  4. Pics are a great way to get some help because usually blades can spot something in your cab that shouldn't be there/needs to be there.

    Honestly, I would trash the seeds you already have germinated and read up a bit. I suggest this link first: http://forum.grasscity.com/absolute...s-guide-get-you-started-growing-cannabis.html

    That skims the surface as far as what you need to grow.

    If you can't grow with the really hot HID lighting like MH or HPS, I suggest CFL's. This guide is pretty good reading on how to grow with cfls: http://forum.grasscity.com/absolute-beginners/122824-kamels-cfl-guide.html

    Also, one of the most overlooked aspects of a grow is pH: http://forum.grasscity.com/absolute-beginners/567829-ph-what-means-your-plants.html

    I know it's a lot of info, so don't try to take it in all at once. Read a bit here, find a journal to follow that is kinda like what you're going for, and read a bit more. There's a lot of info on these boards just waiting for you to use, you just have to find it.

    I started off with a similar thread asking if a little 2ft 15w flourescent light would work and I was told the same thing. After a couple years of reading, I'm quite proud of my buds now.
     
  5. well i mean iv grown a few plants before but they were outside and i didnt let them mature and didnt harvest right thats when i found grasscity... and iv read a whold lot gut all that ph stuff and hydro stuff i dont have the money for i jus want sum decent plants to provide me with something to smoke on cause i really dont have that much to spend on mj anymore and it makes me sad and its kinda like a simple med for me to calm me down and keep me focesed amd makes me laugh and have a good time but yeaa and i kno i dont have everythingfor my box like i still need a few small fans i have a rotery fan a small plastic one but all it does it circulate the air but my seeds havent even sprouted yet and i plan on geting a digi themometer and ph test strips and some perlight if they sale it in walmart idk i might not find any but yeaa iv got the basics right now i jus needa get some complex stuff lol......
