You have a decent plan here, if you want some info on assembly or setups with pics feel free to pm me.

At this point may I please ask, how long will the veg cycle last? Does that really block odor?

i dk if its a good idea but i have seen groweres cut away the brown parts of the leaves maybe it may help ( but i think its more for pests)

Is there enough drainage in the pot man? how many holes are at the bottom of the pot? maybe it could be that or maybe it could be from overwatering. I wouldn't cut any part of the plant at this stage.its too young.

They are 6-7 big holes on the bottom, i will make more today if its needed .

i think thats enough.overwatering is probably the issue. in that stage in my grow i use only a sprayer to water the plant, just to moist the surface of the soil. they dont need too much water yet. a few sprays on the surface is ok

Hi everyone Little update, i have made more holes of the pot and did not give the red dwarf water for 2 days. Now it looks better i think The pakistan ryder is growing good, its on picture 1 and 2. Red dwarf @ day 13 and paki ryder @ day 10 .

I am wondering, should i put the plants more space away from the bulbs so they can get some height or to stay like they are now, close to the bulbs ?

Its looking good so far man The closer they are to the lights without burning the better.

What rampage said. Do not lift your lights.The height they gain by staying away from the light is called stretching and it is not good as it reduces the final yield.Plus you are growing in a pc case which means that you want them short and bushy

Thats why i love af's, they are growing superfast compared to photoperiod plants and you can fit them anywhere.Perfect for stealthy grows.
