well i finally have my grow room completely setup. tell me what you guys think. i'm going to try to flower the soil ones quickly to get them out of there so i can get the light more on the hydro setup. i purchased 20 seeds from dr chronics, they were nirvana big bud and white widow. i germinated these seeds tuesday, they sprouted thursday, and i transferred the cubes into the pots about 2 (saturday) days ago.

the light i have is a dual ballast reflector with a 400w hps and 400w mh. i got these used, and the guy also threw in a co2 system. the regulator is adjustable between .2 and 2 cfh. my room is 175 cft. have any suggestion for schedules/rate of the co2? i also have a indoor climate controller but i'm not sure if it would really help me...

the lights are 18/6 and the pump is on 15mins twice a day, no nutes yet. those gallon container are to displace water in the grow tub so the whole system doesn't require as much water (still about 40-45 gallons in the res).

as of now the ph of the water is about 7.1 but figured that would change when i added the nutes (maybe 1/4-1/2 strength, will be using GH flora series). when is it the right time to start adding nutes? do you guys think that ph is too high right now? i dont have any ph adjuster at the moment but i do have lemon juice on hand...

to me it looks like my babies are stretching a little bit, is it because the light's too far away (it's 30" away)? it's unfortunate, because i can't really lower the light or it will cut off the light to existing soil plants.
