no problem, thanks Kirashiro.
well, upon closer inspection, i've decided to go another week. the trichs are just milky, so i think its best i go a little longer. i've checked out radio shack for their scope. they have it in stock right down the road from me. heres a pic and its only $12.50. its funny to read all the reveiws that talk about how well it works for checking trichs, LoL.
well, back to the setup, i have to hook everything back up now.

ok, i got everything all hooked back up. the flowering box is back to 12/12. today is day 78 and 63 days of flowering. i tied the 5 main branches back down, kinda crazy tho, there all twisted around the box instead of just straight down, looks real any ways, LoL. i guess will still just use plain rain water and keep flushing, so next friday when i cut, that will be 2 weeks total.
i also got the veg box all setup and ready along with another gravity fed water system. i can use it for drying the buds or for starting my new grow, so im still not sure when im gonna start my new seeds. and heres all the pics.
the 1 pic is the way i have both boxes setup and the trick knob i made for the veg box, LoL.

yeah I've just gone to lowes or home depot for lights. they had a huge mother fucker there, 68 watt, that i was so tempted to buy but I only have like 4x23watt 6500k, 3x23watt 2700k and just bought a 32 watt 6500k yesterday, but I think ill buy another one or two of those. and also they sell Y splitters there in the outlet/light isle and they help a ton. but they have 2700-6500k and 13watt to 32 and 68 watt.. sadly no 42 cause that woulda been perfect :/. oh well, ill do just fine

What's the Strain? Also what medium is that? P.S you should see my grow room now. big improvement from before, i got 6 more lights and am now doing a CFL growmove those lights closer man. thats some wicked stretching you got going on lol.
anyway like i said before ive been working on a cabinet for a while and now its almost complete. currently running 3 26w cfls on the shelf and one 42w. ill add another to the shelf before too long. then you can see i have 1 26w in front of the plants. i just added a 20w fluorescent tube to the back thats not in the pics. thats 166 watts so far. eventually im going to take out the shelf and attach the lights to a board so i can move them whenever. i just got a gnarly air hockey table fan that im going to make into an exhaust fan when i start flowering. these are shitty pics that i took before the batteries died on my camera so they're not the best. the plants are getting close to a month old and are looking great. i only had time to take a pic of one though

Man I just bought this spec from radio shack, the one someone posted the link for (http://www.radioshack.com/product/index.jsp?productId=2179604),
it was like $12.94 or something.
But its a 60-100x and maybe I don't the technique down or maybe I'm retarded but I can not figure out how to use this thing. I mean I'm trying to look at the trichomes because I'm like 60 some odd says into flowering but idk if I should cut and bud to look at it because I'm putting the microscope right on the budd and trying to focus but the bud keeps moving or my hand does and I cant get a good look.....its very frustrating.....anyone have a better way to investigate the trichomes with this spec? Maybe a technique that I'm not thinking of or trying?
