How many bulbs and what size are they, I second the notion to move the plants a little closer to the light, nice grow box though, are the lights easy to adjust??

Hmmm looking good there casper. Those plants arent gonna preflower until they are atleast 2.5 months old. Go ahead and flip your lights to 12/12 so you can see their sex. Your gonna run out of vertical room very fast like this. Have you considered something like a scrog or something?

looks good but i would recommend using something else for your LST like speaker or headphone wire. i used string once and when my plants stretched during flowering the string cut into my stem. just a thought.

Liking your stealth grow.. good stuff.. I know it is only your 2nd grow but on your next grow maybe consider lining the inside with some reflective material like mylar & maybe choose a stain suited to your limited space like 'Lowryder' will be checking your progress.. good luck!

How about buying another box? taking off the lid off that one. Screw nails around the top of the first one. Cut the bottom of the new one off. Rest it ontop Vwala! More height. Also try adding some reflective shit inside, might help?

looks good though bro.

ok so i solved my space problem with a quick fix, i have raised the lid to my box a few inches. i've tie it up using some hemp. going to be moving it to a bigger tub soon so like i said this is a quick fix for now

ok and here are some new pics of the kids :weed: almost lost one today, underwatered it yesterday but it bounced back to life in two hours.

Wow plants are looking great there bro. Got some numbers right there. Hope your not planning on keeping all of those in there for flowering without adding a big amount of light. Anyways I'll be lurking..... :) :)

i was planning on keeping them in there all the way through flowering but i have a good 6 more cfl's to add to the mix :) what do you think GFK? should i find another tub and move half to there to flower or can i flower and still have a good yield if i keep them in the same box

Ya that sounds like a better idea. I mean I really underestimated these plants last grow. When you put them into flower they really double/triple/quadruple in size man. And your still in beer pong cups at that. I really advise on getting you some higher powered cfls though something like a couple 85watters. here is a link to a great cfl site www.1000bulbs.com they got pretty decent prices on the bigger cfls.
