I couldnt help but laugh when I saw the pics of your plants all tied up! LOL I'm sure there is a good reason but at first glance I thought they were trying to escape. Very nice setup btw.

Yeah they aren't quite a beautiful all tied down but yes there is a reason. It keeps them from growing to tall and in exposes the lower branches to more light. It also causes the plant to redistribute hormones to the lower branches causing them to grow larger buds than they would have if left standing up.:blsmoke:

Yo where did you get that indoor temp thing thats digital looks sweet. Also nice setup and did you germinate them and stick them directly under light?

The temp and humidity gauge comes from Wal-Mart for $10. I germinated them in paper towels. Once they sprouted I put them in the grow box with the lights off until the broke through the dirt. They have been under 24 hours of light since then. Thanks for stopping by.:blsmoke:

I really want to do this but it seems my dreams may die. I planned on putting it in my closet, but my brother is known for having huge parties and if cops were to bust one, they're surely search the house and find it -- so bad idea. :(

Hopefully I can do it at my other house :)

Hey maybe i missed it but i was wondering what u did so that the top and bottom are sealed shut so that any light or odor dosnt slip out?
Also for evryone here do you think its better to have a passive intake and fan exhaust or fan intake and passive exhaust?
Thanks

I put weather stripping along the edge of the top tub so it seals when it's closed. I tried turning the fan around to blow in and the temperature got to near 90 so I turned it back to blowing out. I think one blowing in and one blowing out would be best.

Do you think this set up would work with 2 computer fans with one blowing air in and the other blowing air out, instead of one computer fan like you have and another inside?

Went shopping today, and I was wondering where you got your 3 socket light fixtures? Home Depot didn't have any that were as small and square as yours.

Here are updated pics of the ladies. I gave plant B & C 1/4 strength all purpose plant food. By the pics you can see they probably didn't need it. A couple of the leaves have nute burn. Plant A was looking great until this morning. One leave has grayish colored spots on it. I am not sure what this could be from since A received no nutes. Also plant B & C have really spiny new growth. Is this normal? What do you guys think? I don't think they are looking as good as they have been. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks:blsmoke:
