hey lookin good.. i took notice that your plant looks to be about the same size and shape as mine. did you do 12/12 from seed? i started flowering mine 7 days ago when they were exactly 4 weeks old and it has shown to be a girl! wooo... i'll be watchin your grow bro-ski
I'm growing a Lowryder Dwarf Mix... so it flowers on it's own i never switched the photo period it's been on 18/6 the whole way so far... it wont get no bigger than 16 inches tall

yeah i was having the same issue about cold at night what i did was i lined the walls and floor with styrofoam then put mylar over that it bought it up about 5 degrees or so. Just make sure that its not dropping to drastic.but i was going from 75 during light to like 50 at night stupid Mid west weather.

i think the droop is most likely over watering. might be root bound but i doubt it

Nope, I had this same problem my first go... it's underwatered for sure. If you're watering it often enough and it still is drooping then your soil is too loose and lets the water flow through it without hangin around...
Hit it with some water...

Oops, I didn't read well enough... let me just say that if they are "drooping" and they are not relaxed then they are overwatered... if they relax then not enough... Could be the temperature swing... I'm not a pro... yet

Looks great man keep em going... im having the same trouble in the north east with the temp at night dropping to about 63 in my grow room... i popped a heater in the room on low to keep the temp up woring well.. the heater was 20 bucks at lowes and its fan blown so it circulates the heat well!!
buds will start appearing before your eyes the next couple of weeks.

Ok so heres a question... i had 2 25 watt soft white and the grow was slow but steady on its third node. the temp stayed at or around 80 degrees... today I added two 27 watt daylight spectrum and my temp spiked at around 90 degrees. I turned my fans up and repositioned them to blow up still hitting the plants for dancing and the bulbs for cooldown... ive had to keep the door open to get the temp back down.. i dont want to kill her with 90+ temps for days and days on end... what to do... i cant drill anymore exhaust in my rental unit and i dont want the electric to kill me using my mini ac.... any advice...Thanks

Theyre doing well but if you had a big CFL they would be a lot bigger I think. It would be worth it in the long run - a £30 or £40 investment for a 250 watter or 2 125w ones will most likely get you a good few ozs over its lifetime. So theyre a bargain really! Just seems a shame to get small plants for all the effort. Theyd love a big CFL!
