looking good bro cant wait to see em grow lol

are you staring lst on that one plant with the red tie?
if so id undo that for a lil like 3rd node or so and let a fan blow em alil so that stem will thicken up less of a chance of breaking it

Yeah i got about 2 weeks im just prepin myself ;) I start VEG MODE tomorrow. 18/6. Also i decided to cut out the inline fan and carbon filter. im going to try some of this GEL for smell, and just order my light tomorrow. If things go the way i plan i am hoping for at least 5 females (i have 10 total, 11 but i dont think one of the babies is gunna make it). also my girl wants to keep a male and she said we could use her closet. so im gunna set up the CFLS in there. its in another room in a closet so it should be ok. I also heard, if you let it go 24hrs of dark before flowering it speeds up the process, you should give it a try. Ill post some pics when i get the light installed. ;) (and ill keep a close eye on my ladies getting all hairy , heheh) WISH MY BABYS LUCK

I went to walmart, and got the sweetest fan. Its a Blower fan by Stanley. It rotates 360 degrees if i need be, but it shoots air perfectly under my door. The i took my old fan and put it on the otherside of the door to shoot it up when it enters. (its great) Then i will have a small fan on the HPS. With all that wind, it also makes my plants move just enough to help stiffen there stems. I also said I un-did all of the LST. I felt like i was hurting my babies :) When this HPS goes in i really expect these ladies to take off.

lol u wasnt hurtin em haha i did the same thing when i first tried it like u look at it all tied down and your oh shit im sorry and untie the beast lol in flower your gonna be damn i shoulda left it haha but oh well first grows are good to jus watch the plant go

and yeah the hps is gonna make the difference then put the cfls round the bottom youll get lots of growth that way, they grow slow well kinda compared to in flower its like the drank some toxic waste and become the hulk lol
