Tonight I used pipe cleaners to tie down a few branches on the plants, so far so good.

I also purchased a piece of plexiglass from the hardware store. I have adjusted it between the tops of the plants and the light. This has dropped my temps a ton! I was reading around RIU about plexiglass and and whether there would be loss of lumens. I saw quite a few experienced growers have done this before. (or something similar to it).
The fans are between the plexiglass and light. Instead of keeping the light roughly 18" away from the plants, I am now able to keep the light less than 10" from the tops of the plants. My temperatures are now at 73-74F.

I look forward to seeing if I can chop one of the ladies right around 420, but I have a feeling that they are going to need more time than that.

looks good. just add a two 4 foot fluorescent light with two bulbs each, one on each side of the tent and you should be good to go. rotate the buckets every day a quarter/half turn.

Well folks, here are the pictures I said I would put up.

Update: plants are looking and smelling dank. :bigjoint: The temperature is in the mid 70's.
I am becoming more comfortable every day with the plants.
How to handle them, training and resistance, watering cycle. I feel like I have learning the nuances of growing.

feel free to post any comments. I would like to hear any feedback or suggestions, props, or questions.

thanks bros:leaf:

u foliar feeding ? when u gonna pull them ?
umm no I dont add anything to the leaves...

I used a tiny bit of grow big, tiny bit of big bloom, and some tiger bloom.

When am I gonna pull them? chop them down and harvest em' is what I think your asking.

I will chop em down 1 at a time, I want to harvest one of the snow whites earlier with cloudier trichomes. I might even let the other two plants sit in the dark for a day or 2 or 3 to fatten up the buds. :bigjoint:

Very nice grow! I'm using CFL only on mine for my first attempt and so far it's going good. I've burnt a couple leaves by not getting in there to move the lights quick enough after they come back on. Other than that they look good and can't wait until they really get flowering.

hey man amzing grow, seriously +rep just wondering what kind of schedule you have been using the big bloom because the bottle and website instructions are completely different. So how much are you adding and how often do you apply? thanks in advance.

No prob you earned it. Okay I thought I'd ask you got some good results. I don't use the tiger bloom I'm using their peace of mind organic dry mix fruit and flower has the same npk value as the tiger bloom. I used it soley with my last crop under my 250 mh and am usining it in conjunction this time again as recommended on the label.
