First grow - White label Super skunk & White Widow

Hi guys,
First post on the forum, have been doing a lot of reading on here over the past few weeks and got enough information together to start a grow.

Been smoking for years and had enough of the prices and poor quality of the weed I'm getting off of other people, so decided to give it a shot myself.

The Grow.

I had 4 X White Label Super Skunk seeds that I brought back after a trip to Amsterdam a few weeks back, and 2 X "White Widow" seeds out of a bag from someone that I also germinated.

3 of the seeds successfully grew shoots and the other 3 did not but after 72 hours between the paper towels I decided to plant them anyways.

Currently using 4 X 26w spiral Cfls on the seedlings but will be upgrading as they grow, any suggestions on which lights to upgrade to/add would be appreciated, will be using a 600W HPS to flower.

Using a 50:50 Coco Coir:Perlite mix in approx 500ml bags, 5.5 - 6 Ph water.

Got Coco A + B nutes but won't start using for a couple of weeks or so, any other recommendations of other supplements would also be appreciated.

Had first 2 small leaves pop out today with the shell attached, will see what happens with the others.

Any questions or help from anyone is welcome.
Cheers!

Hi Steve cheers mate, will be adding more cfls and poss some t5s for the veg.
Will be moving them to a cupboard under the stairs when they get a little bigger which is approx 3'x4'x7'. This is where I will be using the HPS.

Morning peeps,
These photos are from day #14, progress has been a little slow but plants still look healthy, should I be seeing more growth than this at this stage?
Also got the temperature up to 25-30° watering every 3 - 4 days when pots loose some weight.

Yes under stronger lights you would see a lot more growth .....

Get them Under your Hps now at about two foot from the seeds till they are bigger and you will see a diffrence in days ...

Cheers Steve will see to that next week, just waiting for the closet to become available.
Do you still use supplementary cfls?
And at what stage would you recommend introducing nutes?
Thanks again

Yes I have four 35w Cfls in with my Hps lamp ...
I think it depends on how big your plant is to introduce nutes, you have still got a couple weeks to go before you start.... But watch the plants leaves they will tell you if they are hungry :)

Start a new batch. They are so young and underdeveloped that its not worth the work to fix a problem like that when u can just get new ones in a few days.
