all right
so 3 weeks a go i started my first grow in my closet using cfl's and fans and everything...my setu is all right and works great. So last week i won a trip to mexico over the radio but my babie ( i had only one who passed the 2 first weeks) was only 2 weeks old with only one set of leaves and a 2nd forming. I seriously thought about killing him and start over when i came back because he was getting limpy ( i grow soil but i am building a bubbluphonic for a later grow as i speak). But i figured out to give him a chance and i decided to make a wick system for the watering...so i took some shoelaces passed them through the soil then filled a big yogurt cup of tested water and putted my plant with the end of the shoelaces dipping in the water over the cup. tehn i setted up everything like it needed to be before i leaved and i left. during my vacating i was worried about my babies and constantly thinking about how they where doing. Thgen i came back and ! surprise! i couldN't beleive my eyes! they where bigger and stronger and they now had like 5 new leaves and they are starting to smell a tiny little bit. Boy i am happy..i hope that everyone who is having a small grow in soil and haves to leave for a week will think about this setup because it didn't cost me a thing and worked great! noww here are the pics...

very creative 
Always good to see such a big change though.
