haha so i had to restart with some new babies, i left my brother to take care of everything while im away with my girlfriend and he killed them in about 3 days lol, luckily they were still super young so i dont feel bad, but i believe he just gave it too much of everything or something of that nature, so now im back to square one lol.

He got excited! :weed: That sucks. We've all done that though. I've killed so many young plants, just from over-loving them. lol. Clean slate, though. Hopefully you have move seeds/clones to work with. Good luck on the second-go-round.

So that's where we are. 4 weeks of Flower, plants of same age... And one seems to be maturing a bit faster. :?:

Set up my flower lights, like so.

Veg box, up and running! 20/4 for this box. 2 more Lavender Satori and 1 Blue Grape (fatter leaves). I have some seeds that that just popped, 2 Snowcap and 2 Purple Snow.

When the 2 in flower are done, I'll put these 3 in the flower box and continue! :)
Hopefully, they are female. (Fingers crossed)

It's not too bad. When I walk my dog around the block, i leave my house opened up. I come back and i only smell the fainest of faint bud smell. They release more aroma when i move them around. Nice sweet smell though.

Thanks. All feedings have been water only for about a 1.5 weeks. I have 6 CFLs in the flower box. 4 23 Watt "warm", 1 bigger "warm" (can't remember wattage), and 1 23 watt "daylight". Then in the Veg box, 4 23 watt "daylight" bulbs.

Five weeks, here and gone! Upward and onward to week 6!
Had to kill the Blue Grape that was in the Veg box... Male. Made me sad. It was the only indica i had growing.

mwine87, nice tubs! The light mount from the outside looks like a great way to save space. Nice work with the LST too.

What do you think about the glossy white paint? Are you detecting any light-hotspots with it? How are your temps?

I'm subbed! This is gonna be fun.

Thanks, oTm! It has been fun! :) The gloss white hasn't had any noticeable affects... The only hot spots are the Bulbs themselves! haha. And unfortunately, I don't know the temps. I don't have a thermometer, and i don't think i really need one. The flower box doesn't get hot, really. The air exchange is enough to keep it cool. The Veg box, on the other hand, is Hot and Humid. It's sealed with a couple of DIY CO2 Fermentors. The plants seems to LOVE it though. I burp it from time to time, just so it doesn't start raining in there. Thanks for Subb-ing. I think i'm subb'd to your's already, looks great!
