I have faith. There is really good new growth two nodes down from where I had to top them. Today I cut them back to that node to give that new growth light and hopefully make it grow.
The cab's temp has been holding steady between 79 and 81 degrees. I may still put bigger holes towards the top to get a little more airflow.

Just caught up and subbed and must say I rather like your work. Although if I may say you may wish to reconsider your nutrient. For example except during the seedling stage the majority of your crop has seemingly been either deficient in nitrogen or it is not intaking it properly somehow.

LOL! Now that I think about it, you're right.
I've probably done way too much expirementing with nutes. Yes, I use MG. All-purpose for growing and Bloom booster for flowering. I changed my feeding schedule way too often and altered combinations of different solutions and at one point I was even usinig Schultz Cactus for flowering. I've been sticking with one thing of late. I've been "making it rain". Basically an alternating flushing/feeding schedule.
First off, it's really easy to remember and keep track of. Secondly, it makes too much sense not too work. The two seedling, z2, are entering their third cycle of "making it rain". I must say that I'm happy with the results, so far.
My nutes for vegging are quarter tspMG All-purpose, an eighth to a quarter tsp of Epsom, and a titch of vinegar just to take the initial edge off the ph.
For flowering I use a quarter tsp MG Bloom, eighth to quarter tsp of Epsom, half tbs mollases, and a bit of vingar for the ph.
I'm going to test the results for a while longer and see what happens.

Yea ol' MG can grow some amazing stuff it just takes time to find a balance. Looking forward too seeing more examples using the as you call it "making it rain" technique which I have found works amazingly with MG

nice setup SinSimian!! i like the foam, i actually picked up some recently. i just stuck a clone in it with no gel or powder, and it has roots starting, no bubbler. how are you liking the foam so far, do you plant the foam right into soil? i picked it up to use for hempy or hydro. subbed up buddy!!

Thanks gumball! I just use the foam for the purpose of holding the clone in the bubbler. I put a small slit in it so I can break the clone out without breaking roots. I've tried to start a seed in it and it was working but I got impatient and opened the foam and stuck them in dirt. After breaking the foam open I realized I should have left the seeds alone. They had tails.

Very Very cool Sin...I loved that video man. I wish I could do that. You do an awesome job with commentary! Planst look good and I think it is cool that you let them have some time out for sunning.

blinks "how'd ya pull that off? Chinese power supply, e-machine or did someone flash the BIOS?"

LOL. BIOS looked good. I have to check the p.s. today. E-machine, hah! Not a chance. I have a sneaking suspicion it's my mother board. Probably a power issue.
