looking nice doogey and yes they have fattened up nicely. cant wait till your harvest i wish we had vision smell i bet it smells great.
so that wierd looking plant i might grow it in my micro grow im doing. idk if i told you guys yet but im doing an micro grow with cfls just as an expirament for that little wierd plant growth still hasnt improved so im going to start nute feeding the grow big!! how many tsp per liter do you recommend!

and right now i have a pineapple express seedling wich im going to have under a 400wmh. in about a week.
belileve it or not i got to fit in a 400wmh bulb in a 2x2x3 area temps are a lil hight around 87f but i think it should be ok.
i heard its bad to have fans blowing directly at your canopy. why is that?
also i am planning to grow 2 plants under the 400wmh/hps and lsting or harvesting ofcourse cause of space. but what do u suggest is better.
i want big buds. but what will be better for big buds scrog or lst. thanks you guys for the help and happy growing!!!

You know as far as nutes go I would say do the old standard half of whats recommended from directions described on product. My experience with nutrients is quite limited. I did use Kool Bloom but I could not give a report. For the mid flowering I have gone with the "Lucas Formula." It has been keeping ladies happy. The kool bloom powder which has very high potency I used very sparingly during week 5 @ half a gram per/gal. During this time I added floracious bloom, all GH products. Then I found that the "formula" uses the brand of nutrients I have. For vegetative this is 0/5/10. For flowering it is 0/8/16. But as for your plant I would not give it more than half recommended. Wait did you say experiment then double the recomendation and add fourty!! lol Got to go. As Ever,

thats the color of the inside of my hood.
Yeah, i thought about it after posting, and realised that if it was the film, it would have melted by now, thanks for getting back to me.

My new tent and light turned up today, and I am now a happy, correction very happy 400 grower :)

I started over from seed, 400w mh for veg, then when I switched bulbs to hps I switched the cooltube from horizontal to vertical.

Using the same ballast, 400w, for both mh and hps, wish I only bought ballast that accept both, I have a couple other mh only I'm not using.

I vegged them for another week after switching to hps to let the lower branches get some light and blow up before switching to 12/12.
