This is my first grow, and I'm doing it DWC bubbler style. I have a grow log but thought I'd share this with you separately. I did not think it was humanly possible for my plants to go from A --> B in this amount of time. I took the first set of pics on 7/3/08 and just took the second set right now, 5 days later, 7/8/08. The only thing that has changed is that I topped the plants right after taking the first pictures and I've been LSTing for about a week. I topped the main stem and any side branches that were receiving direct light (1000W HPS). My first attempt at topping, I tried to FIM the main stems but I think I actually cut too far down the bud and as a result regular topped them instead. These unsexed plants are from Hawaiian (Maui Wowie it appears) and Master Kush parents. Anyone else think it's odd that none of these plants are showing pre-flowers yet? I know what I'm looking for, and still the only things in the node area are the stipules. I plan on switching from 24/0 to 12/12 in another 5 days on Sunday.

What they look like now!

Can't be sure from the pics but it appears that you have alot of unnessacary ducting there, shorten it up and remove any unnessacary bends while your at it, plants look great.

^the extra bends in the ducting are for security purposes - otherwise, bright light pours out the window

thanks for the support!

Hay nice grow. Just to let you no all the slack in your flex duckett if you shorten it up and git all that slack out of it. You will git better air flow and increase your cfm keep the light cooler to. Just a thought.
