I moved my cfl lights up a couple inches because I burned a few of them by not keeping a close enough eye on them. Plus, after inspection I realized I need sidelighting. The problem with cfls is the leaves on top block the light to the leaves or flowers on the rest of the plant.

Well just to get everyone up to speed on my grow rooms and maybe ask a question in the process. Running a DR120 (4X4X6.5) tent...1000W MH/HPS combo....Hydrofarm 400 CFM 6" fan. Growing 14 babies that are just now 2 weeks old in here. Gonna be running the plants CCOB style so i can keep the canopy even on all 14. So i just bought a carbon filter as the ladies are starting to get a scent to them...but im still unsure if the carbon filter is big enough. I actually think my fan might be too strong for the filter. Was going to get the can 50 filter but that thing weighs 80 lbs and seems like wayyyyy too much. Bought a can 9000 instead since it will actually fit in my tent. Question is since its rated at like 150CFM and my fan is rated at 400 CFM will that cause issues?

yes they need to match, or the fan has to be less. Basically it wont be exposed to the carbon enough so it wont filter (absorb I believe) the odor.

ok, I turned off both my 200 watt cfls in the veg room, cuz the plants are outgrowing the party cups (or did already) and I want to slow growth.
I watered my 1 week old (1.5 w maybe) with super thrive ( I think it was called, hormones) and 25%veg nutes 50% bloom nutes.
I also jarred one plant, rotated and checked on the otehr drying 2. One smells like skittles :)

Just got done feeding them molasses for the first time and sprayed them down with monterey garden spray (spinosad) for the third time since I found thrips last week. Had to do all this while lights were off (usin my green led) too because im gna be busy tonight.

Oh yeah and last night I finally transfered my couple week old clones that im puttin straight into flower into bigger pots. The roots on the blackberry og swallowed up the whole cup. There was like more roots on then soil...holy shit!
