Hi everyone,

Just in the process of my first grow, my only plant (which has hermie'd slightly, pulled out about 4 "balls") is 24 days into flowering. Not an amazing plant but i love her....Let me know what you reckon.

By golly I reckon you gots to start somewhere, and boy you have gots it started. Too bad about the balls. Light leaks? Bag Seed? Tell a little more about your setup Plant looks healthy to me.

My plant started its life growing on my windowsill, it was growing really tall and thin, so i built myself a grow-cabinet. I made it a stealth grow inside an old chest of drawers.

I started out with a double strip light fixture comprising of 2 x 18W tube flourescents. The cab is 1.5x1.5x1 ft.

I worked out that it wasnt enough light so i invested in 2 compact flourescent buls.

I then decided to plant some more seeds so i partitioned about 1/2 ft off the bottom for a veg chamber which i put an 18W tube in.

My girlfriend has bought me a 200W 2700k envirolite for xmas and as i have been a good boy i was allowed it earlier, and i have just installed it today. I have put all my plants onto 12/12 now so the veg chamber is gone.

Before the new light my temps were running around 80 now they seem to fluctuate between 85-90....
