do you have a good fan and ducting through that thing?
yeah i have a 435cfm centrifugal fan pulling thhru the cooltube, using a 400w hps...the other end of cooltube is open right now...i have a carbon filter on the ceiling ready to be attached as soon as the smell gets strong..... i also have a like a 140cfm duct booster fan constantly pumping fresh air into the box... temps stay between 68-76F

i did reposition the plants...i didnt take pics...but i tied alot away closer into the walls...and no, unfortunatly the light cant go any higher, im just hoping the vertical growth is about to be done...i just bought Bonticare Cal-Mag Plus, im going to start using this with my other nutes beginning of week 5...im also introducing them A.N. Overdrive the beginning of week 5 too..

you can always do a technique where you "pinch" the stems....you do ths by taking the stem that you want to bend and squeeze it count to 20 let got do it agin squeeze a little harder,...count to 20 then stop ...do it a couple times a day and eventually the stalk will bend over by its self but it wont snap.......hope it helps!!!

oh word ? well dick, maybe if you knew how to read instead of just looking at pictures you would know 1) one of my tops died from being too close to the light, congrats you realized the first picture in fact is that plant, maybe you're not so dumb. 2) again if you knew how to read, you would've saw that i stated i had no more room to move the light up..like why the fuck you think the top died? why the fuck you think i made this thread moron? come on kid, don't go posting dumb comments. And do you actually think i would be using fuckin yo-yos to hoist my tube? lolol post some pics of your first set up bro, i bet ill laugh at every pic you post! ;) but go ahead laugh at these pics too...
