My first Indoor Grow as MMMP start to finsih

First off i want to let everyone know that this is my first indoor grow and i started on a budget, and as i went on i upgraded. I have pictures from previous setups and ill be showing the progress as we get further into my grow. As of 3/2/16 im at 2.5 weeks. Started flower cycle at week 8. Here are my current specs -

2x 1000W HPS
8" Inline Carbon Filter + Fan ( Also have a booster fan to put my CFM in the 900 CFM since my room is like 740 CFM )
2x 16" Oscillating Fans
5 Gallon pots
Fox Farm Ocean Forest Soil
Fox Farm Trio (Big Bloom,Grow Big,Tiger Bloom)
Fox Farm Sledge Hammer Flush
PH + and - with tester
Cal-Mag
Distilled Water

NOTE: After purchasing the 2 1000 watt HPS, i didnt know much about amps nor electricity. PLEASE, dont do the huge mistake i did and ran these lights on old installation. So we ended up running new wires from the box with 2 new circuit breakers for each light. We ran this under the home and back up into the room with two separate boxes, one for each light. All breakers and wiring corresponding with volts,wattage,and amperage. I cant stress enough how important this is! I didnt know anything untill my landlord nearly had a heart attack. Lol and yes, my landlord approved me growing with my Med Card. Huge thanks to him for this even being possible.

SO, here we go!

First i started off with 6 clones. I was really on a budget considering my son was just born, so i had figured out my own lighting system! CFL right? cheapest bang for the buck so i heard! Anyways, i went to The Home Depot and purchased a metal sheet, 8 6500k CFL bulbs, each equal to about 100 watts. I basically crafted a really ghetto light, BUT non the less, it worked and i was getting great signs of new growth.

As you can see it was rough, but as i stated, they survived and continued growth. Now my next upgrade was a 250w CFL Grow light with a hood. Eventually i get another, adding up to 2 250w CFL Growlights with hoods. And also a carbon filter 8" with a fan, all thanks to my wife :) Also i know that aluminum foil was a big No No, but we learn as we go, since then we have upgraded to mylar. But this was after the MH/HPS was purchased.

Okay now before i switched them to 12/12 HPS, i decided i would take it upon myself to make some clones. Results? All of them rooted. to be fair, all of the ones in the dome did, i learned by killing about 5 by trying to put them into the grow rooms HPS.
And it shows the plants at the switch.

Now im glad to say, through all the progress and slow upgrades, im pretty proud of the results so far. The plants are flowering now at 2.5 weeks. flipped 12/12 at 8 weeks. Here are the girls now! for a first time, i am very lucky. Although since the start i have been using this great forum and other resources to learn how to cultivate medical marijuana.
