Hey closet looking good man.. Wanna eat ur fan leaves haha..Was curious as the water level in ur tub right now. Also, I found my plants like it best with just an indirect breeze or wind blowing over them..If u can get the fan blowing up onto the lights and over the tops slightly..Nice root action bro..
Think u could be safe at least 1-2 inches below the bottom of the cups now.. Dont wanna over water.
Also, I top just above the 6th node when I top. In ur setup tho..I wouldnt suggest it.
Looks like u may end up having to lollipop some of them down to make room in that tub. Nothing wrong with growing XMAS tree tops bro.
I top my plants to achieve bushiness and they all get there own 5 gallon bucket when i do.See what im saying?
Anyway. Looking good bro.
Hope that helps.

thanks.when i changed the res i filled it just to the bottom of th cups. the 2 smaller plants didn't have the roots of the others. i will let the level drop some before adding any water. once i sex them i am going to move to a larger dwc. 10 gal for 2 plants. my flower room is large enough for 4 nice size plants.

I'm not sure on the topping (never done it myself)... but I think before I was planning to do it at 1o-12".. then cut the top off back to about 6" (use the 'top' for clone) and flower back at 10-12"... I'd wait for other to adivse though :-/
But dayyyy-uuummm those are really good for two weeks (at least compared to mine at two weeks LOL) just the CFLs???

be glad you cannabisseeds.com w.w. didnt make it,i bought some about a year ago and out of 60 seeds i got 8 females,they were 100% sativa and were very tall, out grew the space, and took over 16 weeks to mature and got mediocure buds.i harvested two afgahni plants in the same time.
it dont pay to try and save a few bucks on seeds. try high grade seeds,he has awsome genetics for a fair price.his white widow is one of the better widows out there.
ive got his electric fruit punch,which is a blue berrie strain that is incredable. check it out.

thanks for the info. steve long finally answered one of my emails. he said he would take note, and they are just for souvenirs.
i am glad these free seeds look so good. 
about 1". they drink more than a quart of water a day. the res only holds 1 1/2 gal so i have to watch the water level and the ph.

it kicks ass
i will post some picks tomorrow. going to move them to bigger res, over the weekend. i already cuy my holes for 5" pots. might try to rig it so i can keep them in the 3" solo cup. they have so many roots i think it might hurt the root mass. i was told just leave them in the cup and put all into the 5"pot. anybody ever try that?
