First Grow, everything look OK?

Basically I am just wondering if you more knowledgeable people think that I have what it takes to grow these plants all the way to harvest and if my plants look healthy at the moment. I have a 6400k 54 watt t5 and a 54 watt CFL and two 26 watters. I also have another 54 watt and 42 watt I can use but I don't think I need it yet and is hard to find room for at the moment. I am a little concerned I might not have enough light for later on but not sure. Also, even though I know its not a good idea I am using miracle grow organic and I do not ph test my water... so far so good. As for nutes I was planning on buying fox farms liquid nutes and start using them in a couple weeks or so very lightly at first. Here are some pics.. these were planted 11 days ago

So far I'm happy with all of it and I think I'm ready for vegging I have larger pots ready to go.. not sure exactly when I want to transplant though.
 
yeah looks ok,but looks like a few may start to be getting hungry ..you will def need alot more light for later
Ok, can you recommend any fluros that will get me through to harvest I cant afford my electric bill to go up really. Do I need a certain amount of watts per sq foot of closet or..?

Also I might pick up some http://www.homedepot.com/Outdoors-Garden-Center-Lawn-Plant-Care-Tropical-Indoor-Plant-Fertilizers/h_d1/N-5yc1vZbx7f/R-202519325/h_d2/ProductDisplay?catalogId=10053&langId=-1&storeId=10051#.UN-2IG9X1kY

to hold me over untill foxfarms arrives.

Having difficulty finding sockets, that would be safe to run and positionable, would need a connection from plug to socket since wiring scares me. What fixtures do you have for those CFls? Thanks :peace:

It looks like you are taking care of them good. But you will need more lumens. I have some growers I know that went and got a sunblaze, with 8 bulbs and 4 foot long, and have flowered with that. You will need to get some red lamps to put in the mix. Like 4 red lamps and 4 blue lamps. You will want to make sure you humidity and temp stay in check. Any thing else?

I have two 54 watt lights in a heat lamp type of shade which I would like to take off the shade but found it it doesn't come off so easily, only problem with it is it builds a bit of heat up but not bad. the other cfl's are on a basic desk type of lamp I will probably use them all the way through just for nice side light. the 4 foot t5 plugs right into the wall.
 
noticed my leaves are twisting a bit on my mazar kush this morning was doing it with the single balded leaves on the sleekstack but even the new leaves on the mazar kush are twisting now a bit, I don't know what it means?

I recommend topping the mazar kush early on (not yet though.) I have been running a perpetual 4 plant flowering for at least 6 months with Mazar kush only. Potent and it will stay very bushy.
GL with your grow.

yea and as for sockets they sell what you are looking for at about any hardware store.. I use a extension cord with 3 outlets on the end just want to be sure not to overload and maybe keep the outlets off the floor directly, make sure its plugged in all the way not hanging out at all and sometimes check to make sure the faceplate of your outlets is not heating up.
