This is my first take at this so let me know what you think.
My cabinet is 4' tall, 4' long and 2' deep. I purchased 7 clones from my local club and I also have 3 that were started from random seed.
The clones are:

Scarlet Fire S/I Flower time, 9 weeks
Af-Goo I/S FT 7-8 wks
White Widow I/S FT 8-10 wks
Purple Punch I FT 7-8 wks
Romulan I FT 7-8 wks
AK-47 S/I FT 7-8wks
Purple Kush S/I FT 9-10 wks

The ones from seed are at least 4 months old, believe it or not. they were abused all their life until last week, when my cabinet was finished. The dog actually ate them and all that was left was a stick with no leaves, but they came back to life :)

The cabinet is lit with 23 watt cfl's and has 2 computer fans, for intake and out take. They are on a 18/6 day/night schedule.

Comments appreciated! Thanks!

they are 27w 6500k from home depot. Im not always going to have lights in every socket, going to use those 90 degree splitters to place the lights close to the plants.

Yep its about time to learn to top, so far looks like your scarlett fire and AK-47 are the healthiest. Try pruning the new growth on those two. I myself like the one cola all the way up and down the main stem stem, looks fing sweet.

Update:

It's been 8 days since I brought the clones home, 6 days since I transplanted them into 1 gallon containers. Two of them have roots sticking out the bottom already, the Scarlet Fire and the AK-47! I'm so excited!

Thanks for all the comments :)

The White Widow has roots too!

I'm not sure if I am gonna do any topping or anything else. I have to look into it more. I'm kinda nervous to do anything to them, being my first time. I'm not sure if i can take scissors to my babies just yet :)

As soon as one starts to show roots transplant that girlie into a 3 gallon pot. Now it depends on how tall u want your plants but with your lighting I think u could get some quality smoke with 2-2 1/2 foot plants. How tall are they so far? Will be flowering my lavender at 10 inches and expect a 2 foot plant. now you have multiple strains that grow at different heights so you are going to have to be crafty lol. Nice job!

The Purple Kush and the Romulan has roots poking out too!

Waiting on the Af-goo, I bet tomorrow, and the purple punch which could be a while. The PP is looking better but a much slower grower than the others for sure.

Man I hope that romulan pulls through. Have a seed of it and I am curious to see how it grows. By the way is there some magical subscribe button I am missing or what?
