i need some help with the pruning, should i be pruning the leaves or the lower bud-sites? i want to increase the crown bud growth and the yield in general. i have been trimming the leaves and it seems to be okay.... im kinda down about my light, my 105w (actually 105w not just equivalent) cfl is daylight, my next box thing'll have a 200w red spectrum.... hopefully i'll be growing WW too :D

so heres some mooorrree pics. ive taken in a friends small plant. it is a very unstable hybrid and we are just going to flower it and see what happens. the other 3 are doing great they are sucking up the full strength nutes like crazy! a new local grow shop opened up and that should save me a lot of cash for my new grow box seeing as i wont have to order as much online. i still havent aquired another light socket for my warm white cfls so i still only have the one 27w warm white and the 105w daylight (blue), soooo im not expecting the greatest results. im used to smoking haze and cotton candy so im also afraid that this strain is going to do anything for me but i'll bhave the satisfaction of smoking homegrown!! :hump: i figured out how to add attachments on this site and have done it this time :blsmoke:

wow.... so they have grown quite a bit and my grow box plans are carrying out. instead of using a 200w flouro red, i decided to go with either a 150w or 250w hps for flowering, also i have changed the growing style to bubbleponics for both sides. both sides are 22 x 22 (inches) so i am a little unsure which wattage of light to go with. i think the 150 will suffice but the 250 will probably give me excellent results. heat and air ventilation shouldn't be a problem as the walls of it are black-out cloth and the top of it is going to be the same thing. on the copper pipes is going to be the mylar so that if needed i can just roll it up on the pipe. this unit will also be able to be taken appart and moved descretly, once i get my mom to sow a tent-bag like bag to store it in. i also picked up some DNF grow and bloom solutions so instead of just using water soluable ferts i'll use that. my White Widow seeds arrived from Nirvana today!!!! they all look like excellent and healthy seeds. pictures attached, and please give your opinion about my light situation.

Happy growing!:blsmoke:

Hey I just also picked up some xxx-420 seeds from OSB myself. Anything specific or out of the ordinary that I should watch for? I'm real excited to be a producer of a pure Indica plant. Please give me your advice from experiance of the xxx-420 strain.

Thanks,
Josh
