Ok, here goes, I've been toying with idea of doing a journal for a while now and i've decided to take the plunge.
my set up is a 100x100x180 budbox tent with a 600w hps, 125mm ruck extractor and a small carbon filter and a little desk fan. my last grow is drying in there atm.
I also have a small veg tent which is a dr40 with 2 18w cfls.
I'll be using bio bizz nutes.
And now for the really important part, the plants which are gonna be 6 of my best jack herer clones, i've got 9 to choose from. they are clones from my previous grow which was from seed.
I'm not claiming this to be anything special its just my attempt to grow my own, so I don't have to buy weed from the scumbags that only care about money and not about what they are selling you.

I'm gonna be bending the plants over so that it encourages the lower branches to grow as big or bigger than the main stem, I tape one of the top fan leaves to the side of the pot so the main growing tip is lower than the bottom of the plant. I think its called low stress (LST). they are pretty flexible and I did the same on my last grow and it seemed to work ok.
any comments/tips or advice is more than welcome. Oscar..

cheers mate. i hope i can do these plants justice. i'll do updates when i can, probably a couple of times a week, glad to have you herer, sorry i mean here..

the cfls seem to be ok, but i don't think they'll have enough power when the plants get a bit bigger. they're going under my hps as soon as the other is dry. what do you think of my selotape method?

hey. i like your setup. i've got a similar one. well did...i've since pulled it down as i wasn't comfortable with the noise and the high temps i was getting with the 600wHPS.

i know i couldn't use a 600w hps in summer with the room i have it in.

how do you go with managing temps in your box?

are your fans noisy? can you tell me more about your air cirulation?

if you don't mind me asking, are you growing in an apartment of a house ?

sorry for all the questions but your setup is similar to mine and i've resorted to just keeping my plants vegging under CFLs in my closet until i find a better place to grow.

i vent the heat directly out side and i dont have too much heat build up. as for during the summer months i'll have to let you know..

tbh i don't know either coz i've only had them for a couple of weeks. but so far so good but the leaves on the ww at the back are thinner than they were with the hps.
