This pic of three bulbs and I do got light in sometimes it in closet bedroom light got in would a dark colored sheet help
Your walls are white correct? Use that to your advantage, move that winshield reflector away, put it somewhere els like on top of your lights so the lights only reflect to the ground.
Move the cool white tube closer like within 1-2" from the main top, put the two soft whites a little lower in the sides, try to get it to efficiently light up the buds as best as you can.
You can cover the cracks of the door with a black sheet but there shouldnt be any light in that closet when she is sleeping. If she does hermie out completly she will slow or stop resin production. At least you will get more seeds!
You need air circulation! Both when the lights are on and off. Make sure you dont recirculate stale air also! Are you trying to hide this from anyone in your house?

This will be my last cfl grow, they will now be used for side lighting with a 250watt HPS and 125watt HPS. For a single plant. Honestly im glad im going to get to harvest her! I have had so many problems, even a round 3 of fungus gnats!

im having some root issues or nitrogen deficiency. lost almost all my fan leaves. quite quickly about 2 leafs a day. it seems she is only dropping the leaves that are covered under other leaves. not much i can do about it now unless i use solubles.

It's normal to lose fan leaves towards the end of flowering. It's a sign it's going to be finished. The yellowing is normal alsO.

I have around 4 weeks to go. Pretty sure they will all be gone by next week lol. I dont feel bad about it.

Middle/bottom of the plant looks naked. She is hungry (N-P) fan leaves yellowed and died. and purpling conopy fan leaves but im just gonna ride out the organic ferts untill next grow. Only the top fan leaves left by the buds, i do notice cooler room temps brighter floor and bottom popcorns packing on a but more popcorn. Ppm 800, ph in 6 ph out 7.0 she just wont eat! I notice my fox farms big bloom isnt clear anymore. It looks like chocolate milk! Anyways i believe my deficiencies came from watering my soil in febuary with 4parts h2o2 to 1 part water. Killed my micro life in the soil. I will either 1 be converting to solubles with azamax or fully organic with bennies.

i have been patient with this strain and it seems to be doing okay and smells really potent. although i am pissed with my feeding results on my first all-organic grow. i have some sour D seeds and blue dream cuts. going to veg them organically again into a 10 gallon each and flower 3 via scrog under a 1000watt shps. hopefully start getting my yield up by mixing more kelp/bone meal for the flower transplant soil.

Just harvested the top 2/3 of the plant. 133g wet... Depressing. Going to try and re-veg it along with 3 blue dream clones. And hit all 4 with the 1000watt super hps as soon as they recover from transplant/topping.20150505_152010.jpg
