    Not sure, the bag doesn't say, all I know is, the soil is peat free & it's for growing tomatoes. I picked it up from B&Q, because I read somewhere that growing marijuana is just like growing tomatoes. ~shrugs shoulders~

    Your setup looks very nice. :)
    I am thinking of setting something similar up, but I am not sure
    if I should go with the 125W CLF's or 200W.
    So your grow will be very helpful in my decision.
    Good Luck and I hope you get super yields! ;)

    That is a nifty little setup, you should get a few more babies going in that spiffy setup. Props on getting some northern lights going, my favorite strain; especially atomic northern lights..

    :p Well, when the light came on, I got a better look of what my ladies did through the night. More Leaves. :smoke:

    2/4 are really progressing. The other 2 are... slower, but still looking healthy.

    :smoke: Hiya BrazyJay, when ya say 'were ur stems people when they sprouted?' what do ya mean?
    I've just checked my plants, cant see no purple, but their only 9 days old.
    ~shrugs~
     
  15. #15 BrazyJay, Aug 22, 2006
    i mean on the 2nd or 3rd day they came out of the ground were the stems purple?
     
  16. #16 dudefromaz, Aug 22, 2006
    well, mine looked reddish/ purple when htey were seedlings!
     
  17. #17 BigOrange2, Aug 22, 2006
    Most seedlings I've grown and seen start with a reddish stem.
     
  18. #18 Grizzly_, Aug 22, 2006
    The stems were a purple/red colour at the start of growth.

    I've recently just put in a little 10" fan, because I was worrying about the thickness of the stem, or its lack of. So i thought having air moving around in the box, it may benefit. But I have a problem, the wire has to come through the front door of the box, letting light come out.

    I was wondering if this may be a problem during the Veg of the plant.
