I have three 26w cfls
Wich produces 5250 Lumens
There is a cardboard sheild over top of it as u guys can see in the picture

i rigged a stove vent on the bottom right of the box for ventilation
the temperature stays around 80-85 with light
and about 75-80 at night

Looks good man. Keep us updated. The one thing I would say is, if you can, you should try and make it so we don't have to download the photos to see them. I use imageshack.us

srry if i get confused im kind of a noob lol

no worries. with only a foot tall you are going to want to shoot for a SOG. you will want to put your ladies into flower just after they get a good root structure, IMHO.

hey what exacly is an SOG and an IMOH? i just started growing aswell i have sevral plants that have sprouted and some that havnt yet. but this is my first time using cannabis.com

IMHO means in my humble opinion. that's just an internet/text abbreviation. SOG is sea of green. it's a growing method where you grow many little plants, usually putting them into flower as soon as they have a good root structure, as opposed to vegging a few plants for a long time then putting them into flower.

So after about 3-4 weeks i should put them on a 12 hour light shedule?
and is it good to use Miracle-Grow plant food?

you can put them into flower (12/12) as soon as they have a good root structure. it is all dependent on what you are going for. do you want only a few, big plants? or lots of small? do you want to harvest more or less?

keep in mind that your plants (depending on strain, etc) can stretch 1/2 to 2/3 once you put them into flower.

i used MG ferts for veg on my first two batches wihtout any problems. people are gonna recommend that you get something else. i just got all of my fox farm nutes so i'm curious to compare. you want something high nitrogen and low potassium and phosphorus, and low in nitrogen and high in potassium and phosphorus for flower.

I got a total of 7 plants if they all sprout accordingly
i want them to get as big as they they can comfortably (i can always raise the lights)
i want as much bud as i can get basicly

well you can let them veg indefinitely if you want. it's really determined by your space size. and you will definitely want to get some new nutes!

Srry if i sound stupid.
But i have heard nute a lot and i still have no idea what it means.

nute = nutrients, just short or slang.

Oh.. do u have any suggestions
on what i should get?

depnends on how much you want to spend i suppose. you can use miracle grow or some other cheap brands or you can pay a little more to get something that might work a little better.

i've only used miracle grow and another cheap brand i found at home depot (for flower). i just received my fox farm nutes but have yet to try them. i hear good things though.

yeah i have heard a lot about foxfarm too

so I am guessing Buckten and Serenity are together? both posting identical grow log photo's and setup hmmm. and as far as foxfarm nutes I am a noob at growing indoors but really dig them so far

yeah same house
shared the same ideas
and both boxes have like 7 each
so we have a better chance of getting females

If you grow large plants you will need alot more light plus it will need to penetrate the canopy.I use fox farms and love the stuff attached 2 photos before ff and after ff see for yourself $$ well spent

nice
how old are they in the second pic

50 days should finish in 7 more? The clones are in ff ocean forest with 1 dose of guano tea trying to keep them under18'' before getting real light for a week or 2 then flower and they end up 52'' on average.Used ff on these and they did very well.Good luck!

All but one of my plants sprouted succesfully
they are growing just as expected so far
i will post pics soon
