Ya Sunny's plant really jumped out of the ground. That's what I was hoping for too with My last grow.
Anyways now I know how to grow the Bubba and I just love this strain for smokingI have 4 in the ground. LOL
I see that You are growing Stardawg again. Any particular reason? I see that it has a longer flower time so, more sativa dom. What am I missing? Is this the stuff of My youth in Cal.?

I never got to finish the stardawg so I can't say what the finished product is like the doubledream in my main room is 75% blue dream 25% stardawg it's from purple city genetics the stardawg cut I have is from dark heart nursery via oaksterdam I got the stardawg today & im debating if I'm gonna run it or not it's large but rootbound &scraggly I have access to other younger more trainable clones I'm gonna sleep on it & make a decision tomorrow your babies are looking good I have a small 4 bulb t-5 I use for my babies I researched the 315 before I bought my led & you made a good decision as you're getting good performance for the money spent that might be my next light

Here I am sitting down .
Rebuilt My grow chamber.:

I rotated it in the room, lowered the floor height. V'ed the floor and drilled a 1 1/2" drain hole. Then I Made the walls shinny and new. installed the light and fan and..... Done.

The reason that I rotated it? So that I can put another grow chamber directly adjacent to it..

This is where the magic will happen.

that grow cabinet looks really nice & well thought out I'm wanting 2-3x4 rooms with a small clone/ veg area in the middle

It's always good to seal wood. You know plywood off-gasses formaldehyde, right? Especially in a hot environment and with fans blowing. Formaldehyde is a carcinogen. It just makes sense to take the extra time to put a seal coat or two on, but it's your grow and your body. I think there may be formaldehyde free plywood but it's probably the premium stuff and your is probably not that.

I read your fake news story Bob now...
This is the real news:

As well. Paint and varnish are made with formaldehyde resins and general plywood is not a concern as it does not have much glue compared to MDF or particle board.
Most of the formaldehyde is from the wood it's self.

Would you please not post here again. Unless it's constructive which so far it has not been.

Thank you.

Wow now back to reality,
If you harvest to soon you will get speedy bud that will give you the feeling of paranoia so you will go out of your way to be a menace If you understand how to overcome the waiting game you will be rewarded with the clarity to see through lies and challenge all thought.

What I mean to say is that you are not really helping with your comments that are outright wrong and I can see that you have no idea what I'm doing. LOL

Getting close to chop time my babies are doing good the sour diesel for my single plant grow now has roots down into the nutrients & I topped it I think I'm gonna buy either a 4 x 8 tent or 2-3 x 3 tents what I like about the 4 x 8 is I can heat it with a single electric heater in the winter but for now I've got at least 2 grows ahead of me in my present configuration my electric bill for the whole house including my 340w.led & about 100w.of t-5s was only $70.00 gas was another $30.00 my house is 1180 sq.ft. 3- bed ,2 bath in winter I heat with wood

I have been watching your grow closely LOL
We heat with wood also so, I had to warm up My basement for My last grow. It just seems like a waste of energy although the weed from it is great.
My idea is to vent My two grows into the same room area and back pressure that room with the carbon filter so that the smell does not get out into My house. That way the room will be heated by what ever room is on at the time. and there will be no drop offs in temp.and I will be able to control the temp. and humid. better in each of My grow boxs
The heat from this light is very low IMO but, it does have to be 20 inches away from the plant as it has a lot more radiant heat than the 400W HPS. It has no glass in front of the bulb. I vent it with 100CFM fan directly out of the grow box into the room.
Right now the basement is about 67F and the grow box only got up to 69F with no room fan at all over night.
So I Will have
2-315W CMH Lights
2-bath fans ( up to 100CFM) these are noisy so they are on isolation straps in the room. About 60W each so, 120W
1-Fan with Carbon Filter ( up to 300CFM) venting and back pressuring the room the boxes are in. about 100W
2- osculating fans on low (one per box) 10-25W each so,20-50W
There is also 8 -32W CFL's on My starters in the garage and small clip-on fan. 256W plus 25W
1181Watts give or take once everything is up and running
BTW
These boxes are 3'6" x 4' x 6'6". There is plenty of room for a osculating fans and the footprint for the light

I like the oscillating tower fans as they don't take up much room I like a 4x4 size room to accommodate my remote res & a 3x3 Scrog with room for air to circulate around my grow is in a workshop separate from the house

So. you can stink up your shop no probs. LOL
I am looking at one of the tower fans for My second room.

I'm looking at My little plants and they are growing so slow compared to My hydro grow. My Bubba Kush is on it's third set and is not even bigger than a dixii cup. that compared to My last grow at the same time.There is about a thousand times more plant here in the hydro.

 

[Haze the maze]

It's all fine and good for My Flux grow it needs to be trained for months but, I want the Bubba Kush to take off. I think I will introduce it to some real light in the next couple of days. There just is not enough light with the CFL's
No biggy this takes time. I will forget all the hardship once they all get older I'm sure they will out grow My rooms.

That can be a big problem for you. We need to be careful not to pull at the tigers tail. LOL
That being said, there are worse things that it could attract so, you need to put some kind of control on it . IMHO
I never want to smell weed in My house or outside for that mater.
What ever you do don't get any air freshener anywhere near your bud! ie. in the same house.if you can smell the weed in your house then the air freshener can get to your weed and will strip it's smell.

 

[Haze the maze]

I'll try to get some photo's of My little crew they are doing fine although a little slow. The Bubba Kush is starting to show it's Indica side with fat little leafs and the Early Vixen has been topped at the third node.
Started feeding on Sat. 200 PPM Bio Bizz Fish in Ph'ed water 75ml each plant. it's really hard to water little plants as they can get too wet easy and I don't have a magic technique to not over water. It becomes much easier once they get some bigger roots.
Ok I'll go out and take some pics.

 

[Haze the maze]

Bubba Kush
There looking kind of weak right now so I gave them some more water. The tiny one had a hard time waking up from it's shell but I will give her a chance.

 

[Haze the maze]

Early Vixen
They look terrible Oh well they will grow bigger. They also got water.

 

[Haze the maze]

In case you were wandering and I know you were.
The other plants next to the Early Vixen are seeds from My auto grow This one has a bud after 3 weeks. I'm going to try and get a gram out of her. If I put 28 of these in I could get an ounce, LOL
