is that an hp laptop if soo it looks just like mine
HP Pavilion dv4000 :leaf:

I let the plants suck down nearly ALL the water in the res to the point they started getting droopy.

i just poured a stronger gallon dose of veggie formula somewhere near about 1100-1300ppm, well see if that perks em up over night:fire:

any comments on my cloning? also when should i be able to SEX my plants?????

they are currently week 3 in veg (just started new week today) and lights are on 18/6 (ON=7am-1am) they sprouted around december 5th i beleive, check out the whole thread bro, these two have barely survived to make it to this point! Also i just found out i should be able to sex them by week 4-5 of veg or by a week or two as soon as its in flower, but im not gonna flower them till i get a better light...

i think it might be the co2 bottles, so i took them out and im gonna see if there is any improvement tomorrow morning, its def not heat though becuz i got a circulating fan on the plants with an exhale in the top left of the box, air temp - 68-71 F water temp - 64 F

it may be possible to sex them now, ive found that fiming or topping the plant will make them sex soon after (mine all did at a little over 3 weeks 18/6)

i put a buncha medena (sp?) and purp seeds in a shot glass of water tonight, gonna paper towel germ them tomorrow and hopefully get a few sprouts i can put directly into flower same time as the two vegging right now.

UPDATE, the plants leaves are perking back up nicely to the new rez change from last night (over nute'd) and they are starting to get a stronger scent by the day! :P god i just hope they are females, im afraid that with my luck both with be male....

hey what kind of light should i aim for my flowering period? i saw a couple of 70w MH bulbs at home depot today... as you can see, i dont have a lot of space to work with, so a big ass light would produce more problems than successes, any ideas guys???
