First public grow log

Moved from the beginners section, so I'm gonna quickly repost all the info

5 NL seeds
Currently under a 20W CFL light until ready to be put under 600HPS light
Pro Soil, No nutes

Misting of plants every few hours.


This is day 1 (Starting from the day they all got sprouted out of the soil



This is day 3 (Moved them to the main growbox so they had more room to site comfortably)

I'll most more pics up as it gets more interesting

This is them day 9 from sprouting out of soil, day 16 from day I put them between 2 towels. How do they look



The second from the right is bent forward a bit (you can see by looking), I think it did that cause the fan was a bit strong on it.


For day 9 of soil freedom, they look big? I'm only using a 20 W light (long one) that covers them all,


Also when should I put it under the 600 HPS?

I've put it under a HPS 600w Now, here's a pic of my setup

2 outtake fans (including a filter), 1 intake hole on bottom, with hose from outside air (cold).
Oscillating fan, 600w HPS.



11 days from coming out of soil, 18 days from seed cracking

hahha nice, I have that page bookmarked from like a year ago.


I know its far, I'm starting the light 3 feet away and moving it every close (6 inches or so per day) until it's within that chart range.

Plus I have a light meter that lets me know when its the farthest from the light without losing anything.

I think one is overwatered, I just realized now its going to be a problem knowing when they're root bound, because its not see-through

Any input? I posted the problem at

If they're not root bound I won't do it yet, I dont see the reason to stress them out anymore.
I guess I should let the overwatered one sit for a while and recover. It's weird, none of the others got overwatered... and they have sufficient drainage

You live you learn

They don't seem to be improving from the overwater, this is the 2nd day, the droopiness eventually will be fixed


This is the point in time where my prev grow attempts failed, I hope they dont dry up cause i wait too long

i say that light is too strong for those babies, i'd use fluorescent while you are in the Seedling stage and vegative stage,
then when you hit flower stick those under the HPS... and bloom bloom bloom...

"thats my opinion"

It's not the light thats the problem, you can use the HPS from the day they sprout but its not good for them.

I dont have enough money or the effort to build a room for fluorescents, but it seems the HPS is being a bitch.


This is my 5th attempt at growing lol, and they usually die around this stage because I overwater them, now I'm being uber careful, misting every now and then and not gonna water until they get better

misting can cause mold, or fungas on and around you're soil, and sometimes on the plant

i recommend watering instead of misting...

just take it easy on them..

good luck

Those small cups should dry out pretty quickly , Started all our seedlings in cups under a 400 watt MH , they did great. Of course the Hps might be working against you a bit , when it feels completely dry , just water them the next day =) you want thoses roots to dig for water anyways. Make sure you cut 2 or 3 holes in the bottom of your cups , or maybe you have holes on the very bottom? keep it up bro , they're comeing along nicely K+ bro

There's 2 at the top right , one is a carbon filter and one is a really fast rpm one.

Yeah I transferred it to another pot (one of them) to see if it might help the recovery time.

If it works I'll do it for all of them... pics up tomorrow
