    quick trim question

    Thanks for the info everyone. I'm growing in a small grow box with a 250 Watt cfl and have a complete canopy and the bottoms of them are starting to look starved for light. I will try and just tie them down for now and see if things improve. I would add more light but my cab is only 23 x 18 so I...

    250 Watt CFL grow

    There are 6 plants in 1 1/2 gallon containers.(just fit). Looks like more due to the mylar. This is my first grow and figured with such a small space I wanted low heat, and avoid vent system.

    250 Watt CFL grow

    250 Watt CFL grow

    Yeah I have noticed already that light getting through to the bottom is an issue. I will start the 12/12 today and figure that half will be male so that will leave me with 3 and enough space for them to grow more. I have plenty of height but not so much l + w. (Approx. 24x20x48) if I add a 24...

    250 Watt CFL grow

    Well I figured they were done in veg. I don't know the strain, just some bag seeds. I thought they would be a bit taller by week 4 but that's ok. The six do fill my space completely so after I can pull the males I should have enough room for them to expand. My set up is totally sealed and light...
