Sorry if I put stuff in wrong, I'm also new to the forum. I was working with $200 to setup my grow operation. I have a 400w hps light as well as 400w MH but I think hps helps more idk I'm a noob

It's aluminum foil walls because i already had it, I'm using happy frog soil, I don't have any nutes, but I'll get some and a ph meter later on but for the first month I am very limited cost wise

Hi
first of all welcome to
I will help you get your thread into correct place.

I am not familiar with the lights you use, but there are members here using them.
have the seeds been in water before you planted them? have they popped yet?

 

[Hisoka]

Ah yes. I ordered them from crop king seeds, they arrived pretty fast and I put all 8 seeds in a cup of tap water for about 6 hours and pushed a few to the bottom and waited another few hours before pushing them all down so at that point I switched to 2 paper towels folded in half which I kept in my cupboard and moistened every 4 hours with a squirts bottle they all but 2 had about half inch to inch taproot by 11/17 so I stuck them in solo cups and as of today here's the picture

You are off to a good start. so, now we wait for seed to pop.

Aluminum foil ... be very very careful with that it will cause hot spots. Best thing to do is paint entire room flat white. That would be more effective than tin foil and burn your girls

Trust me I found out the hard way lol I got nasty little burn marks on the leaves. I abandoned that idea very quick !

yes welcome Hisoka. I understand it budget grow to start with, would advise at first opportunity to change the tin foil as it is a very poor light reflector it more like sucks all the light up. Matt white emulsion house hold paint is way above reflective properties. i saw this stuff which was very cheap and better than paint.

.used for car windscreen to reflect light to prevent interior heating up. Hope you keep us updated with progress. regards

Here was when I woke up they were getting kinda lengthy, also I may buy some paint in a couple weeks

If you use the back side of aluminium foil, there is no problem. That was all I had in the house and haven't had an issue with it at all

 

[Hisoka]

Just switched over to 400w mh and dropped light down to 13 inches away. 1000w hps will be here around the 30th ^_^

Nice looking plants, does topping seam to work better than FIM? Or do you FIM your branches that were born off the topping
