Oh sweet, they're looking good!
Just the back right one, has that leaf with the edges curled up? I've seen on the forums that's a sign for something starting there, just seems the cause hasn't stuck in my head o_O lol
I noticed that mate I think it's heat as this one is closest to the heater. Might move her and see if anything changes

Gave her a bit of a trim and tried to even the canopy out a bit better. It's not perfect but tis my first time SCROG'in! View attachment 3587070 View attachment 3587071 View attachment 3587072
Ya, I get the feeling we may have an idea of "even canopy" in our minds that doesn't correspond to reality lol
I mean, they're plants, not a carpentry project ffs! -- so "even" may just mean exactly what we're seeing there :mrgreen: -- taller buds more or less the same height plus a few shorter ones -- and those will grow taller, if your plant does anything like mine are doing!

I really love how they're straining against the net haha -- mine have put so much pressure on the screen I'll def want to reinforce one of the screen frame's sides before the next go!

Your girls look ace, I'm hoping thats how mine looks in a couple of weeks time!
I'm going to build a proper wooden screen like yours next time, this elastic one isn't much good, the spacings are too big and it doesnt fill the tent. The only benefit of it was being able to stretch it today so I could pull the taller shoots across into another square!

Sorry forgot to fully answer your question. No they're still under the CFL. I will put under MH when I return from England next weekind. Then I will see a growth spurt I recon
What CFL do you use for veg, Is it a 250w envirolite? And are you not using the HPS for flower?

Ah I thought you needed the stretchy net on account of the DWC -- you have to access it, don't you? (sorry I know nothing about maintianing DWC lol)

Might give it a go one day
Well half of my lighting is CFL (200W CFL + 150W HPS on 0.5m² ) -- while you can't compare Dawn and Dusk (theyre just too different as plants), there are parts of Dawn growing under the CFL (which is mostly over Dusk) - and they're doing quite as well as the buds on the HPS side of the closet.
So they're ok, thought here is something about them I don't like, but can't really put my finger on it :bigjoint:

Good to hear Calli. I see a lot of people do flower on CFL with excellent results. I have always just used a MH so I stick with it. I have a good sized space and a 400 watt covers it perfectly
