are these enough lights for my seedlings?? They are 2 27W Day bright, and on 19W day bright..I can put some fluorescents in there if I have to.
 
I took some better pics today. Here are the 2 plants that are almost done flowering..the 2 I just started flowering today, and the lil brainwreck seedlings I have.

I have some CFLs I wanna use for veggin..are they good? Should I just stick to HPS?

so here is a lil update on these babies..The 2 that have been flowering for a while look like they are almost finished. I am getting a scope tomorrow to check to trhichs. I just started flowering the 3 bushy ones. I pulled 3 clones off the plant I had pulled to the side. Its recovering nicely. I had given bushmaster to all 3 of them and they didnt freak out too bad. It was a small dose.. But the plants haven't grown vertical for a week.

Now on to my lil seedlings..They are flourishing nicely! I have them all in 2 gal pots, and I will start flowering them when they are 2 ft. All in all I havent had any problems yet..My first grow is going nice and smooth.

Thanks...I just went tho the hardware store and bought some CFLs as supplemental light. I dont think the 150 is gonna cut it..It's getting crowded..
 
Alright everyone here is a lil update on what I have going on..It is the 14th day of flowering form my lil White Rhino grilies. I think on Friday I'm gonna chop the afgooey ones.

I just ordered a ventilation fan and filter, so Im going to try and have the cabinet sealed up soon..I just need to figure out how I'm going to keep it cool.

The brainwreck are doing great as well. I havent decided whether I want them 2' or 3'

This plant I have pulled to the side keeps killing leaves. It turns them yellow, and then then brown. It kills each blade by itself tho..it's weird. There's some pics of the progress of everything..Hope I'm on the right track to dankness!

Well tomorrow afternoon at this time I wll be pulling the two skinny plants out of their soil. Im going to leave them in 24 hours of darkness. Hopefully I get a half oz. when they are done curing.
 
I chopped and hung my lil girlies the other day..They dried out in 3 days so I put them in a jar. I open the jar every once in a while and lose myself in the sweet dank smell. Looks like I'm going to get a half oz. here is the nuggies in the jar.

Thanks Capt.

So here's a lil update on 2 of my girls..The other on is sleeping..I have space issues.

They are doing wonderful for their 21st day into flower. I water them when they need it, and feed them a big bloom/tiger bloom cocktail every 4 days. It seems to be doing them justice.

Any comments on my tactics, or suggestions are appreciated.

these plants are looking fucking awsome
 
Thanks buddy^^^...I just started adding Purple Maxx to the mix..I added a 1/4 tsp in a 1 liter Fiji bottle..I figured that would be small enough. This stuff is experimental and there are no exact ratios on it yet. I figure I would use it sparingy so I dont burn my plants. I fed them bushmaster when I started 12/12, and they havent grown vertical at all..Purple maxx is supposed to increase resin development, and stack buds.
 
My econolight also finally came in today..Im going to take it apart and put it in on of my cabs so I have 300W pumping in there..I think Im going to invest some 600 watters tho. I've been doing a little more research, and I don't think 150W is going to give me the density I'm looking for. But if I get a 600W Im going to have to design a new grow space. I havent decided yet.
 
Im thinking about transplanting my 2 White Rhino plants into bigger pots..They are 3.5 weeks into flowering..Would this shock them too much?
 
do u mind showing some pics of your closet with the new ventilation because i'm thinkin of doin the same setup and i'm not tryin to have any heating problems...
