Here they are just 4 days after popin' them out of the germination chamber and into the soil. I have the Blue Cheese in a "green" half gallon pot and the OGKush in the "red" 1 gallon pot.

Here they are after 11 days into vegetation.

Here they are at day 13 of vegetation.

Here they are at day 18.

For the soil I'm using all natural outdoor soil. I Went through it all using a rinse method with tarps and a garden hose and I waited till it baked in the sun so I could take out all the rocks, bugs, grubs etc. And I mixed it with a compost I made. Using: Willow Log Coals, Iguana Dung, Ash Wood Bark and of course Perlite. For nutrients I use 7-7-7 African Violet I've trusted this miracle grow brand for years and it never disappoints me. :)

Here they are under the 45w/2,7k & 25w/2,7k delivering a nice amount of lumens. But still not good enough.. I got another bulb now it's a 55w to match the 45w. I'm waiting until the weekend to get another 55w to match the other 55w.

Here they are at day 27 in vegetation. Blue Cheese on the left and OGKush on the right.

I am bending these plants so that they build up a stronger root. Not so that light hits the inside of the plant.

I have both 55w bulbs now that are producing 7,600 lumens to both plants. I am loli popin' both of these plants. My objective is to grow them into a single cola. Like a flower. Not a big bush. I understand quantity is what everyone on here is probably set out for. I just like the fun of growing and the quality of it when it comes out.

2, 55watt CFLs there both 2,700kelvins each give out 3,800lumens < 7,600Lumens total. I have a Mylar heat shield going over the top of the ballast working as a reflective tent.

I leave my plants in the "tent" from 9am untill 2pm. Then I set them on the balcony till 4:30 or 5pm. Then set them back in the "tent" till 9pm. Then its lights off. Basically I have them on 12 on 12 but I bring them outside at 2pm so they get that UVB from the sun for 2 an a half to 3 hours. Just so I don't stress them to much.

I went and purchase another bulb its a 48watt, 2,700kelvin, 3,000lumen CFL and attached it to the center of the ballast. I had just turn the lights on at 9:00am and there just warming up. (I keep forgetting to grab a auto timer. :lol:)

This is at 9:03 when the lights are giving out they're max spectrum.

Allot of people like to cut away leaves that are covering majority of the plant. What I do is, I take pipe cleaners and stack them on top of one another closest to the lowest leaf. So that you keep all your solar panels but you get all that light hitting the inner nodes. :wink:

When I brought them back in and set the fan on them all night. They came back all dark green the next day. Also my (Blu C.) is starting to grow much fatter and denser calyx's then it was before, its even starting to naturally lose its lower leaves. (Like it shows in images 1,2 and 6.) And my (OG K.) is starting to really take off as well. It is starting to look like how the (Blu C.) was at 16 days into flowering. :3

I got some newt burn here & there but it seems to be doing okay. I'm just sticking to my same old routine. So if anyone has any helpful tips that will keep me from getting newt burn. (In case I do start another). That would be great. :D
