Just got a crazy deal on a 4 pack of 23w 2700k cfls 2 bucks so those are going in on flower. So that puts me at 304w of cfl and 20,200 lumens I think this wil work nicely lol

[Baxterwolfe]

Swapped in my 2 big 42w 2700k bulbs should be all swapped to 2700k within the next 2 weeks and running flower nutes

 

[slayer44]

How hot does in get in there? Seems like that plastic might be getting pretty hot?

 

[Baxterwolfe]

Stays in the 70s all sealed up and the plastic is barely warm to the touch there is ventilation holes around each of the sockets and I have a small tornado fan as well.

 

[slayer44]

[Baxterwolfe]

Swapped out 2 more veg bulbs for 2700k So now Im at 6 2700k bulbs and 4 6500k bulbs when she hits 5 weeks about 4 more days I will swap to all 2700k and then just wait for growth to slow and then flowering nutes can get added.

[Baxterwolfe]

5 weeks old today and she is really climbing

Once she is about 2 weeks old is when you will want to start pony tailing and you can start doing your LST as well.

Once she looks about like this is when you should start your pony tail

This is what it will look like pony tailed you just want to take the upper set of fan leaves and fold them up and secure them gently. Then make sure the undergrowth has a lot of light. 6 hours a day every other day for about 2 weeks

After a couple sessions it should start to look like this

Perfect example bax.... just a small note that it works very well MOST of the times... I have had a few that just do not have the structure to train well...

When it looks like a salad when your done.... your doing it right lol


And don't forget to tuck those large fans

 

[Baxterwolfe]

36 days old and growth is explosive and looks like she is starting to transistion from preflower
