID MH or HPS. Preferably a High Pressure Sodium if you are only...

Don't know how I feel about the box to keep the light out. Just some standard duct tape or reflective tape would be better than placing a cardboard box over it, it also looks like you could use another air stone or a larger air pump. Check out this tutorial for a cheap, DIY Hydroponic system...

Happy to help friend! Any questions you have feel free to ask, this is why this forum exists, to learn and to help learn.

You could also compliment the natural low profile nature of NL with a little LST. You would be surprised just how much growth you can fit in a small space if you train it right.

Northern Lights, it's one of the go-to strains for a beginners first indoor grow. It is a pure Indica strain made almost exclusively for indoor growing with a short flowering time. It grows low and bushy, is high yielding, has a great taste, and is a very forgiving plant for first time growers.

Try to do away with the ridges on the sides and add Mylar for a more reflective growing area. You're also going to want to cut a hole in the bottom and out of the top near the light for ventilation with a small computer fan in each if possible. The bottom one blowing fresh air inside, and the...

It's elongated, but otherwise seems fine. Seedlings stretch out like this when there isn't a sufficient amount of light. They grow rapidly in search of more light, producing a longer stem with less foliage. Like DeeTee said, either add more lights, or move the current lights you have closer...

Most of bud growth happens over the next few weeks, why would you pull her early?

If these are your questions friend, you may want to consider reading a few guides on the basics, and maybe browse the stickies for a bit before you attempt a grow. A lot can go wrong, and for new growers, usually does. It is a fun and rewarding hobby, but you can't go into it doing a half ass...

What is your watering schedule like and what nutes are you using?

Also, good VPNs are operated globally, if it is not, do not use it. There are plenty of options that could keep prying eyes away from your true identity. This whole "The government will find you no matter what if they want to" talk is bullshit. It's said by people who do not have a basic...

I agree with you on the basic common sense stuff, but you are wrong on quite a few other points. I believe you are unfamiliar with how a VPN such as Tor really works. Also, if you want to have a secret conversation, that is a silly way to go about it. Anyone with a bit of cryptology knowledge...

Go with a 250w, if even that. You'd burn everything with that monster in there buddy.

Seconded for mylar, if you can't find it buy camping blankets instead from Wal-Mart. A pack is 3 bucks and is about the size of a queen size comforter. Those suckers are made of mylar.

You could wash the soil away, separate the roots and attempt to transplant them into multiple containers. I believe there is a chance to save most of them.

At the beginning and end of the plants life. Near harvest many fan leaves turn yellow and die as more energy is diverted into producing large buds. Stay informed my friend, and good luck on your grow!

If your parents are your number one problem you might want to reconsider this hobby friend. If you're adamant on it, read some of these stealth grow forums, they can be quite helpful if given the time.

You'll want to try to get at least 100watts on that plant, that single 25w isn't going to cut it. The leaves yellowing, drying, and pointing could either be a Nitrogen problem, or a watering problem.

Welcome to the world of growing friend! It is completely normal for this to happen as Ringsixty said. They turn yellow until they fall off as the new leaves take over feeding the plant. Cotyledons are only in place temporarily to feed the new plant until a good root and leaf structure are...

To maximize growing potential it is important to know many specifics regarding this herb that you cannot get with a conventional college degree that only relates to certain aspects of growing marijuana.
