well heres some pics of day 7 and one of day6 and some pic of the clone I maid for stonerbean.I took them out of the closet in to a sunny window,I think i leave them in the sun for an hour or so. :)

p.s. the clone is from the purple plant,it has not grow at all yet but it is still alive.do clones sometimes get bad shock and take a long time to snap back?

thx for looking everyone! me and bean will be making the grow box soon,in a week or two I hope. :) more pics coming in 7 days stay tuned

well heres day 21 im starting to get impressed with the growth rate.It's got 4 nodes and its not even as tall as a pack of zig-zag's.the last picture is the clone it's also taking off.I gave them two feeds of 24-8-16 miracle-gro(it's mixed a bit weaker then packaging says) and i added one more clf.and there both out of the little tiny pots,and in ones a bit bigger.I want to try to keep these plants kinda small so when should I top it???like days or node number?I was thinking top it when the 5th node comes?? i don't know..any help would be appreciated. thx :)

i just added an other CFL,so in total theres 5 in there now.2 big 40 watters one 23 watt and two 13 watters.its what i had around the house,ill buy better ones when I get around to making the grow box.they are happy in the corner of the closet for now.I have a fan in there as well.I like to take them in to the direct sunlight as much as i can too,but if its cloudy they stay under the cfl's.ill put a pic up later!! :)
