Pompatus's first CFL grow - Lots of pics & updates

Hey GC. My first sprout got fried, so this is going to be my second attempt. I'm panning on LSTing two small plants. I've looked through pretty much everyone's grow journals and I bought Jorge Cervante's growing book, so I think I'm pretty prepared. For the record, i am not trying to grow the dankest nugs or yield alot. I just want to grow. I know my space is small, but i have to make what i have work

Seeds:

7 x Middie bagseed

1 X Chronic bagseed ( I picked up a quper of purps and found one seed in the whole thing. I'm hopin its a purple lady )

Soil:

I'm using Gardener & Bloome organic potting soil. I looked at all of the soil that was at the nursery and this seemed like the best one.

Plant:

I have one plant that is already about two and a half weeks into veg. My buddy planted it on his balcony and he said he'd give it to me. Its at about the fourth internode and I can see female preflowers. Gonna start LST on it as soon as I can. From what I can tell it is very sativa looking. It has long slender leaves and is kinda stretchy, but that might be because its outdoors.

Grow Box, lighting, ventilation, etc...:

I have an old Kenwood speaker that I dismantled. I had it lined with foil, but I took it off. I'm gonna try and paint the inside flat white.

2 x 26W daylight CFLs

2 x 23W warm light CFLs

1 x 18W bright light CFL

Total: 116W

2 x 12v computer fans, one for exhaust, one for circulation (until I can get a bigger one)



Here's dome pics of the setup
