The AK-48's have bounced back nicely from topping and transplanting. I have an indica pheno that is growing alot faster than the rest. There is also one Sat pheno that is a close runner-up. I can't wait to take clones from these babies So I can gas up my flying saucer.......:joint:

Ok ,well I've also transplanted my KF and EM seedlings into party cups and labeled them blue for EM and Orange for KF. They're outgrowing the bagseed that sprouted along side them. Much like the AK's which is always good. But, the KF are growing alil faster in general. With one KF shooting past all the rest.

Im hooked. I'm looking forward to getting my setup similar to this one.
Yea it was easy. I got a friend with the tools and carpenter skills and told them i needed a strong bookcase/entertainment stand built (1 shelf) and gave them the dimensions i wanted. I told him I'd paint it later and smoked a few bowls for payment.( I helped!) Then I went back to the store to buy another sheet of wood for the front. I cut out squares for doors and bought latches, hinges, and locks. All i had to do from there is outfit it for a grow box. about 4-6 hrs worth of labor and days of research.........

Hey wandering grow, did u ever get the temp problem fixed in your grow? I think my temps have rose since adding my extra lights too. The misses complained about the heat today but I couldn't bear to shut my babies up in all that heat, so i left the door to the room the cab is in open all day......Any ideas?!? I'm thinking of getting a bigger exhaust fan.....

not quite yet but i havent gotten the exhaust blower. right now i'm maintaining around 85 at peak usualy lower but i was in the closet alot today making final adjustments to the new lights and their positions. curently i just open my door right at lights on and close it right before lights out and i put a window fan on the ground blowing in and two fans inside pushing upper air out works decently but its still too high for my comfort. let me know if you figure something out and as soon as i do ill let you know what works for me.

Well, I finally lined the entire cab with mylar even the floors.(I should've did it first because it was hell.) i also made a makeshift reflector outta cardboard and painted it white to redirect some of the wasted light downward. I think the girls will love me for it tho..............

Well I just gave the seedlings their first (of 4 days) diluted foliar feeding of fish emulsion last nite,(Like Jorge Cervantes suggest to increase F/M ratio) and I'll water them with a 1tsp/gallon diluted feeding as welll. I could see a difference already this morning!!!:weed:

Sorry , my math was off a bit. They sprouted 8/1/10 So duh! today is day 26. I wasn't a math scholar lol(how hard was that). Anyway here they are responding well to the LST. Now its just a matter of time before I can take clones from the side shoots that are really waking up now. The second pis is of the bagseed that were germed along side the AK's. They have been on12/12 for about 4-5 days and are just catching back up with the AK's due to the flowering stretch. The Ak's still have more nodes even though they were topped/fimmed and are still in veg!!!!

OK!!!! So I have finally had some success cloning. I started with an assortment of bagseed.(b/c they accidentally got mixed up):wall: 1 or 2 were from a bag of supposed ''kush''. Anyway I believe this may be one of those possibly.(kush=indica=short) I've grown fond of this plant due to how short and dense it grows. I It has been topped and LSt'ed but didn't respond like the others. I've decided to call it ''Leprechaun Kush''.:) I hope the names not taken. If not now it is. It's about 10 days into flowering..
