I think he is just starting the plants in the box.
If he is trying to grow an entire plant....
It will probably yield like 20 grams tops, if that.

this is interesting....so i suspect this is a hydro setup...makes sense....faster growth in a stealth box correct? realized it once i thought about it...

not ready for hydro myself.... cool setup though... wasn't thinking of putting the fan on the outside..

20 grams! that would be fantastic, with this being my 1st go at it i would be very content w/20 grams!
the medium is rockool and hydroton
side mounted fan 25 cm works in conjuction w/ front fan. setup has great air movement! i have a 105 w cfl

how long till she(celeste) starts recieving nutes?
when should I start the flower stage?

she is nearly 2 weeks old(day she sprouted)

you gotta LST it or it gonna get to tall for your pc. once you go to flower you can expect it to get about twice as tall or more from when you go to 12/12.

These were pix taken today, about a week from the last photo. I have just intoduced the nutes within the last couple days.

Any thoughts on when I should start flowering? I understand she will double in size when going to 12/12.
Right now she is 22 days new. any knowledge thrown my way is greatly appreciated

Dang, tough to say when to flower in such a tight space. Maybe give it a few more inches, then switch to 12/12. Hopefully it won't get too close to the light so as to cause burning, but be prepared to tie it down if it does. It should continue to stretch for a good 2 weeks after switching to 12/12.

Haha, nice stealthy setup.
LST helps a lot. Both, to control growth and to get a better yield. :)

I've done LST myself... Check out my grow journal :)


All the best to u though :)

hey now

these pix were taken yesterday. currently she is right at 3 in tall and i am thinking of going to 12/12. I understand this is not normal practice, but i am limited in space and I would rather not shoot myself in the foot and have her outgrow the box. I plan to LST to maxamize yield...:joint:

Cool man, subscribed!!!! We really do have the same exact set-up, though, I made some modifications.

I also have a much larger project underway, the link is in my signature

You need to flower that sucker immediately, she'll already out grow your headroom..You will have to LST!!
