Ok so I have been moving my plants around looking for the perfect place/ box etc... Well yesterday I decided to build a final resting place for the girls. I started with a 5x5 room and got paranoid and blah blah blah... Now I am in a 2x4 box with 36" of growing room. I used a piece of tempered glss to seperate the plants from the light to help control het and it working great. I lined it in IKO reflectashield 1/2" reflective foam board (amazing stuff and only $13 per 4x8 sheet). I have 2 pc fans venting the top through a DIY carbon filter and an air purifier feeding the grow chamber. The grow chamber vents throught the top so the combination of the purifier pushing and the pc fans pulling keeps my box pretty consistently 70 degrees with lights on. Pics of the box and the girls below. The oldest ones are 14-18" (bag seed) and the smallest ones are GHS Big Bang (black pots) and Skunkman's Haze x Skunk1 (cups).

Hey Pimp, sorry man never grown out doors but you are from central mass so I wanted to run something by you. Grew up in Worcester county by the way. I was noticing that there is quite a few grow lights, boxes etc. on worcester craigslist. I was thinking about selling handmade growboxes to order in that area. Do you think it will work?

Well not much to report other than I think I have a boy (1st pic). Topped em about a week ago and the tops are growing good and 1 even has 3 tops. Check the fan leaves huh? Started flowering nutes today. The babies got 1/4 strength veg nutes. I received a GHS mix today (Train Wreck, WW, White Rhino, AMS and The Church). I have my box set to 12/12 now so I will most likely grow whats in there and then start the new seeds but I may decide to grow them 12/12 from seed. My box is set up for 8 plants at 1sf each and right now I have 7 adults and a shit load of babies so it will be a while before I start them anyway. Check the pics. I am here for you people so give me some feedback. Also I hav had so much fun building grow rooms and boxes that I am thinking about building custom turn key grow boxes and keeping the prices very reasonable. Just something to take my mind off the lame shit in my life and help those of you who cant afford to pay $1000+ for a box but still want professional quality in a stealth box. We'll see. What up to my bitch from the bowling alley (A true friend. Not a back stabbing coward like the rest). Happy growing!!!! Bad things happen to bad people. You'll see.

If you sell em for cheap enough, probably, but if you're looking to make a good deal of money off of em i dont know how efficient that'll be handmaking them. I don't have any experience with grow boxes though so i dont know.

ok so i fired up the hps 5 days ago and transplanted and these fuckers are taking off. i fimmed 2 days ago. you can't really see the new growth in the pics but it's there. I know i can't fit all these plants during flower but i didn't use fem seeds so i'm expecting a few deaths when I flip the lights. I have them on 20/4 right now. my mechanical timer has 15 min slices. has anyone ever cut the lights down 15 min a day until 12/12 that can report some results?

If you chill out and use common sense in your thinking and read read read then you will not be so paranoid. If you order seeds you will not end up getting arrested bro. We all do it. I wouldnt ship em to your grow spot but definately dont be afraid to oder. Think like a cop and try to bust yourself. If you can bust yourself aftyer throwing out all the inside knowledge that you have about your activities then so can they. But keep in mind when trying to bust yourself that the cops have no clue what is going on so the only way that they can bust you is if they know something. Dont tell anyone anything and they cant tell the cops anything. Dont worry. Cops dont randomly knock on doors. If they haven't contacted you yet then they wont until you fuck up and give them a reason to and buying seeds online wont get them on your case.

Hey big, just found this thread and saw some of your original pics. very nice. one thing I would say and your prob already aware of this but, some of the seedilings you have are REALLY stretched out. if you can get them up closer to the light (about 6" or so) they wont be nearly as lanky and flop over they way those were. I know its too late for the ones in the pic now but just for future sprouts.

Andy,
Those lanky seedlings are Haze x Skunk so the are a tall plant anyway but I am also going to LST due to the fct that they are sativa dominant so I wasn't too concerned with seedling height.

PS Everyone. I built an 18"x18"x35" box today and popped a Train Wreck fem into germination. I am planning on doing a single plant micro SCROG and doing a very detailed grow journal on here and in the journals thread. I will be running a single 68 wat light and using a blend of nutrients that I will reveal at the end. I have a goal of 2 grams per watt and if I meet the goal I will be posting the pics in December on the 2010 Grow Off thread. Should be good.

Ok so I was checking out my plants today and the are starting to show sex but I cant tell the difference yet.

Also I am doing a 1 plant SCROG with a GHS Train Wreck seed. It popped today so today is day 1. The link to the journal is https://www.rollitup.org/grow-journals/322791-big-vs-1-plant-micro.html and it's gonna be a sweet grow. Shooting for 136 grams. Check it out.

Shout out to my girl "Bartendin' Biatch". :hug:
