HELLO EV1. IM STILL NEW TO INDOOR FLOWERING. THE WAY I HAVE MY SET UP IS. FIRST IM IN A COLD STATE AND MY FLOWER BOX IS IN MY SHED. THE TEMPS RANGE FROM LIGHTS ON 84-70 AND LIGHTS OFF 72-58. ROOM IS 4'X4'X5' REFLECTIVE SHEETING ALL WALLS CEILING AND FLOOR 4 T5 4' FLOROS 3' OFF FLOOR, AND 3 42W 2700K 2800 LUMEN CFL'S SET ON FLOOR SHINING UP INTO THE CANOPY. I FEED WITH IONIC NUTES 1/2 STRENGHT EVERY WATERING. I HAVE A 6" FAN BLOWING STRAIT UP AT MY HPS AND IT KEEPS IT COOL ENOUGHT THAT I CAN KEEP MY LIGHT 6" FROM THE TOPS OF MY PLANTS. THESE CLONES HANE BEEN ON 12/12 FOR 20 DAYS NOW AND HAVE ONLY GROWN 2" IN HEIGHT BUT 7-8" IN WIDTH AND THE FLOWER SITES HAVE BLOOMED. STRAIN IS BIG BUD..




OK NOW QUESTION WILL KEEPING MY LIGHT THAT CLOSE MAKE MY PLANTS STAY SHORT. OR ARE THEY GOING TO START PUTTING ON SOME HEIGHT NOW THAT THEY ARE FLOWERING? SHOULD I MOVE MY LIGHT UP TO A FOOT? ANY ADVISE WILL BE HELPFULL bongsmilie

keep lights as close as possible without burning plant...buds will be denser short stocky better than stretched and fluffy buds.... nice work they look healthy

they will grow at a very rapid rate when your 12/12 cycle is introduced.
the only thing i have noticed is the bud sites flowering and like i said only 2" in height. But i guess i would rather have super dence buds rather then fluffy streached out ones like the last big bud turned out.

THANKS ALOT.I FIGURED I WOULD TRY KEEPING THE LIGHTS AS CLOSE AS POSSIABLE WITH THESE TWO SWEET BABYS.LOL THAT IS HOW THAT LAST BIG BUD PLANT TURNED OUT FLUFFY BUDS IT SUCKED
..LOL. THAT IS THE MOTHER TO THE TWO NEW ONES. ALL HER BUD WERE FLUFFY AND LIGHT BUT THEN AGAIN I DIDNET HAVE ANY NUTE FOR HER EITHER. I KEPT THE LIGHT 16" AWAY FROM THE TOP OF HER FROM SOMEONES SUGGESTION. AND THEN I FOUND THIS WONDERFUL SITE, AND MOVED THE LIGHTS DOWN FOR HER LAST TWO WEEKS. OK PEACE
