For being a low budget grow it looks pretty good Pancake, do you plan to get any reflective material? For $20 or so maybe less ya could get a can of flat white paint an roll it out on that plywood. Maybe get a better light set-up for next time if ya gonna grow again. To me it seems like you are loosing a lot of light that could be concentrated on your lady more. I do know how hard it is on a low grow budget... i am in the same boat. There are plenty of things to use for reflective material. If ya eat chips start to save the bags an use them for the reflective material on the inside. That is what I started with, then moved to emergency blankets, now I am gonna paint. There are always plenty of things to use, just smoke a fat bowl an let the mind wonder with ideas!!! bongsmilie:eyesmoke:

I originally intended on having some sort of reflective material, but my box is 4x4x6 and I would need a lot of material to cover it all. When I began growing I didn't know how much room I was going to need for the lights and plant (I figured bigger was better). I plan on taking what I learn from this first initial grow and putting it towards my next. I'm planning on something simpler and more compact. Maybe a 2x2x3 with one 200watt cfl and a few other low wattage cfl's. Have it all sealed and lined with reflective material, intake and exhaust fans etc.

It's definitely dominant on the sativa side. Long thin leaves, pretty tall (2'6), and more dispersed growth.

Thats what i suspected. I think you will be happy if you let it go about 4-5 more weeks from now, at least. Some sativas go for as long as 14 hahahaha. You might just get the extra chrystal and weight you never knew you could have.
