1st time~ closet grow

Hi all
first post to this site. wanted to share my little closet grow with you and maybe gain some feedback. im growing in my bedroom closet that is 3.5 feet wide, 1.5 feet deep and 6ish ft tall. I open the door on and off through the day, fanning the plants for ventiliation. the closet doesnt seal so there is always some air flow. i live in the northeast so heat and humidity are not a big issue. im currently 30 days into flowering. im not sure of the exact strain, but they were feminized seeds that i believe have good genetics. during veg i used 2 60watt CFLS and 2 26 blue spec CFLS. I am using Happy Frog organic soil and fox farm nutrients Grow Big, Big Bloom and Tiger Bloom. I was not meticulous with the nutes schedule at first but am learning as I go! I grew them a bit bigger than I had planned on but began flowering after about 6 weeks of veg. After a couple weeks on 12/12 I add a 126w LED red spectrum light. After 2 more weeks I removed the 26 blue CFLS and added another 126w LED red spec.

I have 2 plants. I know they're not perfect, but I am pretty satisfied with the bud growth and resin forming.
So here are a few pics from diff stages, last pics are most recent.
I think I have about 3-4 weeks till harvest?

Hi mate, don't know much about led's but for less watts u could stick a 250w hps in there, more lumens than led's I think. Good luck with ur grow.

Alot will happen in 3 or 4 weeks. Looks good.
 
thanks for the response guys! just wondered if they looked as beautiful to you all. my partner and i have a 400w hps and i think we're going to use that on the next cycle. we are sprouting some new ones this week and going to veg them with CFL while the ladies finish and then transplant them into the closet. i think we're going to do hps next time, especially since it will be cooler weather and over-heating will be much less of issue! :)

That's how it goes. With every grow behind you you'll use different techniques, new ideas. That's what makes growing so cool. IMHO.
