Indoor Question About Lighting. First Grow

[AndyBotwin]

Sounds good, Ill do that. What do you think about germinating another seed and adding it to the grow room now?

With autos you have no light cycle issues, so you can have plants of all ages growing side by side. If you've got the room and enough lighting, put as many in there as you want. I think it's nice to have plants being harvested about two weeks apart. Once one is finished drying and has moved on to the cure, you've got a new plant to chop.

Cool, I was just worried about having to move the lights closer as the first two plants get stronger, but Ill be able to keep the second two plants further away from the light. Just set up to germinate them. Thanks!

Once the smaller plants start to grow larger, just put them on a box or something to make them the same height as the older plants. Here's a shot from my current grow:

hi i have sum aluminum and copper roof flashing hanging around and would like to no which 1 would be better reflector material

Aluminum is more reflective than copper. Be careful with both if you're in an area with high temps because they'll reflect heat back onto the plants. An alternative is a a coating of flat white paint which works very well as a reflective surface.

Very cool, I was thinking of doing something exactly like that. So hopefully the last two seeds will germinate today or tomorrow, and Ill have 3 Big Devils and 1 Royal Dwarf.

So its been about 3 weeks since the first plant sprouted. Ive transplanted them both to bigger pots, and they're starting to grow more. Ill take pictures later, but would you say its time to start adding nutes? Or would you wait till they're a month old?

 

[itsofficial]

So do you guys think its time to add nutes? The first picture I took yesterday, and the second picture I took today. They're both the same plant. And at this point how far should they be away from the light? Its a 400w HPS.
Thanks
