:bigjoint: Hello people, I am focusing on 3 plants under 250w hps. I was told these were feminized and are Bubblicious, AK 48 and Super Skunk, there are also a couple of freebies in there as back up. Lights have just been put on and a small fan is running, temps are 31-33 Degrees C. Nutes are root booster, earth grow and earth bloom. This is a first time grow and I smoke ganja all the time but have never grown it so please be gentle. :-P

I would raise the smaller plants with books or something to get them closer to the light. If you don't they will stretch and become long and lanky.

I have a different light, much more powerful, check out the stickied post in General Marijuana Growing called Things to know about lighting.

Week 3:

1st day under 250w HPS, around 20 days old. Today the real lights kicked in and despite have a fan running the temps are getting very high (32-34C), need to keep cupboard open until cooltube arrives. I am also looking into a carbon filter kit from ebay for £50 and im considering a home made CO2 solution with yeast, sugar and 1.5l plastic bottle. PEACE

Hi there, the light is about 50-60 cm away from the light. Thanks for the advice Canadian Dank

Lookin good buddy, once that cool tube gets there things will be good man. You'll be able to have your light just a few inches above, and your plants will love it!

Seems stretched and weak. Would lower the temps, put the light closer, get a fan and have it blowing on them to promote stronger stems. They are streeeeetching.
