Thanks Guys! They are about 7 inches tall right now, and I was wondering when I should switch to 12-12?
I was planning to switch in about 5 more days..

Is height really a problem for you?

If not, you should leave them veg some more!!
I don't know what the yield would be from these!

Cheers!!

No, height isn't a problem. I'm just anxious i guess.. I don't know how people get so lucky to get a female when growing from bag seed.
My first grow was a guy, so i went ahead and flowered him out until he popped and I got some pollen samples stored.
My second grow I decided, "Hey! I will plant 2 this time! and both those turned out male.
This is my third grow, hopefully i have some luck this time! I'll get me a nice mother to cut clones from!

Say I wanted to show off a new PC case I've been working on! Should I start a new thread, or would it be okay here?

First your containers are small, second they are clear (Cannabis roots hate light), IMHO you really need to re-pot those and veg a while before you initiate flowering.
I would give them a minimum of a 2 gallon pot apiece with lots of pearlite.

Welcome to RIU. :cool:

Thanks for the heads up. I was actually planning on re-potting before I switched to flower.
I was originally going to use solo cups to start off but something happened to them all, so I started chopping up bottles one night.
Also I was wondering. From what I know Miracle Grow products are like voodoo to growers. Some people are absolutely against it, and the growers who use it say it works just as well as other fertilizers.
I'm trying to work with what I got locally, there are no headshops or hydrostores within at least 100 miles of here.

Germ'ing some new seeds! Got them from a friend of mine who's a fellow grower. He said it is a pretty good strain.
I've noticed people aren't very big on names around here.

I've only grew in a case twice and once normally before I moved.
I still live at home so I was working with what I had without drawing suspicion.
Honestly, I'm happy I got anything. It just feels rewarding to finish something.

If you were to remove all of those innards you'd end up with a much roomier space. Some mylar or white paint inside would make better use of your light. I reckon you'd at least double your yield just by doing a couple of things more efficiently. That being said, you can only work with what you have and if you're happy with the result then cool :D

There's no easy way of removing the internal structures in the old or the new case as they are riveted in, but... I'm taking a Dremel to the driver racks in the Blossom tomorrow which will almost double my space.
I'm going to pick up a metal cutting blade for it tomarrow.

If you have a drill and a very thin metal drillbit you can get those rivets out. Just drill right in the middle of the flat side of the rivet (there's usually a little indentation in the middle - just aim for that). There's videos on YouTube showing how it's done. It's a bit of a pain in the ass, though, but pretty satisfying how the drill goes through the rivets like butter :D

^^^What this guy said^^^ You need to get all the room you can in a pc case and the rivets are are an easy job with a drill bit.
