5/25/09- The humidity level went down and all the plants growth has exploded from that feeding and the humidity getting back down to 50%. The plants got rotated under the lights and the very bottom seed leaf on the plants got cut since most of them were in soil. Roots are at the bottom but not crammed up yet. Temp 78 with 50%.
5/26/09- Raised the plants another 6in. closer to the lights. All the pots felt good and wet still. Added a 8in fan in front of the intake to disperse the fresh air coming into the room. Temp 76 and 53%.
5/27/09- Checked on the plants and rotated them under the 400. Some of the pots are becoming light. Tomorrow I will transfer them into 3gallon buckets.
5/28/09- Gave the plants a heavy watering of distilled water. They were definitely quite thirsty for a drink. The room was at 76 and 45% before the watering and jumped up to 82 and 53%. So after all the plants looked happy with their fresh drink. I started to mix up the next batch of soil with different additives from the one before.

5/29/09- Transplanted the remaining one gallon plants into 3gallon containers. Them rotated them under the 400. Temp was 76 and 53%.
5/30/09- Added the 2 single T-5’s back into the room since these 3gallon buckets are a little bit large for the 400. Now there will be a rotation of plants in the room from one side to the other to make sure they all get a bit of both light spectrums. Temp was 81 and 47%.
5/31/09- Rotated plants under the lights at 81 and 53%. The first 4 transplanted plants received 4 cups of water each to hold them off until the others need watered for a full watering.

6/2/09- Gave plants a full watering(1gal./plant) and turned on the other 400mh with the
Hortilux Blue Bulb. After the watering they received a .5gallon of water that had 1tsp of Peace of Mind (5-5-5) for a ph buffer. Temp 82 and 45% humidity. Plants doing well but I would like to move them closer than where they are.
6/3/09- Rotated the plants under the lights. Checked high/lows 82-74 and 59-51%. You can tell they liked the watering last night. Now with two different MH bulbs in the room I have to keep track of this rotation things closer. Since both are on the humidity level wants to raise. Space is starting to get filled up in the room.
6/4/09- Gave all the plants a couple cups of water to hold them off for a full watering. Meanwhile I mixed up a foliage feeding of Spray+Grow with 1gallon of water and sprayed all the foliage and tops of the soil with the mixture.
6/5/09- All plants got a good watering tonight. While moving buckets around I dropped #2 bout a foot off the ground and landed up right thank you .
Chemdog D#A got a little leaf burnt that was under the blue mh. (blue mh, has a lot more intense light then the other bulb) Rotated the plants after the watering but they need more space such as height. So the table got lowered by one foot. Temp was 83 and 45%
6/6/09- Just checked on them tonight. They are liking whats going on. Temp was 78.
6/7/09- Switch the 400mh blue bulb to 400hps Horitlux hps bulb. The buckets seemed to be lightened up already. Gave all the plants some water to hold them over till tomorrow for a water and feeding. Rotated the plants then. Today marks 5 weeks since we put them in the shot glass.

6/8/09- Day 1- Today will be the first day of flowering the light schedule will be 12/12. I’m going to switching out the universal mh bulb with hortiluxs blue bulb. There will be a hps + blue bulb going. Temps have been 84-78 with 40%. Gave the plants ¼ gallon of water followed by a ½ gallon of water. Let the plants soak up that water for a second then made the first flowering feeding as well. I poured
• 1tsp PureBlend Bloom
To 1gallon of water then fed each plant only .5gallon of this mixture.
6/9/09- Day 2- Rotated them under the lights. The Dehumidifier was filled when I walked into the room so I had temporary high humidity levels.
6/10/09- Day 3- Buckets seemed light…high humidity in the room again. Rotated all the plants gave them a light watering at first of 2 cups, followed by a whole gallon. Then made a .5gal. of tea for each.

6/11/09- Day 4- Rotated all the plants under the lights. Got plates for the top of the soil to help hold moisture inside the buckets and reflect light back up into the plants.
6/12/09- Day 5- Watered all the plants with one gallon of water. Rotated them looks like 3 Humboldt males and 3 females. Temps were getting high in the room 86, so turned off the one 400mh blue bulb and put 2 T-5’s.
