what about when they get bigger, are you planning on SOG?
maybe when they do get out of hand build a pvc track that runs outside the perimerter of the box and clip the lights on there?

Naw im probably going to LST when they get about 6-8 inches. And then immediatly switch to 12/12. If they get out of hand i can just clip the lights to the bar you normally hang clothes from, since it is a closet.

Looking awesome doc, the rubbermaid is a cool idea for clipping on the lights.. only work till a certain height but then like u said the closet bar is a good place.. and I"m sure your handy enough to build a shelf if need be and use the edge of the shelf to hand them off?? lol, thinking out loud for ya !!

Good Luck,

Yeah that's what i was probably gunna do, i can't think of anything better, but judging by the first 20 days i don't think their going to get that big anyways. I could be wrong.

That's good news on the smell, just means everything's going along as planned and growing well !!! Mine don't have much of a typical marijuana smell, its more of a almost citrus type smell, they also definatly smell "green" ya know like the fresh spring growth in a forest kinda smell. Its actually quite nice !!

Looking awesome Doc, Heres to hoping they have a explosive last week of veg !! However I know that once they hit flower they'll do the growing you and myself previously was hoping for/expecting. I'm on day 1 of 12/12 and my plants have made atleast an inch upwards movement.. Can't wait to see yours do the same man.

So guys i got a new project. This guy over in the next thread thinks CRI don't matter when you deal with CFL's. He claim's doesn't matter because HPS lights only have CRI of 22-25 but give me a CFL that emits 120,000 lumens and i won't give two shits about the CRI either. Anyways we are going to find out. My plants are 7 days away from flowering. Im going to take two clones from the SAME plant, put each clone under the same watt bulb but one with a higher CRI (color rendering index) than the other. The only thing that will fuck this experiment up is if the plant hermies or males and then i won't be able to compare buds. Let's pray that doesn't happen. BUT i have feminized seeds en route as we speak so it doesn't matter im doing this experiment.
