Hi Theowl, nice to see someone reading it. the box is roughly 4 foot high by 2 foot wide. I wanted something that is not too big so I can move it around easy. Good luck with yours, have you got a diary too? I mainly write here so I have some record of what I'm doing but I like to share so people...

yes I mean top them. They are about 3.5 weeks old now. I made a mistake, the biggest is 4 inchs high (not 6) and has 4 nodes. It is quite healthy and growing faster than the others by quite a bit, not sure why. I might top that one soon and wait for the others to get bigger.

I have a CFL grow box that is about 5 feet high and I want to know what is the best time to take the middle tip out? There are 6 seedlings, the largest is about 6 inches high now.

Today I put my new box together finally and moved the seedlings into it. There are 2 x output 120" fans at the top and 2 x small fans for blowing air. These are pc fans powered by a 12v adapter. I have 2 x passive inlet holes at the bottom of the box and I will glue some filter material onto...

ok well it has been about 3-4 days since I potted the seedlings from the jiffy pots. They are doing fine. There is no fan or ventilation in my current temporary cardboard seedling box besides a couple of handle holes and the lid opening. So they have been on around 82 to 90 for the box...

hey methias, your plant looks super healthy in that first pic. Nice color, leaves and stems look strong. Yea I will have to flush them too at the end. I just went that mix I have as I wrote in last post. The seedling mix is made for plants that need a lot of watering so it must have some moss...

Well, don't all rush in and reply :) I bought a couple of small bags of Seed Raising Mix, 1 X bag of Perlite & 1 X bag of vermiculite today to transplant my seedling into some pots using a mix of all these. Do you think they will be ok in a mix of this or should I also get hold of some...

hey, how are you all! Some of you might remember my first attempt last year I had 3 bag seeds so I carefully grew a bunch of plants to get some weed to smoke and to have some seed for the future. Well I managed to do both, I have a nice little jar of seeds and I just came back from overseas and...

I'm happy to report I have had constant smoke and I have been smoking the smaller buds for over a month. Now they are getting bigger and stonger. I had a few seed but that is ok as I can now store the seeds for when I need more baby's. From 3 bag seeds to now a constant supply of my own smoke...

thanks for the ideas, I will get some zinc now and see if it improves them. I'm pretty sure there is no males with my plants, probably just a mix of light, nutes and stress.

hi, it was just a pin prick and only very tiny filtered light so it didn't brighten the room up or anything. It was a long the edge where two wall ply boards meet and it wasn't nailed down tight.

thanks for the feedback and ideas everyone. I have blocked out the light source. Here a some pics to see what I mean, let me know what you think!

no one wants to help, what has happened to this place?

I tracked the light source coming in and covered it. Will this turn the plants back to full female?

Hello, I'm noticing that there are what appears to be young seeds on my buds. These are mostly all clones from a female so I guess they have gone hermie from some light leaking in etc? The room is blocked off from all light ( i have a closet as in my sig link) but there maybe be a tiny...
