Hi dude, Thanks mate :) :) Yeah I cant wait to see how many buds I get in total...and how big each one will turn out :) .. I've not yet bothered installing the loft setup...as I can run a full spectrum between (580W & 730W total) with low-ish temps considering.. and thats cooling with air at ambient room temp :) When I venture into using the 600W HPS along with the CFL side lighting and UV-B lamp I will be running approx "930W total !!" - and not only will I wait for the Winter Months to make use of the cold air.. but I will then start modding the loft space accordingly :) ...I'd love to use the 600 this winter that thing is so fuckin' bright in my cab.. I am sure the buds would be dreamy and kick-ass big :) :) :) (mouth waters) ... yum! \m/ \m/ - STELTHY :leaf:

"Yeah - 80 Bud-Nodes!" :) :) its gonna drink a lot of nuits and I reckon water changes will happen more frequently..The bigger they become..

I ll have to check out your thread man! Be good to compare etc ... :) - STELTHY :leaf:
I don't have one yet. I didn't have a camera until a couple weeks ago. I will definitely post some pictures of the finished product somewhere around here. Here are a couple shots I took while cleaning out my rez a few minutes ago.



My setup is not as clean as yours, but I make no excuses haha! I'll get there, just have to rebuild after life happened again. You know how it is :wink:

edit - Ignore my kitty's hair there on the right side haha. She just likes to eat a few of my trimmings every now and then :D

Lol funny story. 2 CFLs. When I got back into town from Florida..I pretty much had nothing anymore. So a friend gifted me a tent and some cheap ventilation, so I went and found a good rubbermaid container in the garage and cleaned it out, bought 2 big CFLs(1 flower, 1 veg) ,grabbed an air pump/air stone, and got some shitty no name nutrients from a friend. So short answer - CFLs. Definitely not by choice, though. Just working with what I could get my hands on this cycle. And feeling very very fortunate for the way things are going so far.

edit - I added a better picture up there^^

..........................................................UPDATE-MONDAY #2...............................................................





The main Stem is really thickening up :) I will get a measure tape a record its circumference sometime this week :)





Here are a couple of shots of her under-side.. I have notice the odd crap leaf! .. So when my lights next come on I will snip away and get rid of them.. apart from that she is looking splendid !!




I tried to get a shot from higher up looking down, But for some reason the pic came out blurred... So I will take some more shots later when the lights are on!









The White hairs/Flowers are looking great they are small and compact at the moment.. The canopy is approx. 28" tall, I have slightly raised my UV-B tube by about 1", and have raised the 2X right CFL's a couple of inches also.. the CFL's on the left were still fine at the lower height.. and I am going to leave the main reflector where it is until tommoz morning..





I am hoping by hanging the left CFL's at a lower height, will encourage big buds - to match the rest of the plant (in the foreseeable future).. I could hang them higher and taunt them into stretching a bit but I suspect that'd cause skinny buds in that area?!




I'am still waiting on a couple of items in the mail, so hopefully they'll arrive at some point today.. I will also add a few more pics a bit later today - When the lights come on. I have 2L of nuits left so once the lights come on my thirsty lady should have devoured the remaining nuits and a fresh dose of nuits will be in order :)




Ha... Result !!! ... Just as I finished writing my last paragraph, There was a knock at the door and I receive 2 parcels ! Hmm what could they be : (big beaming smile) !!!






My 400W Dual Spec DigiLux HPS Lamp ~ arrived !!! Fuckin' Sweet !!!!




My 1st thought was - Man! it looks big :) !!!




My 2nd thought was...Hmm it would be rude not to do a size comparison with my standard Osram 400W HPS bulb...


So...




I did, and here they are - side by side, the new Digi-Lux lamp is alot thicker in diameter, I can't wait to plug this bad-boy in :) :) :) !!!


Also... Some more good news! :-




My VEHO 400X USB Microscope just came :) !! can't wait to test that out either !!!


So its been a good week, I will take some more pics when the lights come back on... I may wait another week to install the new '400' just to make sure we've seen the last of the hot weather, but I'll make my mind up about that during today :) ... Hope ya'll like my 2nd Monday Update...More pic's still to come...



Ok so its a day late, but here are the extra pics I promised..with the lights on :-













I have decided to wait a week or so until I add the new 400W Digi-Lux lamp to my setup! I just wanna make sure it doesn't get to hot in the Cab. and I dont want to be running my A.C all day - every day !! So as soon as we start feeling some serious Winter temps. out-side, then the Digi-Lux will be going in 'all '57,000' Lumens blazing' :) :) :)

Hope ya'll like the new additional pics with the lights on in various stages of time... That's all for this week, until next weeks 'MONDAY UPDATE #3' !!! :) :) :) - STELTHY :leaf:
