Not bad, a little under nuted... up them to 75% so they have more to work with... the light could be a little lower, you wouldn't want to stretch them out other wise the tops would just fall over with their own weight

Sorry that is a bad angle for the picture with the light, it is actually like 20-24 inches away. Is that still too far?

the only problem i can see is you running out of space when you start to flower..

otherwise everything looks fine..

as long as you arent seeing any mold anywhere that your golden..

girls look good...

I would definitely move it closer if your ventilation allows for it and you keep your temps down. I have a 1000 watt at least a foot closer than what you keep your 600 at on my seedlings.

The one plant is growing little leaves! The light is now 13 inches away, by the way. If anyone sees any kind of problems please let me know. Thanks. bongsmilie

P.S. I have had them going for 11 days now, but I think they were about 2 weeksish when i got them as clones.

very nice ;) the one month of growth looks great. what are you going to do about all the dense foliage below the canopy? The light won't be strong enough down there and it's going to reduce airflow as well. Also, in pic 3, some of your leaves are curling up. I'm having the same problem with a plant or two myself. Heat stress is my first guess. And it's only happening on one strain out of the 4 that I have. Are you doing anything to combat this or does it seem not to mind?

Thanks for the advice ADTR. You are correct! The plant in pic 3 actually grew all the way to the light and was touching and got burned. The leaves you were talking about are part of that same plant, that was my bad...I just moved the light up...easy fix. As far as the light beneath the canopy, I have not yet decided what to do. They are doing great for now with lots of new growth underneath, but within a few days the top will be completely covered. Do you have any ideas or suggestion?

are you going to be using any training techniques? And if your going to be running out of grow space soon, you should have started flowering a while ago.

Remember,this is my first grow attempt, lol. The trellis is the only training technique at the moment, besides a few strings every once in a while. I still have plenty of room so the problem is not that I'm running out of space, just that the light won't reach the half under the trellis in a few days if the top grows as fast as the rest has been growing. I'm not even sure that it will actually be a problem getting light there since it reflects throughout the room, but I will put some better pics tomorrow to show what I mean.

well you wont be running out of vertical space but it seems they are already packed in there at the moment. I'd be careful in how much you let those grow anymore. The 600 watt bulb is nice but you only have so many lumens to distribute from it. I wouldnt let them grow vertically anymore. They seem to be grown into the walls almost too. Also, don't waste your time with the bottom branches or soon to be popcorn nugs. I'd prune a lot of that undergrowth and focus light to the top foot or less of the canopy so you dont waste any light from your bulb.

btw, are you trying to do a SCROG? Anyhow... I would put those suckers in flower right now. Prune lower branches and foliage and get as many nice tops as you can to plump up on the top. that size will increase still by at least 2/3.

question: whats your temps look like??

Yah, so I added a 2nd trellis and am starting flowering today...Starting with the 3rd picture the view goes, bottom, middle, middle top, top, outside the room, from the light down. :weed: ADTR sorry I'm so slow on the responses. Thanks for the great suggestions as always. As for the lower branches and popcorn buds, I agree with what you said, but this is the first time I have even seen a plant grow so I am going to let them go as well just to watch :eyesmoke: I have been pruning a little bit off of each plant every day though.
answer: 55%-74% mostly in the 60's though
