All those bottles of water and shit in the corner will start growing algae in em soon. Better off finding a diff. place for any water,liquid fert. and such than in the direct light and heat of your cab.

Wicked setup dude, would never have thought to use a tv lol.
whatever the bag seeds are man they look pretty good. Looks similar to an old skunk strain i used to grow

Also doesnt look to me like you have any deficiencies hey, that dark green may due to too much nitrogen if anything. Other than that they look healthy as!! +rep to you man for your second grow

Thanks for the input again guys. About the water bottles and such. Thanks for the advice, i will be moving my water bottles and fert solutions. I never thought of algae with closed lids, but hey, its possible. But the tupperware containers, are water and hydrogen peroxide, its to help raise the humidity level. my house has forced air heating and the humidity gets so low in here, that my instruments cant even read the humidity level. About the nitrogen issues, maybe ill just give em a flush and see whats up, will nitrogen toxicity cause the burnt lower leaves just like a deficiency? IDK, im pretty new to plant diagnosis. But i learn everything from this site. IM gonna give a little photo update today, its my day off.

Sounds like a tough strain. I just want something that will respond well to lst, and topping. Something that will bush out. One thing i do love about ww is its supposed to be pretty resilient to mold. ANd seedsman is the breeder?

Flush is complete. Ill do it again tomorrow just to be sure. Had a little accident though, broke one of my main colas right where it attaches to the stem, its still attached so i just tied it with a twist tie.

He is using bag seed, I recommended Seedsman WW for when he buys genetics.
And becareful with the flushing. With nitrogen toxicity a light flush will normally make things right. The plant will continue to use nitrogen. And yes, too much of something will make it look like a deficiency. Too much of something will displace other things that she needs.

This light looks great, only thing I would add is some 10,000k, or 14,000k LEDs. Maybe a couple green, and uv as well. But as is results look really promising so far man!!

Hmmm. I'm using a 400 w hps, which is actually a bit much for the area I'm working with imo. I thought about leds. I'm actually thinking about using some hid car headlights, and doing a 12v dc grow. I do know those hids put out some serious lumens. And I can get them in any spectrum basically. And they'll save power, my cars hids only use 35 watts each. Also they will save space. There's a bunch of stuff out there I've gotta try. Do you use a green light In yours? First I've heard of that.

Looks pretty kool bro. I wish i had a box like that. Is it difficult to get into? I always thought itd be kool too turn a big projection set like that into a fish tank lol sorry im gettin side tracked. Ive got a few questions.
1. Are u venting the air outside or anything?
2. Are you having any problems with heat buildup?
3. Would you like any help on tweaking ur design? Like is there anything you would like it to do better other than just grow the herb lol and if so what kinda budget u workin with?

Thanks, right now I am running it with the door open, the bud doesn't smell too bad yet. This weekend I am picking up a bathroom vent which I will just vent out of the cab, and that will pass through a carbon filter. I knows its a little ghetto atm. Oh and the air will just be vented into the room the tv is in.
My budget is a little low atm, I work construction and I'm just now coming out of the slow season.
Temps are good, at first I had temp issues until I added a big intake fan. Right now temps stay between 76 and 85 with lights on, 66 to 72 with lights off. One thing I may do different is do away with liquid nutes and go all organic using raw ingredients. Liquid nutes seem too touchy.
I've got so many ideas but they only go as deep as my wallet.
Its a little overwhelming at first, but it becomes a way of life once you get into it, its very rewarding.
