Everything looks like you are off to a good start.. You did not mention ventilation, a fan is great but if you keep the door closed to your room you will need to get fresh air in there... Good luck
for the time being im doing the best i can. i built a door with a 5 inch cut out on the bottom. a fan is inside the room venting in cool air from under the door. i have another fan pushing air at the tops of my plants but besides that its all me. i got to vent the room by opening the door or leaving it cracked when the light is on. in the dark hours i have tightly sealed a dark towel to cover the opening at the bottom of the door. this will have to work till i can get the proper air/ light tight room.

everything is going good in my world, i killed 3 males yesterday giving my 3 female trainwreck plants much needed room to breath. my biggest trainwreck now stands at 33 inches tall. grew 2 inches last night alone, all plants are healthy and are getting full amounts of nutrients every other watering. all three shared 2 gallons of water/tiger and big bloom yesterday. and all three have lots of little white hairs growing. picture 4 is my biggest TW.:weed::hump::hump:

i've made some changes in my setup. first thing i did was get a better heater for the flowering room. my old one had a glow to it so it had to go. second change is a little 50 w hps light in the flower room. the plants have Mylar on three sides and now the 50w on the 4th. really makes a big difference. the next change is a whole new vegging closet. the closet is 2 feet x 4 feet and 7 feet high. also is set up good for ventilation. the veg room now has a 400w mh and a 50 dollar econ-owing reflector. also got a quiet digital ballast. the whole set up cost under 200 bucks. let me remind you all that this is a 100% legal grow. i am now a caregiver and patient and have 2 patients bringing the total number of plants allowed in the house to 18. i have 3 with a few more about to start. ne way thing are looking good and are going to start rolling along nicely.

nice additions. I love those dual fan units like you have in the first pic. I use one to exhaust my veg, but in the event of something out of the ordinary I can always switch direction the blades run, which has proved useful. Vegging under 400w is very nice. Glad you got a few cards, I have had some trouble finding patients. I learned the shitty way, there are definitely some patients that aren't worth the extra six plants or the trouble. or bad news all together.

as long as you do them well, they will do you well. Plant numbers are scarce in Big SKy Country compared to certain other medical states. No large SOGs for me. Someday plant numbers will not be an issue and we can all legally do what we want. Haven't forgot about ya. You will be hearing from me soon

all three plants are looking great. one plants has 4 main colas, and one that has grown taller then the true main
cola. my biggest TW is a monster. i think she'll definitely be a good producer. enjoy the pictures.:weed::hump::hump:

thanks guys and all comments are greatly appreciated.

each day the buds are getting bigger and bigger, cant wait to look at them this morning

i've also started feeding co2 to my girls thanks to my handy paintball gun hose. feeding every night right when the lights go out, and when the room is the most air tight.

Plants only use c02 when the lights are on. I would reccomend to feeding with C02 when lights come on, and then maybe delay the ventilation for 10-15 minutes if you can, Nice idea. I hear ya about the every day they get bigger. I am on day 18-19 today. We must be pretty close?

Nice nice. You should be proud of that for your first grow. Looking forward to pics. Co2 is something that I haven't had a chance to try to its potential. some day.....How tall are the rest?

all is well and just got done watering so i snapped a few pictures. my big girl grew like crazy one day and got a little to close to the light. i dont think its to bad, a few leaves curled away from the light but still look ok.

also wondering when to start spraying the leaves with water/ nutrients?

Lookin good in there! I had to go look at my pics quick, because i didn't remember my TW having such narrow leaves - but I guess it's just that they look different, once into cola formation.
