Ok so i just got back online the other week so im playing catch up on posting.

I took the rubbermaid tub and cut a intake hole on the side and cut another one for the outtake on the top.
using 2, 3 speed (low, mid, high) double baring cpu fans for great air flow.
used zip ties to secure a power strip to the underside of the lid. started with 2 34watt CFLs.

started with 12 peat pots and 15 bagseeds from some 4 different bags. out of the 15 i had 12 germ. ( really happy about that)

*also, the inside of the tub has deep sides that i keep filled with water to keep a high humidity.


more to come... later

Bro, it is WAY too soon to be training your plants.

I was gonna say...I've never seen any plants training that early...i wonder what the adverse effects might be? Nice rubbermaid grow cases!

Well then... no harm, no foul. But, the size they are now is when you should be starting the training.

Hmm, I've grown only 2 times now, I have never trained my plants. Whats the point of training them? just to keep them growing lower?

the fans are Antec 3 speed double berring cpu fan. got them at frys for like 14$ ea.

this is only my second grow, first one was a total bust but i learned a lot about it. on this grow i wanted to train a little early to try and stimulate growth. seems to be working have more pics up in a few days. ( dont really know what day they are at but i know it is around the 2nd week.)

That's some pretty extreme LST you got goin there. It hasn't hurt none, but It really hasn't helped much either. You really dont want it that close to the surface of the soil. You certainly dont want any part of your plant touching the soil. That can cause problems. There needs to be constant airflow and breathability above the soil and under the plant to avoid rot and diseases. Plus you need room for the branches (offshoots) to develope and reach out. Youve kinda got the right idael but like I said its a little extreme lol. Check these LST threads out. Good luck with the grow!
