Update: Here are three new pics I just took today. The smaller plant is undergoing a little bit of heat stress because my temperature climbed to 86 degrees last night for a couple hours. I fixed it though, and now it is down to 77 degrees. Here are the ladies. day 10 of third plant taken at 350 pm december 28th.JPGday 20 of second plant taken at 350 pm december 28th 2.JPGday 20 of second plant taken at 350 pm december 28th.JPG

I wouldn't worry about the temp getting up to 86 as long as you have good ventilation. I average around 80 and 86 and my ladies are thriving. I'm using a 400w digital conversion ballast and running two auto strains, BCN Diesel and AK47. I use the lucas method, oxy blast, hygrozyme, and bud candy. here are some pics at one month from seed till now.

right now my temp is at 86 and I switched from my MH to my HPS bulbs since they are starting to show signs of flowering.

your plants look way healthy, keep up the good work my friend.

Well my ventilation isn't all that great. That is why, but your plants look healthy as well and I like the setup you got there. Nice job, and thanks man.

If it was then, I really have almost no clue what strains they are haha. They are both bag seeds. Someone said they could be a type of kush. I don't know for sure. The bigger plant already is smelling up the whole room. When I touch the leaves and smell my fingers afterwards I can smell a sweet and yet sour smell. It smells like a lime and grapefruit mix. The other has no smell yet. But I hope they both turn out to yield some dank buds.

I have several strains; tangerine dream, acapulco gold, great white shark, lemon skunk, black jack, grape god, big band, big bud, and ladyburn 1974. I wanted to start this first fun out with two auto flowers so I can the hang of working with hydro, which I have its not to difficult you just have to be around pretty much daily to check on them. I think my next run will be tangerine dream (G-13 x Nevilles Hase X G-13) should be killer.

wow, if your ladies are smelling like that already im sure it will be dank as hell, usually they don't put off that smell until they flower, you look like you have about 4 more weeks of veg depending on how much room you have. you can force them into bloom any time though. I would recommend topping them that way you get a bushy plant with several colas instead of one main one.

hahaha nah i didn't run around telling people to smell my fingers. Mdjenks them are some nice strains you got there. Ak48 is one of the best I have ever smoked and it smells like pine sol when you get done with drying and curing. I thought about forcing my bigger plant to bloom soon, but I realized the sooner the less bud I will end up with. I thought about topping because I want my plant to get bushy and I only have about 4 feet max in my grow box for it to grow. So I might go about some other methods to make it bushy. Like topping and super cropping. Oh and yeah I think I have about 3-4 weeks left of veg. It has been 3 weeks today since I started growing the bigger plant.

I topped my bigger lady 6 times and she is a bushy bitch for sure and growing like crazy, a 1/2 inch to an inch a day.
