Long time reader, first journal!! *pics**medical*

Alright so to start, i AM a medical patient in colorado, and abide by ALL regulations of amenment 20.

Now down to it, I've started with 3 skunk #1 clones, all fairly small at the time of transplant, but all with great root systems. My grow space is a closet that is 6.5'ftx4ftx2 ft. It is very poorly ventilated but for the beginning stages of veg i am using 4 4ft t8 tubes so heat is not too much of an issue and we often leave the door open to promote open ventilation. here's some pics...


Later on i plan to run some ventilation thru that white cabinet in the bottom corner




Heres the t8 bulbs. Just a simple Lithonia 2x4 4-32w bulb from home depot hardwired with a male piece to use on an outlet.




Here's some single pics of lil ones. last one has some yellowing to the leaf but it looks completely healthy, from the reading ive done over the years i think it may be nitrogen defficiency?? i donno we'll keep an eye on it and any input would be greatly appreciated!!!

yeah looks like nitrogen difficiency give em some fert if there isn't any in new soil. Whatb strain are ya growing how come only 3 are they female seeds? nvm clones ok.

Looks good can't wait to see how it goes

Thank u this is my first "legitamate" attempt at a grow, any advice is greatly appreciated!!

nice i have a similar setup as you so ill be following your grow to see how it goes. are you gonna flower under the fluorescents as well or are you using a different light for that?

If your soil has nutes in it such as worm castings or something I would hold off on the feertilizing for a few days and see how she does. If your using a soiless mix which doesn't have any nutes at all I would definately fertilize.

Nice that should turn out well.

ya I do have a journal I just put it in my signature

ok so heres some pics of the new growth. watered in small amounts often thru the day fri. and sat. and didnt notice much growth, then moved the lights to about 21-22" and watered with about a cup each sat afternoon, sunday afternoon and again today and i feel like they've shot up...or maybe im just hopeful. yellowing still on plant number three. i was thinking of giving it a week and a half or so to get used to its new environment before trying to inttroduce fertilizers to add nitrogen..is that a good or bad idea?? can there be long term effects of reduced nitrogen if i wait to fertilize??

i hope the grow is still going good
