Honestly I'm not sure how old the plant is. But if I had to guess I would say around 4 weeks of vegging and it's been somewhere around 4 weeks of flowering so far, so around 2 months old.

Awesome dude! I love my homebox so far, it works great, I have the Large. It's a little harder to put together than the website makes it out to be but once it's up it's sweet. The top can hold up to like 100 lbs. I have my lights, AG hood and my carbon filter/fan hanging from it no prob.

Yo, whats up all.
So my plant is really starting to recover from the burn. The buds are starting to form now. I got a couple pics but I'm gonna get some better ones in a couple days when the buds have filled in a little better.
She is standing at 2 ft. 4 inches which is pretty big considering I started flowering it when it was 6 or 7 inches tall.

ya my buddy grew a nice strain of lowryder # 2's under 4 50 watt equivalent and it turned out pretty good, considering the strain... ive been looking at this l.e.d. http://www.htgsupply.com/growlights.asp?categoryID=1&subcategoryID=168&typeID=91 the 12o watt because i cannot afford the 300 watt haha but wondered if anyone has any suggestions. if you look on this site my buddy has the l.e.d. pannels..
how do you like your tent? ive been thinking about getting one to hide the light but was a little worried about heat issues. i have a 400watt hps and no carbon filter...\\thanks

I bet the prices are going to start going down, I'd hold off for a while.

The tent is awesome! You don't need the carbon filter unless the odor is a problem. But either way you definitely want an exhaust fan. The homebox has vents in the bottom so as long as you have an exhaust running then it pulls in fresh air. Also I would recommend the Homebox over any of the knock off versions. Alot of the other brands use PVC for the frame and when that mixes with heat it emits chemicals that are harmful to plants. I've never used a HPS light so i can't say how bad it would be without a fan but I know they get pretty hot. I would definitely get an inline fan for exhaust.

Yo here are some new pics of the plant. Bud sites are starting to form nicely. If you can tell, some of the leaves are starting to curl a lot, anyone know what that is??
The plant has stretched to around 2' 8" and still growing.. The root system is getting pretty crazy but for some reason the picture makes them look very brown.

[quote="SICC";2166280]Lookin good man, she is growing really fast, not too sure on the downward curling, ima look it up and see waht i can find[/quote]
Yeah even some of the big fan leaves are doing it. Some just curl straight under and some seem to curl on the sides of the leave as well. I figured it must be a nute issue or something

Yeah actually I have noticed that the leaves feel a little dry. Do you think it could have to do with the humidity level because mine is lower then what i've heard is optimal. I have the deluxe model and i keep it on the 24 hr light setting even though the lights are on their own chord for flowering. Do you know if the 24 hr setting keeps the pump on all the time, i think it does but not completely sure.

It might be moisture stress, you should try to get a little bit more humidity in there if you can and see if it helps, throw a warm, damp towel in there somewhere in a corner.
Yes the super-grow mode keeps everything on 24/7 and if you ag light is disconnected, its just the pump.
I also see that one of your AG cfl bulbs is out.
Plant looks like its coming along very nicely.
She is getting huge.. lol

yeah man, i was thinking that the humidity was a problem, i'll def do the wet towel. Do you know of any other more legit or like permanent things i can do to raise humidity.
Yeah that AG bulb has had problems since i put it in, it always flickers and shit. I'm gonna try one of the other bulbs in that socket to see if it is the bulb or socket and if it is the bulb then i gotta order some more.
