Hello there growers! This is my first time growing, had a few problems with excess heat from lamps in the 1st week, watering too much times, and cold room temperatures but all doing great now, started about 2 weeks ago growing in a closet covered by alluminium foil ( newbie grower, first time, remember ) under a 150W CFL lamp. When having sufficient sun light outdoors, I put my baby there. Started to germinate other seed today, I'll post another diary tomorrow. Always opened to comments and advices, lucky grow to you all !!! 😎

Aluminum foil is one of the worse reflective surface ... my advice, take it off and say sorry to the cook 😄 At least you can get 2 squares meters of milar, it cost nothing, and you will get the results that you're expecting.

@JUNGLE_B4RNS, yes, I'll have to pay around 300-350 € if I want a minimum good grown environment for my future babies, that's a cost that will be paied, trust me, love this type of plant in so much ways man!!

@420grower420,don't forget the TDS/EC meter if you're going for the full setup, it could save you from failure, very important thing when you put money on the table 😉

@JUNGLE_B4RNS, yes, fluorescent T5 lamps are cheapest yeah, but in my residencial country, in this time, we've got about 18/19/20 ºC at maximum temperature of the day, and when i'll reach the flowering stage ( by my estimative counts ), the temperatures will keep higher and higher, reaching maybe 30 ºC or even more, i'll have to descend the temperatures for a perfect environment in the future and increase now for a perfect growth for what I've been reading! So, I'll have to buy extraction and vents and the most needed material anyway, including temperature and humidity controllers! Thank's for the tips mate, aprecciated :D

@bobo420, I was thinking about right now to transplant yeah, i'm preparing the other container! And about the light, i'll improve that soon I hope * fingers crossed * to a 250/300W HID Lamp, ' cause i'm seedling another genetic too so yeah, the babies we'll need a stronger light!! Thank you pal!

@420grower420, looking nice so far, might be time to transplant soon though. Use big enough container and if you can, add a stronger light.
