What is your goal for this grow despite the obvious. There are a lot of people hear that will help you get a good harvest.
Do you have a timer for the 12/12 flip?

Well im hoping that i can yield as much as possible in the space i have with the light i have, and yeah i have a timer and a temperature and relative humidity display, and a fan and tiny fan that has a heater inside to keep the room between 72-78 i have it pretty much dialed in. Only thing i need to do is add a some vents to my closet door and then dial in the temps again, and fit a ScrOG setup in there.

Cool beans eh!
Have you checked out any scrog grows? That style of grow is perfect for limited space.

Yeah i've been researching all about it for the past few weeks, seems to be the way to go, ive topped all my plants once at this point and depending on how many are female i might do it one more time, ive read that any more than that is overkill for a small grow

I think i may have over done the defoliation at that stage in the one pick, and assume the buds would be a little fatter, but they are looking really good and the leaves are starting to turn purple on one of them, because its some type of gsc genetics. Im guessing they will be ready in about 3 weeks. I havnt used nutes for flower at all but have added mollasses to the water on occasion.

The cloth pots aren't really letting you plants breathe, they are "air pruning" the roots ... causing the tips to die so the plant sends out more of the finer roots that actually absorb nutrition ... sort of like topping your plant

So would you suggest not using them because of that. Just wondering because I was about to buy 10g fabric pots.

I think he was just explaining to me what was really happening because i didnt understand, but one thing i recommend doing is using either one of those clothes lint rollers or burning off all the loose fabrics on the outsides of the pots, because some of them will get on the buds if a fan ever hits the cloth pots.

Fabric pots are great for developing a healthy root mass. I can give you the science if you like but otherwise, just go for it.

OK that what I thought. For some reason I thought you were going somewhere else with that my bad. Thanks

I will offer a bit of advice on using them. Find a plant tray big enough to accommodate them and fill it with perlite so the pot can let liquid leak through but it won't end up sitting it
