Hey man, looking pretty good so far except a few things you might want to consider.

Plants are stretching a bit much,.. how far away is your light? If you were to drop it, it would look like you would run into more heat issues.. I say more because it looks like some of your leaves were in taco 'states' the ones near the top will taco when they are heat stressed. This will slow your flowering growth.. Try to fix your temps, I consider 87 way too hot, stay near 68-75 if you can

Lol, thanks man. And well the cooltubes about 2-4 inches above the canopy, I don't really have anymore heat issues with the closet & if I lowered it anymore the buds would be touching the glass haha, honestly I like the room being in the mid 80's. it makes the temp drop alot for lights off and I hear that's important.

I'd say 87 is a bit too hot, but not a game killer. Def get a better product with lower temps, 85+ can make some fluffers. Grab a small reflective a/c hood; cool tubes, IMO, are far from cool. I've found that small hoods, like the Daystar AC 6 by Hydrofarm are by far the superior a/c hood. I'm normally a Hydrofarm hater since they rely entirely on Chinese products, but this is one of the BEST HOODS I've ever used!! I own (3) Yield Master II hoods 6", (2) XXXL Magnum Hoods 6", (1) Xtra Sun 6", and I had (1) Daystar AC 6" which I had to give back to my buddy, and had by far superior light penetration as well as a much larger and consistent light footprint! That is to say, the smallest hood I owned by far out preformed the largest and most popular hoods on the market (and the most expensive!!)

Big hoods are all a gimmick! If a consumer understood how light reflects, they'd understand that a giant hood is exactly what you do not want, and is ludicrous! The further the light has to travel from the bulb, to the reflector, the more lumens you use. The more reflective area you have, the less concisely directed your light will be. We had 8kw in one room once, and 7/8 were Big Foot hoods, which is like a XXXL knock off, but the small Daystar out preformed the large bigfoot, and had by far the best looking plants and buds under it.

A friend was going to give me a badass ac hood for the 400w, I just cant fit anything bigger in my closet. The way it's shaped this cooltube really fits perfectly

I'd say everything is looking right on time at about 2-3w worth of actually flowering bro!

And I'd suggest you gettin' up on LST or the top after then 2nd true node method, so you can keep your lasses a little more compact bro!
That's the only thing I see that I could possibly suggest as of now bro!

Lookin' pretty tits. Some sexy action coming up here in the next month! That's DNA LA Con right? It's really good shit! I had a real small and frail pheno cut from a clone, and even though she wasn't easy to please, she gave some extra amazing smoke!

Now in the thick of things again huh?!

And stacked just missed the cut for my next run, so def. keep that updated :lol:
Beech has been RAVING about that Sleestack strain, so maybe you'll get a bomb ass hash plant out of it!
Also, My White Widow is Seedsman rather than Dinafem, and goes ten weeks flowering, so you might have to sit tight while she finishes chunking up!

Hell yeah, loving this shit. And I was thinking of letting the top buds go to 11-12 weeks and the bottom nugs 14-15 while the vanilla and stacked are still vegging, after that though I'll be done for awhile

That white widow when you let it get right is a KILLER couch lock bro. And that's with me pulling as close to 100% possible w/ no amber!
If I would have let some of the trichs go to amber damn, I don't know WTF I'd be doing with my life lol.
So yeah, White Widow is some official tissue and it doesn't need any amber for couch lock. It's automatic lol.

Haha I'd like to be able to run it more, it gets too hot in there to have it on 18/6 but I'm about to switch rooms & have a completely new set up so that'll be a major priority.
