Watch my first babies grow, help me out (Pics)

[cajun79]

Around a month ago I bought some Nirvana Feminized Big Bud seeds from Gypsy Nirvana and after 2 weeks slowly building a small grow cabinet I got started.

Im using a 125w cfl for my veg stage which I will start flowering at around 5-6 inchs as my grow cabinet is only 25 inchs high. Im thinking my only option is some lst'ing or to do a scrog.

My main mistake so far was growing them for the first 10 days inside a cardboard box with no reflective material inside the results of 10days growth are in the first two pictures below.

Now 14days into growth and just 4 days in my cabinet they have grown so much and fairly quickly.

Any advice or tips will be a big help to me, im a newbie and could do with these plants producing some bud as dealers around here sell some shit stuff and paying £20 for a henry is starting to get annoying.

I have a 150w hps but maybe I will just go with a 200w cfl for flowering as heat issues will occur my cabinet is very small only measuring 20x20x25.

I have a powerful 120mm pc fan for exhaust and passive intakes.

personally I think you should have started them in smaller containers, it is hard as hell to get proper root growth in pots that big, and will be very hard to water

But the new growth looks to be free of teh issues you had earlier

2 weeks old? Those plants look stunted and burned already.

I don't understand the ref to the other thread Dog???

My comment was about the pics shown above in this thread. Those plants look like shit if they are two weeks old. They are very small and already showing signs of burning from "something".

[Dr Dog]

why not read the other thread

it is his, it shows them like a week ago.

The burning and the stunted growth were already discussed in there

And btw calling someone elses plants "shit" is not very good form dude, especially when you have no pics of your own

 

[cajun79]

I dont think there shit or are they?

Since a few days ago I was ready to give up on them but since then they have really picked up.

Now im insure what to do, I will keep going and posting up picks every few days and take advice as needed.

Thanks for looking guys

 

[Dr Dog]

nah, the new growth is obvious, I noticed it right away, and it seems clean, I see no other damage yet

As long as it is still green, you should never give up on them, just be patient with them, let them do their thing

 

[fizwit]

I read his other thread. No pictures there.

I'll say it again. If the plants shown above are 2 weeks+ old, they look stunted and unhealthy to me. Something burned them. He thinks they were too close to his light?

Does Cajun have any newer pictures?

I agree 100% about the pot size progression. Small plants in big pots is not the way to go IMO.

[Dr Dog]

here is his last picture for ya

you can easily see the difference and the new growth

 

[fizwit]

lol, a putz like that will feel downright unwelcome real damn fast.

Thanks for the encouragement dog, guys like you are a credit to this forum.

I can almost guarantee they will be growing brilliantly over the next 2 weeks I will post up pics to prove it.

My plants have grown maybe triple there size of just over 4 days ago since I moved them into my cabinet with mylar on the walls.

The original first 10 days of growth where in a carboard box with no reflective material or hardly any airflow either so all is looking up.

imo

Quick update of my plants, seem to be really picking up in growth, hope this contines....

 

[Dr Dog]

yup they are getting there

 

[hoosierdaddy]

Prolly just a little hot for them at first. They look like they will be fine and dandy.

 

[cajun79]

Coming along quite nicely, and today they are really starting to let off a stink.

My activated carbon better turn up real soon

Cajun79 keep it up like Dr Dog (notfizwit or dumwit said) they look just fine. Keep your chin up and your lights bright!
