Hey I Got Pictures!

that's funny, when I go into HD and ask for a 4" inline fan, I am asked what it's for too, as for the light bulbs I always get weird looks when i walk out of there with a cart load of stuff, usually I buy my hardware at one HD then head into Wallyworld, then either Lowes or Target. it can make for tricky dickies. But hey, hydro stores aren't cheap.

You need another fan in there. What are your temps?

I wondered if you have any sort of intake or extraction in that setup, did not see a fan, would get them lights much closer, they are stretching for the light and the nodes of the plant will stretch also causing less inter nodes and the plant as a result will produce less, not o mention light ratio decreases dramatically on distance.

i've got three running as of now. is there perhaps a mini ac i could put in there?

*UPDATE*

You can really tell the ak apart from the three white widows


That red fan has another fan inside and it surprisingly works twice as good...other hole has a fan blowing out of the box


just some more pics... I raised the plants closer to the light and changed the lighting set up.. they could be raised more.. but i ran out of cds.. have to find something that fits nicely

bit of drooping i suppose.. i've stopped feeding and slowed down on the watering.. hopefully they'll get better soon enough

They look great. When I say you need to get another fan, I really think you need another exhaust fan if you are still having trouble with heat. I am not sure that one is sufficient for your set-up.

Well i've managed to fix the heat problem a bit.. in the mean time i may order a better pc fan with a heat sink installed.. have any opinions on those?.. and also how would you connect that onto an adaptor?

i fixed it. drilled out a bigger hole and i have two 4.5 inch computer fans stacked blowing air out.. now it gets lower than i've ever had it... 25 celsius which is perfect

good grow i use to grow like this but i needed wieght and quantity i swithched slowly from cfls to a 400 switchable mh and hps. them a crop later bought a 600 hps for flowering. now my set up is rolling! i am very impressed with your set up mine was not as organized. keep up the good work!

thanks! this is pretty much my first grow and i've been improving along the way. .. a lot more work then i thought when i began this grow op haha. i'm planning on using some mh and hps.. maybe a 250watt. how much hotter did your grow box get from switching to a 400 watt?

Failed attempt at training.. oh well hah. the two white widows in the back seem a bit behind.. but i suppose it's no big deal



getting a 250 watt pretty soon for flowering stage.

substantial growth from exactly 14 days ago when i began this thread!

Is that light coming out of the bottom?

trust you to be looking at his bottom to start with...

UPDATE!

Plants are doing great. Some are unfortunately getting burned.. hopefully they stop growing and start producing bud now.. 1st day of flowering with a 250watt hps.. the front right plant has leaves that are a bit skimp.. how do i fix that?

Plants stretch in the first two weeks, so if your out of space already it seems like you'd better start bending them over.

UPDATE

moved them to a bigger cabinet so i'm hoping for some improvement .. when will i see them start to bud?
