got a pic of an dry...almost cured top cola of the roadrunner...it kept a lil of the purple to it...got a closeup of it...well tried to...it stayed frosty as hell...getting ready to cut it up a lil bit to bit it into a smaller jar...i think there is too much air in the jar i have it in...but wont fit into the top of my other container...so im gonna chop it into smaller peices and hope that it cures faster in the other container

also got an update on on the new ones...got pics of 2 of them...one is topped one isnt..which is obvious in the pic...ive been feeding them a 1/4 strength shot of jacks classic 20-20-20...got the duo grow/bloom of these ferts...will be using only these and molasses on my next grows...getting down a good feeding schedule with it now with my newest plants...the whole purpose of starting these in the party cups was to experiment...so they are proving to be helpful.so far they got a lil burn...but they are also in mg moisture control soil...so im not surprised they are getting burned...but praise be fox farms...im growing in ocean forests soil next grow...and these are staying in the party cups...ive also started a few other seeds..6 i think....and the one i have in the plastic shot glass thing...which is growing tall as hell..and fast...it grew into the light the other day and took out a leaf...but is still growing just fine...ill be putting it and the other 6 in the grow box later

have you considered a caddy turning an internal hard drive into an external? 6$ each off ebay very handy for... "sensitive" information
Edit:
Forgot the mention the bud looks great especially for a ghetto rigged setup! Love how it came out and glad to hear you've been enjoying it even if a little too much

think i have most of my drivers loaded again...so i was able to get my card reader going to toss some pics on...here is the 3 new babies...almost 4 weeks in...have been on 12/12 or about 5 days now....i started some LST on the 2 topped plants....seeing as the new tips was growing into the lights anyways.so i have some before and after pics of the LST on them...they are fucking loving the jacks classic stuff....and oh yeah...im glad i bought that digi ph tester..thanks again smelly...my old tester was the liquid kind..where you take the water...drop some of this shit colored solution into it...then match it to a colored chart...it was reading what i thought was 7.2...which is lil high...but it was way off...when i tested water right out the tap...it showed a ph of 9.2 
...while the water i have mixed with the jacks classic showed 7.8....so now i know what was also fucking my plants up...and its whats hurting the plants i have now...im ordering some ph up/down tonight...im gonna get both even tho its always to high...just incase after i add grow/bloom ferts it drops it too low

I actually just tested the calibration and mine is still right on!!! I'm impressed with this thing, I only had to calibrate it once and I dropped it lol and its still working perfect.. THis thing is legit!!
I'm glad you figured out your ph problem, just in time to finish off that party cup grow lol

I don't think you will have much of a problem with heat. It may get a little hotter but it wont be enough to effect your babies.. I think the main thing was your ph, now that its under control I see smooth sailing from here on out!!

What wattage are those? Damn you did get a steal.. They look close to the 2 68 watters I used for the short rider and wonderwoman.

65 watts a piece...and yeah its a hell of a deal...all the other 65+ watt bulbs ive found the cheapest ive seen is around 15-20 per light...here is a link if anyone wants to check them out...http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=250697450909&ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT#ht_3182wt_1137
