Thanks man. I'm sure it will turn out great. SCREW all the haters.

I know what I'm doing so well, i hate it when ppl jump out and judge.

Feminized lemons just grew tails today, so tonight they get planted into their perminant home.

Strange, im doing this as well. Everything looks good so far... For my case I am using a server case that is much taller that will allow me to have alot more space to work with when my girls get older :D Those 2 fans will prove to move a decent amount of air for the size of the case but im using 6 in total fans, Which should move alot of air since my case is large. A tip that i'm using that proves to be helpful is putting a type of those fragrented dryer sheets that moms through in the dryer with your clothes lol. I don't know the names but I hope you know what I mean. Anyways this will stop some of the odor from coming out (depends on where your case is and how far the plant has progressed) and it also protects the leaves that are up near the plant from being sucked in and cut up. Which could ruin your day in other words if you had something important going on. Good day.

hey sly, thanks. The lights are 4 x 23 watters...i hv two exhaust fans and one intake fan and one fan to move air around....temps are higher than I would like them to be, around 80 at the floor, about 90 at the canopy...not much more i can do about that. here's a closeup of the lollipop one, the other bushier plant I made a fatal mistake and tied (as in knotted) the first LST string at the base and I forgot (d'oh stoner!!) to adjust it as the stalk thickened...so now I have a huge bulb where the plant kind of grew around the string...but i think it in effect has stunted her growth and budding capabilities...way less yield on the bushier one as a result...oh well, live and learn...i hv barely any smell from the bushy one, but good stink coming from the lollipop...so much so i have to look at scrubbing my air again...odor gels and dryer sheets just aint cutting it...anyways, peace:leaf:

Hey tokers and growers. My LEMON SKUNKS have popped up. From this point on things get fun.

I got ambitious yesterday and made a bigger grow cabnit. Accomidating 4 - 42watt CFLs.

I also went on a RESCUE mission, and dug up the only 2 plants this season the cops never got to of mine. (lost 250)

Can you guess why they didn't find em? LOL

thanks sly...its small, but I'm happy with it...and that was believe it or not, after 39 days of flowering....39 fucking days and she has i would guess about 40% cloudy, 40% clear and 20% amber tychs...i figure she needs about another week and she's ready....

aahhh...time to wake and bake...a cup of coffee and a bowl of stash

Here's another pic, to illiustrate how i kept the unit cool with one fan. Using the cool tube principal i just used thin plexie To isolate the flo of air, and heat from the grow area. I used passive intake holes by drilling into the floor of the cabinet.

The Plexie is sealed at the fan end of the cabinet while there is a1/2" gap at the door end. Allowing it to pull air fro outside into the grow chamber, then get pulled over top through the light chamber and out the box.:clap: Box holds steady at 82 F
