Noob Practice Grow, Advice Welcome

[bortron5000]

Wassup GC. So I've been cruising these forums for about a month reading everything and was inspired to try to grow some bagseeds I came across. Its just some low grade mids, so I figure if I fuck it up, no problem. I'm calling it a practice grow because I plan to buy some real seeds and start something legit when I go back to school. For now its just me and some ghetto lights in my closet growin some mids.

So I'm working with so far:
2 Cool Natural 15 Watt CFLs (6500K)
1 Soft white 45 Watt CFL
Miracle Grow Potting Soil
A Shitty Fan

Here's a pic of my setup, I forgot to resize so i wont put them in the post, sorry.

Its just two plants, both of which seem to be doing fine. Here are some links to pics, please take a look and let me know if something looks wrong with them.

Plant 1:

Plant 2:

My plan is, since my parents live here and I dont want my room to smell like some skunk, to transplant these outside once they get big enough and I think they can handle it. We'll see though, I might just flower them early and get a tiny bit of bud. Frankly i'll take even 1 nug if I grew it myself. Comments/advice/criticism/whatever is appreciated. Peace .

So Its been a bit more than a week since the two babies sprouted and they're coming along fine, they seem pretty hearty. I just added two more cfls to bring my total wattage up to 127, which I hope should last until I bring them outside. I've got a few pics here,




This is number 1, its a day older.



This is number 2, it had some stretching problems at first but has caught up to its older sibling.

I haven't been watering them too frequently, maybe once every three days or so, and they seem to be doing great. Holla if yall see and problems. Peace.

looking healthy man, you're doing the right thing in not overwatering them.

even bagseed from mids will turn into some fine dank if you grow it right. how much love do you think the cash cropper showed it? love is the BEST fertiliser.

good luck, +rep for taking the plunge.

Alright I suppose its been a few days and I aint got shit to do so I suppose I'll post some pics. Things have been going pretty smoothly, although the closet I'm growing in has SHITTY ventilation, and I have to close the door when I go to work so my dad doesnt come across my little operation, which makes the closet hella hot. I turn off my biggest light when I'm gone now just to keep temps down, it sucks. But here you go,

This is #1, still looking a little greener and a little stronger than its sibling.



From the side


Very Nice, now #2, whos started bending to the right, towards my big light. Silly plant, theres another light thats just as good right next to you.


And from the side




I also thought I'd show off my extravagent, top of the line grow room, equipped with old shirts, boots, and lights hanging precariously from multicolored strings.


Check the Strings


I think I'll post a ghettoest grow room thread and see if anyone can beat this. lol.

This is the end...

This weekend I was away and my dad went into my room, into my closet and found my plants. They didnt even know I smoked weed. Now I'm pretty much fucked. I dont know what they did with them. I dont plan on trying again, at least not here at home.

So peace out for the time being marijuana growing section of GC. Its been good.

Yeah Mr. Light Man, turn those lights down! c'mon!
