For an Overview we have a 10x10 attic room with a 400w MH in one of the bays and a 600W HPS in another bay. We are using ProMix BX and have Botanicare pure blend pro soil Nutrients Grow and Bloom. We like to keep it simple. We water a bit each day as needed and these DinaFem seeds seems to respond well to our growing style.
Grew 3 of these when we first started last fall and loved them so have another 3 pack. Will try to post updates once a week or so. Here are some pics of her on the 14th when she was x days old. Ill get the age tomorrow but wanted to get this started.

For 17 days they are coming along well!. Can I ask when you say you have a 400w mh in 1 bay and a 600w hps in the other. By this do you mean that you will grow some under mh and some under hps or do all plants get both spectrums of light?.

Thank you for the pictures very much appreciated.

Keep up the great work I will pop in when the thread gets updated. Until then great job so far!

All the best

Yes, to clarify its one big open room area with no divider in between. The plants in the grow stage go under the MH light on that side of the room and the older beauties once they start bloom nutrients go over under the HPS. We keep the wings up on both the Lights so light bleeds over and they get some of both spectrums all the time.

Thank you for the info mate. As im new it will take me a little longer get used to peoples grow rooms. You look to have a nice dialed in environment :)

Here she is on day 25 just 8 inches but grew 1.5 today. Getting 1/2 strength nutrients now and will until its stops vertical growth and moves over to the other side. So the attic grow room has worked out great until now. We seem to be getting frost on the underside of our roof. Its gets pretty hot up there and there must be a lot of vapor in the air, even though the humidity in the room is usually around 36 percent while the lights are on the humidly outside is lower. Don't know all the science behind it but we have rafter vents as well as a ridge vent. I have started running my dehumidifier to see if that helps.

Thank you for the update it means a loot. If they have grown 1.5in in just a day I would say that they are now in the rapid growth phase so you should start to see a lot more growth in the coming week. If your humidity meter is reading ok I think you will be just fine.

Again thank you for the picture update

ok, so I guess its been more than a week. camera stopped working due to battery's and kept forgetting to stop and pick some up. finally decided to just take some pics with my old phone.
So the first plant I started in this thread must have stunted early on since she never got too big but she's smelling great none the less. Here she is on Day 73
After that we started another one that is on day 51 now, its the taller one in the pics. Named pics from 2nd plant crit2, crit2-a, and crit2-b. All the others are from the 1st one.
There is a 3rd one in soil that has not popped yet, will keep you posted
