Hey folks new here so please go easy on me, I was a member of Rollitup but I just wasn't getting the information or interest from them so I thought I'd try here.

Ive built a small grow room using an old fridge, I'll let the pics do the talking.

(Since these pics I've added another 3" passive inlet, and put the exhaust through the wall to outside)

I'm on day 14 today. Last night I made the decision to do a little lst, I know its a little early, but I just wanted to expose the centre so it could get as much light as poss, and tbh it's loving it! I think that'll be all until I transplant.

All comments welcome. Please bear in mind this is my first attempt at growing and I'm here to learn and for your knowledge 😁

well i have to say for how you built your "grow room" its pretty epic. not the greatest of designs space wise due to the limitations. But when you get into this category thats the name of the game. Welcome to the Farm and look forward to seeing how your first attempt goes :)

Thanks guys, I've gotta I'm surprised just how well it's working, it's well insulated so it keeps the temps and humidity just right.
So this plant is a fastbuds stardawg, everyday there's lot of new growth. Quite exciting 😁

Just thought I'd get a better picture up, day 15 today and i'd say it's looking very healthy if I do say so myself 😎💪
Growing in canna professional soil, just ordered the canna vega nutrients too as they recommended them.
How much longer would you give it before I transplant? There's no roots coming out the bottom of the pot yet.

Cheers

I love it! Sure beats the shitty cabinet i made in the closet. I've since gotten a tent, but yup I'm also still using the cabinet.
I had the same issue with rollitup. Not nearly as an engaging community it seems sometimes and not as helpful in general. Thcfarmer is just a much better place i think.

Hi guys, I transplanted my girl yesterday as I took the pot off and the roots were wrapping around the bottom very nicely so Ive put her in a 5gal air pot and woke up this morning the plenty of new growth.

day 17 today and I'm sure I can see some small pistals forming already!?
Ive done it in macro so you can zoom in.

I know topping autos is a sensitive subject, but I've made the decision to top mine, it's growing very well and not had any issues so should be OK, fastbuds recommend doing it before day 20 and I'm on day 19 today, my question is, is it best to do it just before the lights go off or when they come back on?

Here's how she's looking this morning.
