Wish somebody would post pics of a plant when it is starting to flower. Is it good or bad to pinch some big leafs once in a while?

this is first day of flowering lol and no do not pinch off any leaves ..

ran into problem already :(

my fans that i got ( 12v dc) are not cooling off the box now that i got an extra 3 lights i opened it up and a rush of heat hit me in the face so i gotta go to the store today get some 24 v fans i believe .. yall think that would work good???

That should work. Lol I just got a little 6" fan and duct taped some ventilation hose on there and ran it in my tent, seems to be workin(if your trying to move more air). Do you have an intake, and an exhaust?

yes i have intake and exhaust 12v intake 12 v exhaust used to only have 3 cfls now i have 6 and i can tell a big difference in heat in there ... think since winters almost here i might just put the grow box in my garage so that the intake will be taking in cold air :)

Just got a jug of Tiger Bloom from Fox Farm. It says to add1/2 cup per gal for first feeding. Is this correct?

its correct to them.... only do 1/4 strength for first week ... then do half for a week ... then go full strength.. is what everyone says...

i personally do 1/3 strength .. for like a week then go full strength
