Oscar, my offer still stands. If you need mylar, give me each wall surface dimension you need covered with mylar I will cut some up and send it to you. It will be cheap to send, no worries. Up too you, I mean if you cant find it. Flat white paint works well too, but typically not on partical board.

no no , mylar should not be a problem , might be a little bit of a wait but I'll be getting it in . Have a little shopping list put together that I am gonna email to the store i deal threw , and see if we cant work out a deal as there is going to be a few bigger items on there . I thank you guys for the input on the mylar at the home improvement store , but i like to support the hydro store i go to . Good customer service , and all an all I can wait the month or 2 its no biggie .

Well the Veg room is not looking too good . The table i think is too high , and I cant get the plants any lower , and the plants don't seem to be drinking as much either . Getting a lot of yellowing , but it something I am willing to deal with until i cant open some room in the flower room . Thinking of maybe getting another 2 3x3 flood tables , I am really liking the White Botanicare ones , and am also thinking of just getting the tables , and the low profile reservoirs for em as well . I think that would be perfect for the flower room then I could recirculate the drip system .
Here is the picture for this post of the Veg room . Next post I will have everything organized by cut , right now its all organized by how much water they go threw , and closeness to the light .
I flipped the timer to 12/12 , and this will be their second day of 12 hour lighting . I don't know how these things are going to stretch in flower , but i don't want to end up screwing myself having no room for anything in the screen . Still feeding with the same regiment , and trying to keep the ph between 5.8-6.1

Well 6 days into flower , and so far things under the net seem a wee bit slower then usually . This is my first time working with any cheese plant , but I am pretty sure my plants are usually pre flowering alot harder at this point then they are now , but i could be just thinking that . Any who here are some pics for those of you who are following .
In the Veg/Clone room things are going good . There is explosive roots out the bottom of the solo cups , and in a few days I am going to top all of them to their shortest node . I ordered a Lush Dominator 2x to add to the flower room , and some Mylar . When this comes in a few of the plants from the Veg room are going into flower under the Led lights .
Here is things in the flower room as of right now
Actually taking a break from trimming up the lowers a little bit to right this , being hunched down for too long buggers my back . Next photo update i think I will try to get a little closer into the leaves with the camera . Here is a pic of the lady's legs . Do you guys figure its better to trim it all up in one or two go's , or should I do it threw many smaller shots .
I am going to start adding Sensizyme to the reservoir the next feeding , and I have also upped the drip timer now to go off every 60 mins for 4 mins . The drip emitters are 1GPH , and I am now monitoring to see if i end up seeing run off with this , and will adjust the time accordingly . I have never really been one to follow the rules on the bottles for the most part . I usually use the Grow or Bloom nute to adjust ppm to where i think i want it , and for the most part add my additives every few waterings as the bottle says but cut down to about 1/4 . I think I am now going to add desired amounts at about half rate , and see how the plants like that , even the grow and bloom .
Sorry for the Sideways Pics as well . Decided to use my new i phone to take the pics instead of the camera .

Yea It finally set in today on how much the screen is filling in while I was trimming them up
Thanks man , hoping it stays on cruise control as I have not run into any real problems minus lack of nutrients out of the gate .Looking good in here...i'm diggin the scrog
Here's an update for today . Not a whole 2 much happening
The veg room is once again going under thought . I have arranged the cups around so that the ones i am planning on putting into flower next are all directly under the ufo . I am still a little stuck on if I am going to get another one of these UFO's or if i should just get a single LED panel that will cover the whole table . I also need to drop the table down so that I have more over head room for the plants . I have 1 gallon gro bags to put them in , but i don't think I am going to have the vertical room. The reservoir is going to get drained , and scrubbed tomorrow . I am going to add a new run of nutrients , and see if the plants take off . I have roots sticking out the bottom of the cups , so I don't want to be pulling them out to see how circulated the roots are , but I can only imagine . I am going to try running my scissors to the outside of the root ball when transplanting as I have read this will help them out . Also have some AN powder tarantula that I will add to the dug out when transplanting . On another note I have also started to LST the plants that I am going to be moving to flower soon
In the Flower room I have been working on Defoliating , and trimming the bottoms up trying to get the energy to the top shoots . Tomorrow I think I may try to tuck some of the growth under the screen , but I think I might be alright to let them start growing vertical , and see how many tops I have . This strain seems to be liking what ever is thrown at it . Right now I fill the reservoir up with 10 gallon of nutrient water , Ph to 5.8 or close to , and let her go . I only throw some PH down at it when it crawls up to 6.5 , and she seems to be happy . No seen deficiency , haven't notices , any male flowers . This super cheese might be alright , Just gonna have to watch , and see how it stretches . You can also clearly see the stem crunching supercrop i did in these pictures as well
Great job sir. Lookin very proper

Well I was going to redo the nutrient mix in the reservoirs , but the flower rooms is almost empty so I figure I will just wait till tomorrow on this one , and and re think my plan on it for the night . I have the new Carb-o-load , and have never used it . I understand it is like molases , and it will provide the buds with more sugars . Does this mean that I should wait until they put on some bud weight before i start to toy with it ?
The Veg room on the other hand is getting the reservoir drained , scrubbed ,and then refilled . It has dropped to the point where it can no longer fill the table up , and cause the drain to siphon water . I am going to use the AN Sensi grow for the first time , and it will be the only grow nutrient i have used besides GH Floranova grow . I am hoping it makes a big diffrence , as it is a different nutrient , and no longer organic as well .
I have also been going threw some posts of Capn's and have seen his awesome PVC scrog . Seems to hold together a little better then mine (Okay alot better) , so I think I may start to adapt this after i see what the damage on the wallet is going to be for the hydro store to ship me my new toys . The newest Idea I have is to get the 3x3 for the flower room , and also use the other side to run 3 DWC buckets or Waterfarms . The waterfarms will be easier to get my hands on , as the DWC I am going to have to build myself with parts from the hydro store anyways

Hey Oscar it's all coming along so well! Looks like you will have 2 fully loaded rooms by Christmas! I was wondering though, I know you use an flood system but, why have you been keeping the veg plants in such small cups? Shouldn't they have something a little bigger to help develop their roots more before flower?
I'm kind of shocked at just how well that 180w ufo is doing. I have a little 90 guy myself and didn't realize I could get that much use out of it! I'm firing it up here this week for some clones so I'll be able to see first hand
Thanks for swinging by my thread!
