The growth is retarded! lol I have to flower before friday or else they will definatly get too big for the cabinet. The most recently LST'd plant is going to grow so much bud if its female... there will be like 8 main colas by the looks of it
I went and screwed my comp up so I am using my parents' right now so I cant put up any pics until mines fixed in the morning..!

One week into flowering! Check out the canopy on my biggest plant! Its going to have like 8 MAIN colas... also ONE plant that I topped ended up with THREE tops instead of two which I thought was cool because I topped it a little differently...

Not many people checking my grow.. wtf lol... I almost jizz myself every time I open the cabinet... check out these canopy shots I just took!!
Beautiful plants token :-) I'm a big fan of the NL, grown it many times over last 12 years, those are going to be very good, I can see that. Once you get some buds the thread will pick up! I think we all love the bud shots :-)

Definatly possible.. Since I started growing I have been skeptical about the rules of lights and wattage... but as far as I am concerned there is NO SET AMOUNT it all depends on conditions!

My biggest healthiest plant is FEMALE! I seen tonight the absolut earliest pistils my eyes could ever see... but bad news.. I am pretty sure my other LST'd plant is a male. :( At least the female is going to have 8 MAIN colas! :hump: First pic is the female!

Token, how do you rig up those small fans like that? I went by Fry's today and since I'm not such an electrician at all, I looked for any mini fans I could find that plug into the wall, but no luck. I could only find the small cpu fans like the one in your pictures, which I wouldn't mind using if I knew who to rig that up. Care to explain? +rep thanks

There is a red and a black wire coming from the fans.. red is positive and black is negative. The fans require DC power 12 volts to be exact but your outlets in your house put out AC power... which is why you can use any adapter that plugs into your wall for a cell phone etc... just read on it and make sure it says AC to DC... it doesn't have to be 12 volts if you use say a 9 volt adapter the fans will just be a little quieter from lack of power.. all you have to do is match + and - and use electrical tape... sorry if this isnt detailed enough Im pretty high lol

This part confused me a little...what exactly do I tape the wires to? An AC to DC adapter? And then this adapter plugs into the wall?

Haha, you have to take the AC DC adapter and cut off the plug that would normally plug into whatever device.. you then strip these two wires as well as the two wires from the fan and use electrical tape to tape the connections together.. match + and -
