Great job on the new purchases!! Do you think the lumes will be adequate enough for flowering?

This is my set up as of right now::

3-6500k's / 2-2700k's / 1-70w HPS and 1 long florescent tube for bottom lighting

Very impressive. You make me want to try hydro. ....someday. The benefits and the difference is apparent. Yours are more like bushes. Mine are still like roadside weeds. You almost expect a dandylion flower to sprout out of it.

It's truly amazing how a single plant can be so awesome!

She has the darkest, most impressive leaves. I picture her as an exotic European woman, with olive skin and dark, cascading hair. I'm waiting for her to flirtatiously flip one of her leaves over a shoulder or something. She'd have a dark husky voice, with some kind of French or Portuguese accent....

Minnie4 has a beautiful main bud forming. Beautiful, I tell ya! It's starting to look sugar coated and full. Very promising.

How many times do you think you look at the girls a day? It looks like you might actually check on them more than I do~!

I check about 6 or 7 times a day. Perverse.

I'm about 3 times a day right now. When I wasn't working, it was more like 7 or 8.

This having to go to work every day thing is really putting a damper on my grow activities.

Minnie's really filling up with all kinds of white hairs. She's getting lots and lots of trichs, too. She's the most "sugar coated" of them all.

She's the tallest. She almost belongs on a porch somewhere, near tiki lights and palm trees. Very green, and just now starting to show signs of stopping w/ new fan leaves and focusing on bud growth.

She looks all short and stubby with her top stem gone, but the bottom seems healthy. It's hard to tell her and Lisa apart. Has a lot of minibuds starting.
