Ok.. So i built my light and tube last night.

The most lame part is I took the plants out and set them in the dark closet at like 11:30am or so yesterday... Long story short, I decided half way through what I better 12/12 was... so Its going to be 5pm-5am... So.... the SHIT part is that they will have been in complete darkness for like 30 hours by the time they get light.... I swear I read having them in 36 hrs darkness was good, but last night I looked that up and people were saying it could cause stress... Fuckit.. I cant do shit about it. I have to have them from 5-5... It's better for the plants and for myself to take care of them.

Another 2.5hrs to go. At this point it doesnt really matter....

ANYWAYS.. Here are some random shots of the new tube.

Oh and since there were no other guesses on who the confirmed female is.. I will tell you!

It was........












#3!!!!!

The cooltube looks great! How is it working out for ya so far?

I wont be using it on the plants themselves until 5pm.. Which is 30 mins from now.

Last night I was testing temps using the light/cooltube but no exhaustfan or fan blowing in the box.. The temps I think reached 84... They may settle around 86 i suppose. I just cant wait to put the plants under the lights!

They will thank you for it with sweet stinky buds.

hows the filter working out? my whole place stank when i walked in the front door after a weekend away. I need some odor control quick - does your rig work?

I dont know yet!! lol my plants have been in the closet all yesterday and today... They dont smell yet so I dont know if the filter works!! haha Im sorrrry!!

I really wish I could say that they love the lights and the filter works, but I just dont know anything yet! Trust me.. Im dying. Im on the edge of my bed, laptop on my lap, checking my phone every few mins.... See watch... 17.5 mins remain!

The box is totally empty and sitting about 5 feet in front of me

Wow! I am astounded at all the progress you've made!!! And a girl! Congrats! That could be somehting that will convert you into the grower that LST's religiously after a famously successful first trial! The box is becoming more and more genius by the day and you still have a plant that has yet to show!

Now, I don't mean this in a bad way but, I hope that your other one is a male. That way you can enjoy breeding and it will almost guarantee that you will continue growing these along with those veggies!

Those plants really know how to perk up!!!

Post post post!!!!!!! I cant take it anymore!!!

we all wait with bated breath. no smell, eh? Seed selection is everything. ww must not be stinky. My god, my kush is crazy. My friend came over yesterday and started laughing even though my grow is in the basement. any preflowers at all on charlotte? She looks like a goddess.

Its so fucking beautiful! I will update now! just give me a min to type up the update and take pics!!!!!!!

Can't wait to see it, what do you think of this, Inductor 6 In. In-Line Duct Booster Fan - DB206 at The Home Depot, to exhaust my closet into the attic?

OKAY GUYS! We're back in session!

I busted the babies out of the closet and shoved the growbox back into the closet as quick as I could... Organized shit, put the ladies in... Then, I was like, "Shit, I need to boost them up!" so... I made a shelf and now they are looking MARVELOUS!

So, i see no extra signs of femaleness on #3.. It's still just that one V.

No signs of sex on Charlotte. Although, she does have very prominent lumps where her branches meet the stem. These are not balls, it's not like that.. Just looks like they were hot glued onto the stem. Kinda odd..

#3 looked GREAT coming out of the closet. Leaves raised up... just being HAWT!... She has no real noticeable scent.. I sniffed her a bunch and I get a slight slight weed smell.

Charlotte on the other hand has a scent. She smells like shit.. and I dont mean that to be rude. She really smells like dog shit. Like when you are driving in your car and youre like *sniff smiff*.. wtf?.. and then find dog shit on your shoes... Im going to have my girl smell them when she gets home... Hopefully she will come up with a better comparison for me to explain it for you guys.

#3 looks much bigger.. Like, she seems to have grown a lot in the last 30 hours.

Both pots have numerous roots poking out. They really want to leave the pots! LOL WTF?! Im going to end up with 30 gallon drums for pots at the end of this venture!

Hackel - You say you want it to be male. Im not necessarily hoping for male, but if it is, I wouldnt complain at all. Pollenating sounds like a great experience, plus it would buy some room for a 5gal pot for #3.. But like I said... Either way is great IMO!

Drybie - Nothin on Charlotte yet. Wanna place your bet?? lol. I have read that WW has a strong scent. Maybe it just comes strong during flowering. AHHH!!!! IM IN FLOWERING GUYS!!! CAN YOU BELIEVE IT?!

OGDANTON - Hi! I didn't know you were a viewer!!!! HERES YOUR POST!!!

BXKE - I use that same fan, only the 4" version for mine!!! I have 2.. one for the exhaust and one for the cooltube!

The brightness caused my camera to create lines... its crazy.





CHARLOTTE!!!


My gender confirmed beauty #3!


A booster for my kids!




The ballast


Lookin down on 'em


Shut the door most of the way and peeked the camera lens in there

Does your ballast not get hot sitting on that carpet?

Iunno.. its warm on some areas but not hot.. Should I put it on something? Like a chunk of wood?

I just worry about the carpet catching fire, but if it is working why mess with it right?

You may want to put it on a concrete block or some type of metal... if it does catch fire.... You hear about this typ of stuff ... lol



Whatup Man, the plants are looking great since i last came about... lol... I see the everything is looking good for you with the new soil... remember... that the soil will be full of nutrients for about 4 weeks... after that ...depending on watering styles and such... youll need to either .. Transplant to give new nutes... (looks like your space is limited...but 2 5 gallons would fit in there.... Dont think youll really need 5 gallons for such short plants though.. Although you are just starting to flower... Double the growth..) or Start adding nutes in your water mix . I personally just transplant when i flower.... then at the last 3 - 4 weeks i add some overdrive or cha ching stuff... its for hydro but it works great if you can get the ppm dosage in your water right...

Anyway... they look great... Can you drop the light and raise it or are you just going to be moving the plants with books or somethin...lol...

Good luck bro...
