wild ones lol fucking right there, that cab runs two 400w and they went straight into the cab from seed. the lamps are on digi ballasts so i started off on the low setting for the first week then switched it up every other week until i hit the super lumems and thats were it stayed, fucking insane growth lol. I just think the combination of 18 plants packed into the cab and the fact its hydro pushes the plants up rather than out the first grow i did in the cab was only half filled and was sweet. Still going 12/12 from seed i didnt expect them to get this fucking big.

you know i was thinking.i wonder how much better my plants would be if they got the full 12 of hps cause by the time i feed all of em and get them all back in the cab they prob get between 10 1/4 and 11 hours....

cant you fit a garland plant tray in your cab, when you add it up del that a fair bit of hours lost over a grow, I have one of thos trays feed till run off then wet vac it out the tray, no moving plants about.

there inclosed in the top of the cab plenty of cool air as its got a fan behind the ballast bringing it in, i will probably cut my losses del and pull this grow down shame as the auroa indica and wonderwoman look like they would have been sweet plants and i really wanna do them in coco, i just cant stand looking at that mess anymore lol probably got atleast 4/5 weeks to go and i dont think i can take looking at those plants for that long. If i pull it i can move my rocklock into this cab then put my grapefruits and WWS under the HPS in my other cab as there under a CFL now, im germing seeds every week so space is gonna be an issue and perpetual grow is now my priority

having had similar situations myself i can honestly say i dont blame you, sometimes its just best to cut your losses, can you take some cuttings before you kill em? or not bothered

not bothered mate, aint really got space for cuttings anymore all my cabs run 12/12 so thats cuttings out the window. Ive lost a hundred quid in seeds but shit happens eh atleast ive got a good idea that some of these strains are good for 12/12 and in coco should be nice managable good yeilding plants.
