The cages look awesome. There is nothing ghetto looking about your space. With light that intense, don't worry too much about damaging your plants. If those stretchers are anything like my last grow, you're gonna have to get aggressive. How much height were they putting on a day before you caged 'em?

Their resilience (again especially under ample lighting like that) is astonishing. I snapped many, many branches of my last stretchy bitches. Not LST by bending but a total snap that left the tops lying down at right angles. It wasn't pretty and I was afraid I fucked them up good, sap oozing everywhere. They just laughed off the damage, healed, turned semi-upright and grew huge buds.

thanks. no, no ac but 3 vortex 6" inlines (1 drawing from under the house...COOL air, 1 kicker b4 the air heads into my lights and one on a board on the wall exhausting outside) to keep my lights cool and u can put ur hand right on the glass after 24 hrs or continuous use. i have a heavy duty dehumidifier and a big(36") moutain air carbon filter attatched to an 8" vortex exhausting outside as well so that keeps things cool too. cooling isnt my prob though my climate is pretty cool and my grow is covered by trees so the room gets very little direct light. i have a bigger issue keeping the room warm enough in off cycles (shouldnt during the summer) im worried about winter.

What did I tell ya about the plant's ability to heal itself with that massive light of yours?

The tie / cage job is excellent. Couldn't have done it better myself. You seem like an old hand at this. I guess some people were just born to grow. Nice job, soldier.

thanks for the props guys...did i mention im a natural sciences major, natures kinda my thing and i really like the idea of playing god in a 10x12' space! i am def learning alot and ur right lordjin the plants r super resilient! at first i was afraid to really touch em but as the grow has progresses i really dont have a choice but to get "intimate" with the girls lol. they dont seem to mind much though. i went in and staked my cheeses and ak's yesterday (1 center stalk, 3 angled out per plant) ill post some pics tonight when the lights come back on. but heres the question.....my cheeses and ak's r about 2-2.5 ft right now and super full(day 16 of flower) so how much more vertical growth can i expect? ps my sd's have been getting frosty as shit! first to show sugar and they already look dank! thanks for lookin guys!

This set-up is awesome! Those plants seem to be more than happy :) How the hell did you guys afford this ($10-12,00), that's crazy for 2 students. Me and my room-mate are also first timers, and we thought our grow was expensive! Can't wait to see how that sour diesel finishes, it's fucking tasty stuff, one of my favourite strains. Looking good bro, sub'd and +rep.

Thanks and the room has been created by deployment money. Its funny to think if my wife hadn't been a whore and we were still together, I would be a cop right now. Now that I'm free, I decided school and investing in a room was the way to go.

Here's an updated pic after staking the AK's and Cheese's.

Dude that sucks. Nobody deserves those buds more than you. Get back from the military and your wife's cheating? rough.

Plants are looking lovely!
