Yeah I know, I think it's cause of the super high temps. I just got them under control a couple days ago. Any idea on the deficiency?

I thought 5000k would be good for vegging and home depot was out of 6500k today or I would have got those. Would it be better to just use the 4 5000k instead of adding the 4 2700's? For
Vegging I mean?
Of course they were out of the 6500k's lmao, seems folks in your area been hitting up the depot! If worse comes to worse you could try a buisness or electronic supply recyclers in your area, someone should be trying to promote cfl's in your area for there energy savings comapred to reg bulbs im thinking lol!

Took some pics over to the plant hospital and it seems my soil is too hot! So today I will be transplanting to some weaker potting soil I have. Hope she recovers!

Why are you so desperate to flower? And can you not get your hands on some ffof?

Not desperate to flower. Im just worried if I veg too long when I flower it will outgrow the pc case. And I haven't had a chance to go look. The nearest town that would have it is 45 minutes away and I've been working.

When should I start LST? I've read at around the time of 3rd node? And when can I do topping? I've read about it but I still like to ask questions to make sure I wasn't confused or something.

And I had the mixed spectrum in the old grow box. I can only fit 4 cfls in there now. And I could order it online but it's expensive as hell after shipping.

I know this is a hard to answer, vague question, but how much could I expect to yield with LST, top, and scrog? I was thinking 1/2-3/4 oz? Even if I only yielded 1/8 I would be stoked!

Well my girlfriend is going into labor so I won't be home for 2-3 days. She was watered right before we left so should she be okay?

Woo! 7 lbs 3 oz haha. Think I will be investing in a 150w hps light. How many plants could be grown under that light? I was thinking 2 max?
