I recently started growing because I'm sick and tired of paying someone for pot. I took some seeds from a bag of kind bud I got, that happened to have been pollenated, and germinated them in a wet paper towel. I scraped together some money, bought some basic supplies, inherited a light system, and threw together an about 6'x6' grow room in my basement. I've got them going on a HPS 1000w light, they're in coco fiber, and I feed them specialized coco fiber nutrients and rhizotonic. They are 34 days since germination. I've been reading up all I can, but I don't really have any idea what to expect, so I am asking for any advice or comments you might have. Pictures were taken this morning.

They need to be under a Metal Halide light so they can grow.

Try to find a MH conversion bulb and they will grow very well.

When they have grown to your satisfaction then switch back to HPS and change light cycle to 12/12

Here is one off of ebay http://cgi.ebay.com/1000-watt-Halide-Sodium-Conversion-grow-light-bulb-MH_W0QQitemZ180240304960QQcmdZViewItemQQptZLH_DefaultDomain_0?_trksid=p3286.m20.l1116

I don't really have the money for a new light right now, is it gonna be okay going through vege growth with an HPS? Also, are these indica plants? I think so, but I'm not sure.

they look indica to me, but i'm not an expert. the HPS can be used for both stages, but.. your yield will be decreased due to the lack of growth in the plant.
