oNLY 3 WEEKS INTO FLOWERING MY NUITRIENTS ARE REALLY SPEEDING EVERYTHING UP, I AM RELUCTANT TO HIGHER MY LIGHTS EVEN THOUGH THE CANOPY IS WITHIN 1 INCH OF THE CFL AND UFO's, SO i INCREASED MY COLD AIR CHIMNEY INTAKE FAN TO 6V FROM 3V, KEEPING MY LIGHTS A FEW DEGREES COOLER, THIS WILL KEEP ALL MY BUD SITES CLOSER TOGETHER AND HELP BULK UP THE APPEARENCE OF THEIR YIELDS, THEY ARE THIRSTY THOUGH 5L PER DAY EACH...THE DISADVANTAGE OF USING 5L POTS!! HOWEVER I SEE IT AS A MORE RAPID CHANGE OVER OF FRESH NUITS AND MORE CONTROL OVER MY LADIES GROWTH, EARLY FLOWERING SO I HOPE THESE LADIES HARVEST WELL, AM LOOKING FORWARD TO MAKING 8 GRADES OF ICE HASH, CURING MY BUDS AND MAKING AN ALCOHOLIC TINTURE, THEN I PLAN TO REGENERATE THEM FOR A SECOND STRONGER HARVEST, I SUCCESFULLY INJECTED DILUTED STRAWBERRY JUICE INTO THEIR STEM SO IT WILL BE INTERESTING TO SEE IF THIS EFFECTS THE FLAVOUR AND OR SMELL UPON HARVEST - STELTHY

LED's ARE REALLY GOOD FOR VEGGING BUT FOR A NICER CROP I WOULD ALWAYS ADD A CFL IN TO NURTURE THE LIGHT SPECTRUM SO VEGING IS GREAT WITH LED ALONE BUT TO BUD ITS MARGINLY BETTER IF YOU ADD SOME CFL LIGHT IN THERE TOO
BECAUSE OF THE WAY I SET UP MY COOL AIR INTAKE I CAN CONTROL THE COLD AIR BUILD UP CFM MOVEMENT THIS HELPS THE CFLS STAY WARM BUT NOT HOT AND I ONLY ALLOW AN INCH GAP. I DONT HAVE THE PLANTS TOUCHING THE LIGHTS I WANT THEM TO BELIEVE THEY CAN GROW AS TALL AS THEY WANT WITHOUT FEELING ANY STRESS OR RESTRICTION AND ALSO THIS HELPS TO PREVENT THE BURNING OF TIPS ETC,

Yeah that 'tard didn't know what he was talking about lol, just cos he was using a 400w HPS, don't mean shit! Its how you use it and what with + many other factors! Anyhow,They are looking good! Definitely looks better than the one who hijacked your thread! Wow, I didn't think the foliage would get that thick!
, the foliage is well thick these ladies currently stand at 34" tall and are now 3.5 weeks into 12/12, so hopefully once the big bud stems excel in growth I will be able to prise the stems apart so light can penetrate the mid-section they are very thirsty girls though...5l each per day atm. crazy! not sure how long till harvest but will take a guess at 7/8 weeks time I will continue to take photos and update when I feel there is a significant new difference since the last shoot - STELTHY.

Hey Stelthy those plants look sweet. I love the whole set up. Looks kind of futuristic. That foreskin face tom_420 gave me some shit too for doing 2 threads in a small amount of time so i think he believes he rules this site. I think someone that can grow without a MH or HPS is actually a better grower. A good tradesman never blames his tools as they say. Keep it coming stelthy. Your plants are bushy and going to give you some delicious smoking buds.

My cupboard is 6ft tall x 2ft wide x 1ft deep I bought it as a kids wardrobe/cupboard from B&Q was 60 quid, then I modified it from top to toe, and injected about 400 quid into it! - from my local hydro store, I got the UFOs from e-bay, they are 630 nm I now have 2 envirogrow lights, a 250w red spec at the top, and a 125w red spec at the bottom for under lighting, and i have 2x 25w flurescent' tubes 1 either side for side lighting, I spent tons on nuits, and other bits n pieces, but its my hobby and it keeps me busy

They are looking really lush now! I hear those 90w UFOs are pretty expensive. How much did you get for yours? If you don't mind me asking
