Hey everyone; I just wanted to get some quick advice; I plan on her being a mother plant and producing clones.

Age: 25 Days Old (Since Sprout).
Strain: White Widow
Soil: Miracle Grow: Organic Choice

Lights: 18/6
Temp: 80 Degrees
Humidity: 27%
Nutrients: 620PPM w/RO Water every 12-18 hours.



I've been using about half nutrients lately which comes to about 620PPM's of Flora Nova Grow formula.









Hey everyone; I just wanted to get some quick advice.

All Comments welcome; Anything you can offer will help!

What are you using for light? I think you need to move the light closer unless your using MH or HPS then you wanna be at least 12 inches away. Also MJ dont like mulch and woody soil and shit. When you transplant, get a good soil mix and you won't have to do much. Try FF OF or FF HF. Also any promix bags are good too.

Ooops, Sorry; I've got a 400W Digital Balast with a 400W Hortilux Blue Metal Halide bulb. It's about 16 inches away from the plant. Here is a picture of cabinet:


Also, the Miracle Grow Organic Choice was not my "First Choice", but was the only thing availible. I tried some outdoor growing this year in the 5 gallon buckets, but all were males, so I brought it inside. The MG Soil probably sat outside for about 2 months, and got really diluted.

AH yeah your good on the light and the distance for now. Its gonna be awhile before that plant grows big because you got it in a huge container. It is building a root mass right now then it will put out leaves.

Ouch, that means your at a high risk for bugs in your soil.

man you need to get some cfl's and put them atleast 4 inches from that plant, you aint gettin it enough light. I use MG potting soil, it feed for up to 3 months, works well. but get them lights in there closer.

Yeah; it's probably difficult to see, but this should be a better view of one of my 400W bulbs burning.


This picture is taken from the seedling's point of view. The supplemental T5 bulbs are just that. :weed:

Also, the bugs will be killed very soon with a 5000PPM Dosage of CO2 when I get my tank filled.

Well, she has done really well since yesterday, I took a picture and was amazed at how much it has propped up. I'm excited to know that more has been going on underground then above ground, because not much activity has been going on; however I would like some recommendations as to when I should top her.

Here is a link to my journal, where you can see the rest of the grow:

Hey guys; thanks for giving me some advice recently. I would like to get any recommendations as far as fimming or topping.

If I plan on her just being a mother, should I top her?
