I'm using 1 1000w led light for the whole grow because you guessed it, I'm cheap and i want to experiment for my first closet grow. I'm also not going to be using any nutrients. I'm using 3 gallon smart pots and Ocean forest mixed with perlite for my medium. That's it!! The light I'm using is from Amazon; Gliixer 1000W LED Grow light, dual switch.

The plant with the Pisa statue was leaning due to the fact that it is not in the center of the light thus bending towards the light at an angle. That strain is NL auto and will now be called Pisa until the grow is done. All pics with the Pisa statue from now till end will show Pisa's growth. I will be rotating the plants daily so each individual gets a turn under the light. I will definitely be getting another light for future grows. I'm also using a three-way Meter to check for soil moisture. I bought a Ph meter to get my water at around 6.3 - 6.5. I found that my tap water after its been through the Brita purifier will get pretty close to ideal Ph.

GSC is already into flowering stage, pistols are showing up, Both NL are still in Veg. Fastbuds aint lying. I bought real growers recharge. Added a Teaspoon to a Gallon of water. Will be watering with recharge for veg and flowering stage. Towards the end of the week and starting next, I will be adding Organic "Tea". My tea recipe is 1 gallon of distilled water. Coffee grounds (Nitrogen amendment), 1 teaspoon of powdered eggshells (Calcium), and 3 banana peels (K). I heated up the water until just before boiling, placed ingredients, turned flame off and let it do it's thing for a couple of hours.
