    Default New Indoor Grow

    So Im pretty new to this.
    I defiantly have alot to learn and experience. But I figured I gotta start somewhere!
    I started my plants from seeds. They seem to be growing pretting bushy and the leaves are slightly faded.
    I just need some beginner advice and tips please!

    Alright ill just start from the beginning!
    So we just purchased a 1000 watt HID, but were in the middle of figuring out the cooling and ventilation system for the light.
    We started them from seeds.
    At first after germinating, we had them start in red solo cups. Under a 65 watt (this light is a temp, until we figure out the other system)
    When planting them we made sure the dirt was saturated and clump free.
    They out grew the cups and weve transplanted them into a bigger pot. We did the same process of saturating the dirt (were using Miracle Grow all purpose dirt). Its been about 2 weeks since theyve been planted in the bigger pots.
    We water them when the top inch of soil seems to be dry.
    At the moment they are still under the 65 watt florescent light. We keep the room 75-85 degrees with a space heater.

    Our plants seem to be growing very bush like instead of upwards. So last night we actually raised the light a tad bit hoping they'll reach for it.

    It seems like we may have a small spider mite issue, so we just purchased some lady bugs!

    Hi mate firstly from what I've read on here miracle grow is rubbish for growing cannabis in something to do with the slow release nutrients it also looks like you don't have any perlite in your soil which will most probably cause issues in the future.

    And bushy isn't a bad thing u want them nodes nice and tight and not to much stretch 😆

    Easy now buddy! Get yourself a good quality soil from a local hydro shop like a batmix and maybe upgrade the light if you can afford too look at a CFL, Metal Halide or a 250w HPS while in veg and put the 1000w when you Flip to 12/12...:
