It is a shower. It's really only in about half of the bathroom, they are quickly running out of space. & as of now the lighting hood is about 2-3 inches above the tallest plant. Many will come down when I sex them over the next couple weeks.

Thanks for the good words & for stoppin by.

Your garden needs a 250 or 400w hps system. Those babies would go nutz. in a good way. :)
Goodlooking plants! Keep it up!

I hear you pass, I'm workin on it man. I am ballin on a seriously low budget here so I'm just tryin to get what I can get & hope for the best. I may have to wait until 2-4 weeks into flowering b4 I can afford one.

I started flowering on a 12/12 cycle with a basic $5 timer. Added for now 4 x 42 watt 2700k cfls & 7 x 13 watt 2700k along with 2 x 25 watt 3500k cfl tubes. Will be adding more lighting, both CFL & HPS.

Also had a couple casualties while sealing off the window from light, snapped a lower bud site & a fan leaf off on one of the diesels & managed to bend my biggest bagseed indica real bad just below the node that splits off into the two main topped colas. Pisses me off cuz that was one of my favorite plants, just looked so healthy. I duct taped it, & it's standing up, but the top of the plant wilted badly. Hope it bounces back, I hear they do in a few days. Fan needed to be running higher, it is now. I don't think they are strong enough to support big buds without being reinforced somehow, they shouldn't have broken/bent that easily, but I need to be nicer to them too. Then again that process won't have to happen again tho, so I'm moving forward optimistically. There's a lot of bud sites in the room.

Also gave them a half strength shot of schultz 10-15-10 & they seemed to love it. The big white widow especially got super green within a couple hours of watering with it. Will be getting liquid bone meal as well. Only gonna use the schultz one more time, full strength, after I see buds really starting to form about 3-4 weeks in.

On a side note I'm still waiting on the co2 & not sure exactly how that's gonna work out since that's a hook up through my girl's dad & she hates me right now. :D lol It's all good. I'll get it. ;)

Any advice or comments are always appreciated.

Ok 3 days into flowering not too much goin on other than some stretching I could do without. Had a slight bug problem pop up, little gnats or flies, sprayed everything down with organic neem oil, hopefully that does the trick.

Looking to add HPS & CO2 soon, please stay tuned. I also think one of the diesels is showing balls already, but I couldnt get a good pic. I'll mess around with the macro settings on the cam next time around, I didn't have a lot of time.

Pics are as follows. The 50 watt 3500k light. HPIM1731.jpg The whole garden shot. HPIM1727.jpg The big white widow. HPIM1726.jpg The 2 biggest diesels. HPIM1732.jpg The top of the of big trainwreck. HPIM1729.jpgThe top of the biggest bagseed that I smashed last time that seems to be recovering ok. HPIM1733.jpgThe stressed out diesel bucket. HPIM1725.jpgThe 2 green ones stink! The yellow one just won't grow. It will die horribly next time I see it. :D

Ok, so these aren't pics of my grow, those will be coming tomorrow. However, since I wanted to mess around with the macro settings on my camera, this is what the New York City Diesel will look like when finished. The taste is very chemically with hawaiian overtones that I always seem to pick up on the front end of the exhale. The odor is powerful & citrus/diesel/skunky smelling & it burns like hash, the smoke comes off a lit cherry very thick & oily. HPIM1737.jpgHPIM1738.jpgHPIM1740.jpg

Hope you guys enjoy.
