yeah pc fans, once i get a dremel, ill make an exhaust port.

i think my lights are good for now, havent noticed any vertical stretch too much
 
DSC_5512.jpgchecked the under side of the leaf, found a small black pinhead sized dot resting there. can someone tell me what the prob. is?
 
Picture Update:
Topping my plant has shown good results, 3 new shoots are growing out of the main stem.

whilst the topping was taking effect, the bottom of the plant is getting very bushy now towards the bottom.

ive been vegging for over a month now, probably going to wait to start flowering maybe for a few more weeks.

if anything, maybe wait till april to flower.

Picture Update:
The plant is doing awesome. The topping has really started to show wonders. I switched to 12/12 cycle this past week and hoping to see signs of a female pretty soon. The pics really show how bushy this plant is getting. Also, not sure how this is happening but i'm seeing tiny crystals on the leaves even though there are no signs of gender yet.

Picture Update!!!
More pistils keep popping up every day!
The plant is developing a very fruity smell!
Maybe plan on another 7-8 weeks til choppy chop.

Looking good toker. I like the way you used a couple fans for circulation purposes. I might have to implement something similar in a micro setup I have simply because there's room to hang an 80mm fan but there's no room to setup an oscilating fan in the inside to get air movement for those strong healthy stems we all love. Props on the creativity for that one. I knew I was in for something good when the first picture had a bread tie on it. I use those too.

Only question I have is how effective are the fans at circulating air within the box? On bigger plants it seems like the movement would be negligible since the fan itself is just so small.

howd you get the fans to plug in?
Most people convert an old phone charger into a plug for them because it's a DC converter.

Here's a thread on it: https://www.rollitup.org/grow-room-design-setup/385302-how-run-3-pc-fans.html

Looking great Toker. What size is your dresser, roughly? I'm trying to think of something good to do my next grow in and a gutted out dresser sounds like the way to go.

nicely done my man, I wish I had topped my lady now =[. Nevermind, will happen on the next one! loving the PC fans, Ive got 3 running in my set up, but not like yours lol. SUBd. Beautiful looking lady you have too my friend!
 
Thanks everyone for the support!!!

The 3 fans circulate air pretty good, enough to keep the temp down and not burn up my plant.
The only thing i would change is to point them a little bit downwards to reach the lower branches of the plant.
The dresser is about 1.5ft X 1.5ft wide and i hollowed it out so i have about 4 feet of room in there. the good thing i have is that i can adjust the height of the lights.
I'll update with some more pics.
