So i'm postive it's not blue dream now, from what i've seen it's mostly sativa, long thin leaves. Haha it's kind of funny to be able to confront my dealer about throwing a name on it XD
"I grew that shit out bro, it aint no blue dream.."

How high above all the plants it your 150w bro? I've got mine about 4-6 inches away at all time!
Yours looks a little further, so I wanted to say that It's safe to push it with the 150's unless you can't cool the room efficiently ya know?
And my CFL's have burned my leaves maybe 2 or 3 times to date, because I try to keep them so close! Like 2"-3" from the plants at ALL times. Sometimes parts of the plants get closer to the CFLs than that! But I rotate them like every few hours.

You also might have moved the lights further away to take pics, so disregard that if that's the case, but I think you could DEF. condense the light you have in there!
And you could angle the box fan up towards the lights to help out while the oscillating fan covers the girls!

Good luck bro. You got this :joint:

was yours from clone or seed? i know they say b.d. is clone only, but i got a qp from cali and it had about 30 seeds in it. ive popped about 10 of them and the ranged from sativa looking leaves but with a squat bushy stature more typical of an indica, and the exact opposite, an indica looking leaf with a tall lanky sativaesque (even a word?) stature.. and some in between. probably random pollination but hey... could be something extra special in those beans. but if it is or isnt, blue dream that is, your plant still looks like its gonna be great smoke!

the reason i said that about the different looking plants from same bud is because if it was a seed you planted, it very well could be half blue dream, and half some mystery bud. could be less or more potent than blue dream. but anyways, who cares? if everyone grew the exact same bud, we'd be pretty bored of the same old same old

Yeah, I keep it about that high for heat. Some days I can bring it down if its cold outside i just open my window and it helps alot, but it's been conciderably warm lately and a wee bit too warm in the room. and I might end up taking out those cfls to get hps closer, and it sucks with plant #3 stretching so much further than the others I have to take that one into account when placing lights too. Its just a pain growing different phenos with small light in small closet lol
but thanks man, i'm definatly taking that into concideration

Flowering Day 24

3 bagseed
150w hps (+ afew cfls)
Home-mixed soil
Ph'd tap water
blah blah blah, read the OP for the info. bongsmilie

So they're all looking great, #2 had an accident lastnight. unfortunatly the fan fell right on top of it, split the stem right in half and bent off one of the main tops... So I chopped that top off, cut afew nodes of fan leaves and bud sites off, DRENCHED that stem in clonex and started crossing my fingers.

So I used zip-ties to hold it together until it heals up, it's been about 24 hours since it fell and she still looks good, and the one shoot that was damaged and tilted to the side is already facing up towards the light again!

So here they are today!

IT looks to me like you are wasting electricity. all heat issues aside, you are not making effective use of your lights. Those 2 60 watt light that are hanging at the top are almost useless that far away and that hps is far too high above your plants. next round you may want to try lst. Good Luck.

yeah, apparently fans are seasonal in most stores? So I'll have them closer soon enough, went to Walmart target and homedepot lastnight and I'll I could find were heaters. And I can't get that hps much closer at all because of plant 3, unless you can think of how I can work around that? Anyway thanks!

Hmmm, put a couple phonebooks under it's pot to raise it up? That's what I used to do, and am frustrated as since I switched to hydro I no longer have that option :(
