So i was lazy this morning and couldnt be arsed to open the cab doors at 4am normally i just roll over pop the door and roll back to sleep. just could not be fucked this morning and the plants had a growth spike over night , so unknown to my knowledge they'd reached the lights so burnt both plants quite badly so ive now topped the damaged branches , so thats a little set back in growth imagine which is exactly what i didnt need :(

Dont worry, they will be ok. I dropped a 8 lb carbon scrubber on one of my plants today, I know how you feel.
Still looking great, we are both rock'n the CFL's !! Mine are Budding like crazy now. I will chop in 3 weeks, keep up the good work

So i forgot to take a pic of the autos but there looking good , house mate still hasnt got them closer to the light yet so think im going to source him some chain 2mrw lol im running out of space fast in my cab havent even fed these guys nutes either , think im going to have to just go with 1 plant in the future as i always seem to get over crowded. Just loving growing to much always to eager to germ and i can never seem to kill a plant lol.

Well it seems the plant have pulled through the bulb burns they received and 99% of pest are dead still treating them.

If your thinking they look smaller than before the bb was elevated and i had to chop the top colas of the kc :(

Also have a few shots from my cfl cab , the bb#1 is growing some nice thick buds but the kc36 is growing rather thin , which is strange as first kc we grew was thick buds, im guessing it could be root bound but have no bigger pots :/

Going to go get myself a basic selection of nutes and pest control before next grow :dunce: think in future im just gonna do 1 plant , with better management ill pull the same weight off one.

are u doing anything for CO2, intake vent or anything? co2 is one of the biggest limiting agents for plants growth. i suggest making a yeast culture in a 2 liter bottle, really easy and provides enough co2 to help those babies fatten up

coming along kanny OTB, bong face has a good point seeing as your not venting CO2 will make a difference.

one big scrog next time you thinking? much better use of light ;)

yeah dude i want one of these dwc pots , guess i better go do some co2 research then i keep shying away from nutes then you got any idiot proof guides don ?

if your going hydro id probably go with the advanced nutes line. simple and works a treat apparently. that's what i'd decided to go for.

CO2 is dead simple man theres boat loads of easy DIY tutorials on RIU.
