Default Your thoughts please w/ pics attached.

Ok so I am just playing around here to see what I can do with next to NO money.. This is my 2nd grow attempt in a decade, nothing special just a couple of shake seeds that were lying around and popped into the wet napkin routine.

Nothing ventured nothing gained...

I can and do have the ability to go on a more serious setup, but like I said just seeing what will happen with what I have laying around the house.

Ok details:

shake seeds, from what I do not know..LoL

currently 4 CFL's, 2 6500K and 2 2700K, custom made reflector out of white foam core.

1 oclilating fan, that is not ocliating, just constantly on both plants.

3 gal pot's mircle-grow soil.

No major exhaust system, just keeping bathroom closet door open, during the 18 hr light cycle and complete dark during the 6 dark cycle.

In the pic you will see the grow area in bathroom, started there with 2 CFL's, added fan after a week, temp running 79-80 during light and 60-65 during dark.

Ok I moved the test subjects into an amoire, last week,plus added 2 more CFL's, BIG mistake on the move part.

Temp went up to 86, humidity dropped and test subjects look like over watering problem, but leaves feel like a heat/humidity (40) problem, real dry feeling...:(

Dont ask about my PH as I dont have a clue yet..LoL, but really think it's a heat issue.

So I moved them back to bathroom closet, humidty is now running back at high 50's temp running 79-80 in light, 60-65 in dark and am fine misting the smaller of the 2 test subjects, as it seems to be the one taking the abuse more harshly.

Here are some pics and thanks for any help, knowledge, thoughts and advice.
