lookin real good. what lighting are you using? start nutes yet?
I'm using 8 23 watt 6500 CFL's in my veg box. I have a 600 HPS with cool tube to flower with, and a DR120 on the way in a couple days. The box is real nice for veg. Stays 77 degrees. The 4" exhaust fan with 3 ea 4" intake holes at the bottom of the box do a nice job of ventilation.

The plants are in Miracle Grow Moisture Control, just as a test run. I will be using 45% Canadian Sphagnum Moss, 30% Worm Castings, 25% Perlite, and Dolomite Lime (2tbls per gallon of medium) for future grows, as the the time release nutes are tough to deal with.

Those are looking real nice! Are they a real strain or bag seed?
Bagseed. I've taken the "A shade leaf on the main stalk is the enemy" mentality for this grow. As soon as the main top new leaves start to spread and create shade, they get the axe! The branches love me. :)

So you're actually topping it every time a shade spot appears? Sounds like you're in screen territory.

Not topping it, just taking the new shade leaves at the top when they start to get big, and when the new branch leaves at that node start to form, the shade leaves are cut.

I have not cut a top off any of these plants, and the tallest one is 5" tall at 28 days from dry seed.
