Hello everyone. Here are update pix of my first grow. I started with 5->gave one to a friend->one turned out male= So now I have 3 healthy girls that are ready to flower..I think.

The seeds (from Purple Urple bag) sprouted on March 15, 2007. Day 78 Vegging. They went through some minor stress here and there cauz Im a complete noob. But over the past 3months zoning out everyday on this forum, I can now say that I have some knowledge in growing the proper way. I wasted no money on this grow. They are currently under 4 Floro tube (from top):: 1 Floro side tube::7 100w CFLs (for side growth)::and my new 400w HPS light is all set up and ready to flower these ladies. I'm going to use all the lights I purchased during the flower stage.

I transplanted twice until now, yesterday was my final one in preparation for flower stage. They are in BIG pots now :)

I used Miracle Grow ferts with most expensive soil mix. I jus told the guy at the gardening center, "whats the best mix i can make to grow weed?" He was actually an experienced grower himself, so he mixed some good stuff that you expert growers mention all the time in this forum. I am moving into my own apartment (finally! I hate my fuckin pussy ass roomates..excuse my language) in a couple days. I have a big garage that I'll use only for growspace, and park outside.

I am still a noob grower, so any suggestions would ALWAYS help out. I think I have nute burns on some leaves..u guys tell me wut it is? i also took out the damn tin foil :)
I bought some molasses today after reading VidMan's sigs. I also de-chlorize the water before each feed. The windows are always open for ventilation. I'm trying to do every small detail right, so I would love some comments or advices. I am planning to continue to grow in the future as well, I have a friend who is a big time dealer in LA who also has a bunch (like 200) of dope ass seeds that he'll give me for free. Those who actually read my entire post, you rock!

Radio Shack has a magnifiying device that has from 60x to 100x for $10.00. I found it hard to use. It has a small focal point. You almost have to take a cutting of what you want to look at. I use a 30x and when I went to Radio Shack they didn't have one. VV

they are all right about your plants, they are going to be huge!!!!

but just curious, looking at your pics i don't see any fans in there or anything... what are you doing about air movement??? cuz like an oscilating fan in there would help give the plants fresh air to breath (oxygen rich air builds up around the plants and without a breeze of some sort, they'll be choked for c02)

but since you said you'll be using ALL your lights for flower, just put all the floro's for side growth and the HPS on top, and you will have some beautiful giants

thanks for the inputs. i have all windows open all day, one very close to the plants, so they're always gettin wind as if they were outside. I'm still wondering how I might solve this problem in their new home, which is a one car garage at my new apartment. It might get stuffy in there this summer.

I'll have a couple fans runnin next to the plants? any suggestions to ventilate a garage?

I jus recieved the HPS light! im excited. I'm almost done settin up the new grow room. The Temps have been ranging from 60-75deg. till now during vegging stage, is that good?bad?

I'll update pix after i start flower.
