I have a plant that's 30 days into flowering now and i just picked up a 100x microscope 3 days ago. Ive been looking at all the buds since then and what i found is 90% of the plants trichomes are cloudy with 10% still being clear. I have yet to see any amber trichomes. My question is how much...

1-3 weeks depending on strain.

what kind of lights are you using and how close are they?

I'd say they look pretty damn good.

I strongly suggest you get the cool tube with a inline fan to exhaust the heat out regardless the size of the box. Your suppose to attach the carbon filter to an inline fan to suck the smell through the filter and out the box. The filter is not a fan.

You think 600w would be too much?

I'm worried about heat too but i wont know till i order the light :(. I wanna do a bunch of little plants. Take clones and put theme straight to 12/12.

Sweet I was going to get the cool tube set up from ebay but i didn't know what watts to go with. i'll be sure to get a inline fan that has 400+ cfm. I saw one on ebay that comes with a filter. Thanks for the advice I appreciate it!

Honestly I wouldn't worry about the starter leaves they will die off anyways. Id raise your rez too 2 inches above the plants. Cfls don't really put off alot of heat unless you got a bunch.

awesome setup btw. They look ok. I would try and lower the lights. You working with just 2 cfls?

better stick with a 600 then. haha How many cfm would cool a 600?

If i were to get a 1000w how many cfm fan would i need 250+?

hmmm.... yeah you might be right. I'm using fox farm ocean forest and for nutes im using fox farm trio. I want to try and do sog. I don't really like big plants.

Should I go with a 1000w then? Money isn't an issue so I could do either or.

First off i have to say thank you to everyone that posts. This site has helped me so much. I have one question though i have a flowering box 4h x 4l x 20"d. Should i get a 400w or 600w hps?
