I have yet to do 2 grows the same way in a row. I usually change up my setup with every grow. If i did not do that i think i would get bored really fast. It has takin me about 3 grows to get my vegging time down pat with the strains that i have grown and i have my temps from 71f when the light is off and 78f with the light on. It has takin a long time to figure out how to keep my temps and humidity in check. Now that i have done that. This is where the fun begins. LOL
I will keep a journal on my next grow from the beginning of flowering to the end.

T,

I find that when they get bigger the buds suffer a bit but when they stop and concentrate on the bud all hell breaks loose! LOL!

Yea that looks to be the case with the roady,
its growing a fair bit taller everyday and it looks to be stretching all the branches and bud spots hoping they will bush out nicely tho.
I'l update tonite i think.

Few more pics of my autos for ya, seem to be coming along well, the road runner is the 1 at the back left or 1st pic, the tip of it started drooping from side to side think i'l put a support stick in to help her stay awake !! thats now 18.5 inches and the tallest la diva is around 14 - 15".
For a 10.1 mega pixel camera i thought the pics wouldve been a bit better than these !!

Don't show pictures. Promised the wife when I started growing but I'm working on her! Nope, no auto's yet but was thinking of trying it in the basement this winter in a dwc bucket. Stays between 60-65 down there in the winter and a big light may actually help for a change. You doing 18/6 vegging?

Well thats fair enough, sounds good bro i like the bucket idea have read a little on them but iv just always sticked to soil nice n easy.
Well i started these off on 20/4 for the first 2 weeks then switched to 18/6 because from what i gather they dont really veg. As soon as they came out they were wanting to flower, i aint complaining tho!

I just made the switch over to 400 watt digital and it is the same temp if not cooler than my 250 watt magnetic. Just though I would let you guys know if anyone was thinking of upgrading. Pics in my journal for those interested

Yeah but the digital ballast puts out barely any heat so even if it was in the box I don't think the temps would be affected

Man the 400 watt puts out so much more light than the 250 watt, there is a very noticeable difference in lumens
