About 10 inches LOL
& what height we at now, more questions & more questions.....lol

i kind of need to know these things, (pretty please) from what i'm seeing they stretch like crazy, i got 47" from hydroton to bottom of light, got 3 TD on the go, i got impatient with the first that just refused to pop so i threw 2 more in & they popped at once, go figure, i got 3 TD & 1 Utopia Haze, in a 37" x 26" area, all 4 in 2' x 2' ebb n flow tray on shelf, tote res on floor underneath, shelf to ceiling 69", i suppose i should put some pics in my album or my own thread at least...lollol

Using a 2x2x5.3ft growlab tent, with a 171 CFM inline fan, and a 200CFM phresh filter. Running the air through the carbon filter, into the hood (sealed with foil tape), then into the inline fan and out the tent. Also have a 6 inch clip on fan for air curculation :-P


verde i'm so glad i saw this, i keep seeing so many set-ups that run the same way EXEPT no glass lens, let alone 1 thats taped too, cos i've always been wondering with all those others, doesn't it kind of defeat the purpose of a carbon scrubber if u going to draw straight of top of plant through the light hood....lol

Day 10 Flower update... when the FUCK will they stop growing :shock: I should have put them in flower at 6 inches rather than 10 LOL!

First of all, currently the inline fan is the ceiling.. wondering if I will have to take the inline fan OUT of the tent :lol: I hope they slow the fuck down soon!


canopy, look at those ladies! jeeze!


The arrow indicates where I began flower... 10 days ago!





Some flower action (calyxes starting):

I wish someone told me to kick them on veg at 6-7 inches rather than 12 inches.. LOL I'm accounting for 2.5x stretch optimal, 3x stretch MAX.... then I have to take the inline fan out of the tent, and hang it above... which is not stealth LOL ill be covering it with a blanket...

Some people are having some crazy results though..

this is mcgyver smokes tangerine dreams

Day 11 Tangerine Dream

btw guys, I opened the tent to see them only stretch 1/3 of what they stretched the last 10 days! So the good energy must be working! Keep it up! I think they are actually slowing down.. They are more than 2x the height they were in veg! Starting to produce calyxes down the branches... probably a few more sets of leaf then nugg.

Just watered with 6.55 plain water

*sigh* I just have to look at the stress of this grow as another learning experience! Next time, vegging way earlier, around day 25-30.. I let them go too long (35?)

Just difficult to drop a grand on a learning experience! Oh well, more ganj. will be grown in this tent ;)

onto the photos






Right after watering, after I stuffed them in (light is raised to put them in the tent)


After tucking fan leaves, and doing a little re arranging.. much better yes?


Them doing their thing, light lowered.. leaves tucked... soil saturated with pH balanced h2o ;)
