    Sup to all...question...about an hour ago i took 3 sour diesel seeds and put them in wet papertowels for germination...For the plants i have 3 pots and moisture control Miracle grow... I will be growing in my closet...was wondering if anyone could recomend a good inexpensive light to use that wont run my electric bill...or at least a location to grab a light

    if you have limited space or want to be cheap use cfl's otherwise spend a bit extra for an HPS ($60) that sell at lowes

    if they are already started germinating, you need to get out and get your lights in order. sure did pick a nice strain to possibly kill off. go with some cfls, us say the 26watters, and from there, you have about 5-6 weeks depending on how good you do in veg before you will need an hps for flowering. best get prepared!

    Miracle grow won't hurt your plants...Not knowing what you are doing with Miracle grow will though. ;)

    Have used miracle grow for years off and on and besides burning my babies at the start by overferting (real common with miracle grow soil and adding fert), I have been real happy with it.

    As well, Miracle Grow packages a generic version that they sell at Walmart under the name Professional (or expert?) Gardener. Much cheaper and still a good potting mix.
