bushy fsho man. nice grow. i'd be a good idea to take clones and start flowering cuz it'll get much taller.

well they started off with seeding soil and distilled water from seed.one is bubble gum from nivana and one from some kind of bag weed. i used 4 20watt fluorescent natural sunshine lights and always keeped them about 1 inch above the plants for 3 weeks and had a little trouble with heat when i switch to the H.P.S. light (only 150W) for a week but just started useing nutes from a hydro kit i bought. the plants are in 2 litter bottles and has co2 from suger and yeast and water. i'm already trying to clone these plants to see if they are really ladies. the clones i took from them are only two days old. they are still green useing grodan blocks and b-1 root grow.they are under the H.P.S. light also for now.thanks for looking

why are u saying u tok the clones to see if they are fem?
just start the 12/12 cycle for the big plant and find out by time the clones grow the big plant will be way bigger besides it will be much faster to flower the big one cuase if the big one is a male then all the clones u took will be a male too
and u should put the clones under the floros hps might be too much for them right now
cfl's better for vegging and wont hurt the roots depending how u are cloning to get the roots.

if i flower the big plant i can't take clones from it if turns out to be female. if i keep the big plants in veg and the clones all turn out to be female then i can start my small S.O.G. from clones of the big plants.IF all the clones turn out to be males then i'm going to have to start all over again.

i think i'll just wait and see.but after looking at the pic it looks like i need more light in the top half of the grow box. what do you guys think for a small S.O.G.?? any ideas??

i just found at lowes a 150w hps street light assembley for $20.00 bucks. some kind of clearance sale. so all you people go and check out your hardware stores for some cheap lights.
