Sorry it took so long to post the pics tonight. I've been doing housewife stuff as my wife went on a trip. I think I may have to go pick up two more 65 watters tommorrow. The plants seem to favor those over the 26 watters I have in there. That would give me 65 watts per plant for now...

Sorry for the double post. My blackberry said there was an error posting and it didn't show up that I had posted anything. I had looked into an air freshener but I have read mixed reviews about peoples end product smelling and tasting like whatever they had used to fight the original odor. I'd...

The strings are to show width so the bottom leaves will spread out. All four plants have reacted well to the three fans inside. I have been suprised by how fast the stem has bulked up. I need to start thinking about odor control as they have all started to be noticable. Thanks for the concern...

The string is there to hold the leaves down. I have 3 fans. The plants stand up just fine on their own. I put the strings on there so you could get the full effect of the growth. WW

Big change overnight and while I was at work. Tested the pots to see if they felt heavy or lite and I decided to water and feed them a little. At what time should I start to think about topping them? Here's some pics. WW

I haven't updated in a few days now. I felt like everyday I needed to do something so I ended up overwatering all of the plants. At least that is why I think the leaves are drooping, but they are all starting to purk back up. I finally found my digital camera's cable so I have better pictures...

Ok here's and update. I wanted to wait until the girls (hopefully) woke up from the shock I put them in yesterday from the transplant. I fed them for the first time tongiht. 1/4 strength Fox Farm Grow Big. Added two 4 inch fans to move some air around so the stems get thicker. Also added...

Picked up 4 1 gallon pots today, some ocean forest soil, and some perlite. Have a 60/40 mix going on and transplanted the 4 plants. I was so nervous at work today because I thought they were going to die after the transplant but all is good. I also picked up some mylar for the walls and took...

not sure about what size pot...any suggestions? I don't have very much room in there. I'm also getting ready to only have 3 plants inside the cabinet, so I was thinking maybe a gallon pot. Should I feed the grow big a few days after the ocean forest transplant. I've heard of alot of people...

Going to the hydro shop tommorrow to get some soil and maybe some nutes since mine haven't come in the mail yet. After 18 hours under those cfls the plants have definately grown. Heres an update. WW

No plant pics today. But I did buy two 65 watt cfls to go in the cabinet. Its running alot cooler now and the light difference is amazing. Not to mention how much space got freed up. I am going to have to get a smaller fan now but for the next couple days I should be ok. Here's a before and...

Wink - I was thinking that the heat would be a problem with that hps bulb, as I am getting some pretty high temps with the fluorescents already (I have to keep the door open while the lights are on right now until I get an exhaust fan installed). I'm gonna look a little tonight at some cfl...

Added a fan today. I also moved the lights about an inch and a half from the plants and they seem to not be stretching anymore. The leaves are getting bigger. Thanks for the input guys. Found a hydro shop in the next town over so I'm gonna go down there this week and pick up a good light. 400w...

This is my first grow. I started by using an old antique cabinet. Inside I have hung two 2 ft fluorscents with 2 daylight 20 watt bulbs in each. Lined the whole inside with heavy duty tinfoil (I know mylar would have been easier but I'm trying to keep this cheap). Total I have 12 plants in...
