From experience, leaving that door open will smell up your whole house. If you have an ac that is venting outside, it will vent the smell outside which is no good! You may not even notice that your house smells, but believe me when I say that others will notice. If possible, buy a portable ac...

Flowering Day 1 Plants are around 6" tall. Nutrient ppm is at 540 following the flowering week one schedule from BCNL. Running the box from 5pm to 5am.

I'd pick an indica for these boxes. You ideally want something short and bushy, not tall and lanky like a sativa. I've been growing Northern Lights and I am quite happy with the strain. I haven't tried topping yet. Just trying to master the basic process before experimenting.

Day 20 This grow is about 3 days ahead of where it was this time last grow in terms of vertical growth and root growth. Everything looks bushy and healthy, and I might have a nice even canopy this time around. On my last grow, I started flowering on day 32 from seed when the tallest plant was...

I'm not going to be too much help for you because I've only grown from seed. My advice would be to give your clones some amount of time to adjust to the lights. Start with the CFL and then add one 400 Watt MH light. If they are responding well, add the other 400 Watt. I keep my ppm light in...

It's a really good idea that I've been contemplating. I may do 6pm to 6am just so I have a few extra hours to work on things in the evening.

No, I'm a little wary of experimenting on my second grow. Maybe next time. What has been your experience with LSTing in this box?

Interesting modification. I'd like to see how this turns out.

I started my co2 right after the first week, but had to shut it off for a while because of how fast everything was growing. The BCNL manual says to hold off until after the second week. My advice would be to follow the BCNL guideline. The plants will grow like crazy in the first 3-4 weeks of...

Dude, plants and roots look great from what I can tell. Don't worry about roots browning a little. It's usually just the nutes. I wouldn't veg longer than Monday. An overgrown box is the worst!

Day 18 On my last grow right around this time I started having problems with light green splotches forming on the leaves, starting in the middle bottom of the new growth and working its way out. As it grew, the leaf color became even more of a neon green. My total ppm was around 580 at that...

Why did my Northern Light strain (from this journal) get so out of control? I switched them over when they were mostly under 14" and they grew well into the light. What do you think the deal was?

Day 16 I am currently feeding at levels under week two strength. This strain doesn't seem to need the amount of nutes that other growers are feeding their plants. In fact, I started to get nute burn on my last grow when my ppm was at 580 on day 18 from seed. I was told from someone else (a...

Funny, I actually never filtered the piranha or turantula during my entire first grow and never had a problem! Maybe I should look into that though. Hope I'm not messing up my pump! On my first journal, I had some problems about 3 weeks into veg with some neon green colors forming on my...

My humidity is at about 35-40% right now in Florida. During the summer without proper ventilation, my box was 80+%. Definitely try to keep the humidity under 50%. It's less of a worry in the beginning though. You don't want bud rot once those buds start forming and getting thick. BTW, how...

I really like Sensizym, but don't use it with h2o2. I also used Turantula powder and Piranha powder from Advanced Nutrients. With those three products, I never had a problem with disease or rot on my first grow. Start with Sensizym though if you are on a budget. If you go to ebay, you can find...

Day 14 As you can see, I modified the box slightly to accomodate another airline that feeds two new airstones. I got the idea from Smokedup12. What you can't see is the extra hole I drilled in the front to feed into the res. I also just kicked on one of the 400 Watt mh lights. Tomorrow I'll...

I'm going to be out in LA. You in that area? I added some airstones (about to post more pics), but I'm not real happy with the ones I just bought. They aren't as long as the others so it's harder to get coverage under two pots. I think I'll add some water like you suggested.

This isn't a scientific answer, but I found that most of these little problems work themselves out. Just double check that your ph is in line and that you aren't over or under feeding/nuting. Other than that, there isn't much you can do anyway.

Right on bro, thanks for checking out my grow. Northern Lights is a good strain. I'll start experimenting with other grows once I get this whole process down. Still learning...
