ok so heres the deal. i had some seeds lying around from the bottom of a recent bag and i figured, why not grow some nugs. however from the start i wasn't ever really expecting it get to the point of budding and just wanted to see some plants grow. i read some guides here on gc and saw in a bunch of places that i shouldn't use halogen lights to grow or miracle grow fertilizer. i went out on a journey the supplies i would need and try to avoid the halogens and mg. when i got to home depot the cheapest potting soil was the miracle grow by a lot so i figured, it cant be that bad and picked up a few bags. then i went looking for lights and found a very cheap 250w halogen worklight so i once again just said fuck it and got it.
now not expecting much from this grow i am actually pretty impressed after 4 weeks with the progress of the two plants. i might be willing now to look into other forms of lighting, but this seems to be working just fine for now. i'm thinking that when i switch to 12/12 that might change fast however. when do you all think i can start flowering?
keep in mind, i bought stuff that wasn't recommended because of the cheapness, not because i am stupid. and i was really really high.
recommendations would be awesome.
peace out
