Here is a rough idea of the set up so far

Well I am giving them 6 hours darkness whilst They produce the seedlings. . All 6 popped ok in water in the cupboard. One has broken through as a lovely green shoot. I'm worrying about the proximaty of the 250w CFL light now. Don't want to have too much brightness appearently. Got a heater next...

I'm passing out on the sofa Haha. Best go bedtime night night every body.

I'm hoping that is one aspect of the grow. I've also heard that the ruderalis likes the cold night time??. So I am after some clarification on this score I guess if I'm giving them 24hrs of light to start then 18 when they're flowering . As long as I'm getting some reliable advice ijj to happy.

They are in a seed tray,in a propergator in a 2ft cardboard box with a 250w giant CFL in a reflector on the box like a lid keeping the box just comfortably warm. It's when they move to in the open I'm not sure what is ideal for. I'm panicking as they are autos and I would like to have them grow...

So there is a very big lesson I have learned here. Then thrips ate my crop. Painful lesson. Shameful way to learn

No I'm using my spare room. Infront of a window and under a dual spectrum his. My concern is what temperature the room is going to be while they are starting and before the season warms up. I understand that autos like a chilly night from the ruderalis. I'm wondering what temps I should aim to...

I'm trying to grow some auto seeds for the first time. I understand that they like the cool night time, but what I am wondering is?? Do I need to put them in my tent for warmth as it's not warm here in the UK. I'm hoping to use sunlight and a grow light but I am concerned that they won't veg...

So thrips ate my entire grow save the corner or two of 4plants. No joke.

I've got them all under one 600w sodium bulb now. Because it is enough for the remainder of the plants.

Yes I have had some issues with plants eaten buy thrips. Eaten as in I'm down to less than a half of the plants left. Grrrr.still I've got 4 flowering plants and hope to see a few buds make it.

I'm botching the cooling for now ! I'm hoping to have 2 x 200w chips in each old skool open reflector hoods. The cheat will be where I literally put them into HID air cooled hoods until I get some heat sinks and diffuser lense set ups. Still. The raw lights excluding the air cooled hoods are...
