hey everyone, how goes it? this is my very first grow so if you would like to share any helpful tips, tricks, and/or suggestions, please feel free post em (im sure ill need them). this grow is a shared grow between me and one other member here on icmag.. neondancepanda, where u at my brotha?
anyways, this is our cab, built from a found dresser that i picked up just down the street from the house.
the dimensions are 33"w, 16.6"d, and 43"h
we've got 6 26w cfl's that i wired together myself (3 daylight, 3 bright white bulbs)... not the prettiest job but it works, for now. any suggestions of a better/safer wiring system please infom .
for airflow we have a Broan economy ventilation fan on top of the dresser w/six intake passages along the lower back end of the cab.
here are our two baby girls .. "Precious" - purple #1 and "Lola" - "mystery-Berry" Kush.

the story behind these girls are that i bought these from a friend, in a city that is a 3 hour drive from where i live. i received them with a couple nute burned fan leaves, but other than that they looked fairly healthy. i stored them in my buddies closet under a cfl until the next day, drove home with them in the back seat. when i finally got them home, we immediately placed them into a 6/10 potting soil, 3/10 vermiculite, and 1/10 blood meal soil mix into a make shift home made from an entertainment center w/ 26watt cfl bulbs over them till we finished the cab, two days later (weren't expecting to find clones, reason y the cab wasn't done). so these poor girls have been through a bit of stress as u can tell looking at the pics. their leaves are really starting to droop a bit and we're starting to get a lil worried since we placed them in the cab 4 days ago... we fed them Organica: plant booster pluss 8-2-4 in their water the first two days we had them, thats when we notice leaves starting to droop, so we flushed them and r waiting for the soil to dry before watering again. its been almost two days since last watering... hope this is ok the average temp has been 79-82F w/ lights on, 69-70F lights off. humidity has been between 52-60%
again this is our first grow so any help/suggestions will be very much appreciated . we will continue to update this thread when ever we can. thanx everyone, and thank you icmag for setting up this wonderful community.
