If it weren't stealth I could have not blocked light and you could watch the plants through the TV. :)

I have PayPal balance: $47.26 USD, I will probably sell some shit and grab that hps soon. HighLife, how do you feel about your hps? How much heat does it produce? Can a different wattage bulb be bought and put in?

Thanks, High could you answer my questions when you see this? Also, I just went to adjust the LST (I do everyday to make sure the bud spots are getting maximum light) and I noticed that the bud spots are growing almost as big as the main cola. LST is awesome :) I am debating scrogging but I doubt it. This fast bud is spreading out a lot more then my last one did.

Hey sorry :D .. Gotta get used to your new thread.. In my opinion your missing out not having the hps. The heat is not that bad at all. I keep mine light about 7" - 8" away. The Kelvin it gives off is amazing compared to the 2700k cfls. If you buy a 150w hps system you would't be able to put anything other than a 150 bulb in it. They do have 70w hps bulbs. Do some research on them, see what it takes to hook them up.

If you want the closest thing to real sun light in your box, put a hps in. :D

Hey foolet, looks great man, good luck. Looks like the LST is going well, the fast buds respond very well to it.

I am trying to let the fast bud grow to the most of its potential. I feel so wasteful using 12/12 on an auto flower. How much longer do you think it'll be till they will all show sex if I switch to 12/12?

sub'd man. any chance you could use your old box for your auto?
Na, I am going to dismantle that :( A shame, I put so much work into building it.. Can't leave any evidence. Good suggestion though :) How much longer do you think I should wait before switching to 12-12. I would really like to get rid of the males but I don't want to switch to 12-12 if they can't even show sex yet...

Just got done some hardcore LST'ing. It looks so much better now and you can see the actual main stem (flat on the soil). It looks really cool, I love LST'ing. I give it a few weeks till 12-12.

Just remembered Sunday I am suppose to loose power and have the worst hurricane ever. I plan on having a few mates over puffing a few O's and enjoying it but my plants with most likely be stuck with 24 hr darkness. If it is dark for over 14 hours I am going to switch to 12-12 and continue into flowering.

Yea it totally missed us. :D I was worried about losing power from it also. We always get hit by hurricanes. I have a 7000w generator to power my stuff if the power goes out.

Hope it wont be to bad by the time it makes it to you.
