Is there any kind of hand tools that i could use to cut the intake out? I need to buy a drill anyways so was thinking of starting the cut out with the drill then picking up a hack saw blade to finish. All i need to do is cut out the intake and a couple cord plug sized holes mount the lights and its finished "for now" 
I'll never be finished tho i think i might just have to grow for the rest of my life always have had a garden growing vegies but i dont like eating them and i sure as hell LOVE my herb with out it the pain in my back is just to damn much to live with and pills are for the sheep still following the gov blindly. This guy is funny looking but his song kicks ass check it out.

So i doubled the amount of veg food my plants got yesterday and this morning after 12 hours of dark they all have grown so darn much i had to move my lights up this morning. Didnt look them over yet for sex signs will later might even post some update pics Also the smell is starting to be more of a skunk smell instead of the veg smell Hope i get some dank could use a bowl right now im out and my back is froze up this morning took me 10 mins to get outa bed it makes it hard to work on my box but i will post a plant update here in a few hours.

Ok so i went through them all the one i noticed pistols on has them at almost every node! I noticed some growth on a couple others but it is till to early to tell on them but the one is for sure a female. So i forgot to make a note that i changed my mix. i went from 1/2 tsp of grow big to 1 tsp then big bloom went from 1/2 tsb to 1 tsb also i added tiger bloom to the mix at 1 tbs. I feed yesterday morning as they were kinda dropy and the new top growth kinda yellow and this morning all new growth is green there exploading in growth also the plant itself it way more stiff and hard to push around heheheh i think they were hungry ive been very gun shy with my feed but i looked into the strain and white widow can take alot of nutrients and is a heavy feeder so ive been starving them but im back on track now. I'll feed them this for another week of so them make up a stronger mix. Having multiple plants per pot also means you HAVE to water everyday i dont care what anyone tells me if the top 3 inches is dry and when you poke your finger into the drain off holes and its dry also your pot feels light then its freaking time to water. I have no burn and my plants look freaking great if my seeds come from attitude ever then i will grow one or two each grow so i can veg them for longer and make some LST monsters also i got fem seeds so i might give scrog ago. Oh and i switched to 5 2700k and 1 6500K to try to force them to flower faster.

Well i think i have some bad news. I had a sickening feeling that it might be now everyday it looks more and more like a male. Damn it guys my big plant the one i trained oh so nicely has turned male on me its not for sure but the growth keeps getting bigger and no hairs yep so unless their new growth its a boy. Some on the other ones share the same looking things on them but with my old eyes everything except my girl is still to small to make out. Im going to for sure wait another week gonna try 2 weeks so at least i can make some premy hash something to smoke on
My female has pistils all the way through her cola should be interesting to watch grow out gona be a mirco bush.

Also this was when they where hungry feed them and they are back to pointing up for some light. Its crazy it only take 5 to 10 minutes max for them to soak it up and start growing again if you watch them you can see them lifting their leafs back up into the "sky" to bad there in a box with some fake ass sun lmao hahahahaha.

Yeah i just noticed that when i looked at them giant sized on my monitor i thought they looked a little different then from the leaf in veg kinda like they are wet and have a glimmer to them the flash on my camera really makes em shine Also this is the Start of bud/flowering for the ones that are showing so now i have another 8 to 10 weeks to go From the first breeders of the WHITE WIDOW "is greenhouse" they say she is a HEAVY feeder and from what ive seen i must agree even tho im not 100% the genetics of my plants so not to be mixed up with the orignal WHITE WIDOW as i am NOT growing greenhouse seeds and i wish i was lmao but we will all see how these babys take it further in flower. I have more of these seeds so if the smoke is good from these ones i will grow more but not be so gun shy about the nutrients i bet i coulda had some freaks if i would not starved them nutrient during veg i was just worried using MG soil that i would burn them but they are monster feeders and explode when i water with feed damn things need water every morning or night i try to switch back and forth and go AS long as i can before watering they let me know what they want by the color of the new growth and overall health and perkyness. Also have to water so much due to the small pots and giant dain holes hahaha i didnt want rot it air trims the roots nicely too!

yeah for my filler dirt i short through it taking out the nutrient balls and moss bark etc and break up whats left so theres less nutrient holding moisture holding crap in the mix. Im going to go through it all next time and mix more perlite in it for drainage maybe some sand we will see.

I keep finding more and more plants with pistils im not sure whats going on anymore i thought i would have some males but i haven't found a one so somethings up theres no way im going to get all females. Not like i wouldn't be happy with all females but im starting to worry more that all my seeds are hermi. like i just got done looking it their and found another 2 to 3 plants starting pistils thats over half of them now have female starts and all the male things i thought i sah have tuned into secondary growth and not bannas? Im just going to have to wait another week or so then when i can get some good pics of the pistils and post em. The big one has pistils in the secondary growth now and all throughout the top if they are hermi i hope they dont show till like the last week of bud so i can get at least some kinda stony buds. Ive looked at hermi plants and mine look nothing like them just straight female goodness so far.

How the hell have you been bud haven't see ya around much the past week got anything going at the moment i dont see anything on your sig? I know i read that that shit is way bad for cannibas it was not so fun picking it out but the pot i picked out complety is doing alot better then the ones with that shit in it. Half of it is peat moss or whatever their mosture control is and the nutrients time released nothing like a boost of nutrients out of the blue to burn your seedlings or such when i read that i kicked myself in the ass for not going through it all or just using happy frog for seedlings then FFOF for transplant just before bud like a week or two.
Next go around i will pull out all the bells and whistles and use all the knowledge you guys have shared with me here on RIU with what i already knew to hopefully grow some crazy dank buds.
Do you know anything about hermi genetics whent he bannas show up most of the time or anything i should look for cuz im getting way to many females and worried they are hermi and will trun on me why else would 70% so far be female out of around 22 plants thats just too good of odds i think what do you think.
