right on. I plan on having them moved to a closet for flowering, so I hope that is enough room. thanks for the advice

Sweet. I didn't want to have to start from scratch with another huge lightbulb bill for the right spectrum. So if they're in between veg and flowering, I should be able to use them alone for veg and along with 2700k's on 12/12 for flowering? I'm new at this, so I just want to make sure I am...

Thanks for the info on female plants! Those plants look fine to me, they could just be reaching to the lights, but I'm not an expert. Overwatering causes my leaves to droop down more, so that shouldn't be a problem. As for heat, my thermometer reads around 90*F most of the time which is pretty...

So it has better light penetration qualities? Good to know. Problem is, I can't seem to find any in that spectrum:cuss: Do you think these 4100k's will be good enough to keep the plant alive and thriving? Hopefully I will find some 6500k's soon.

I live in Canada and don't have fox farms readily available. I've ordered some on the internet though. Do you know if fox farms ocean forest is good enough for a full grow? Also, will it get stopped at the border because it's soil? any info would help, thanks! :)

cool! Your plants look like mine did last week, once they start growing bigger it's so rewarding to see their progress. I hope i get some females too! do you know how to tell what sex theay are? I know u can make them show earlier with light cycle changes or something, but i don't want to stress...

Those look great! I have my lights even closer to my plants and doesn't seem to burn them as long as you keep a fan on them to keep them cool. Benefits of CFL's i suppose.

Feel free to leave a message or comment! Any tips are greatly appreciated.

Oh, also I have noticed people saying that CFL's in 6500k spectrum are best for vegging and 2700k is good for flowering. I have "cool white" lights in 4100k currently for veg. Is this spectrum sufficient for the veg cycle?

I bought the blue box "cool white" 150w CFL's from wal-mart, but they say only 4100k. Does anyone know if this spectrum is still good for vegging?

So I've decided to build a set up in my closet for flowering because there will be more room for the plants to grow, and better places to rig up lights. So my question is: Should I move my lights further away from my plants to "stretch" them out to make them taller for more budsites? Or will...

I'm not too sure actually. This is my first "project" build and grow, so I am not sure what the outcome or yield will be. People have been saying it's too small and hot and the plants will stay small, but it seems to be working for these little plants so far. As for how long I will keep them in...

The grow box doesn't get too hot right now, but i think it may be an issue if i add any more lights. You're right about the size of plants, I'll just have to set up something else with more space.:weed:

If i flowered now, how many bud sites would there be? I mean, what would the yield be? would it even be worth it?

I'm not an expert,:confused: i just started growing myself and they look okay to me. those cfl lights you have can be pretty close to the plants if it doesn't get too hot, i have similar lights. What are you growing them in? it looks like wood chips

Oh, another noob question i have is: Does smoking in the grow area affect the plant? I know nicotine on your hands is bad when touching the plant, but the c02 from your breathing is good for it; so does cigarette or marijuana smoke carry the c02 which will benefit the plants? or are these toxins?

I don't recall the exact day they sprouted, but they took a week or 2 to actually grow anything beyond the first leaves. within the last week they have shot up considerably. My guess would be 2-3 weeks give or take.

I just started growing a few weeks ago, but I can already tell that you know your plant inside out. Thanks for all the info, it's really appreciated!

Hey man, I like your set up. I rigged this one up a few weeks ago when i decided to start growing. let me know what u guys think. ;-)

Thanks! Also, I fear the container i made to grow my plants in is too small. Is there a minimum amount of space that marijuana can grow in comfortably? at least until flowering? I am trying to keep these as short and bushy as possible for security reasons :blsmoke:
