Don't forget they grow tall in flower mode too !! Thats gonna be one tall pot plant !! You may need a ladder to get those top colas !! :yummy: Hope your feelin better C5 !
 
starting over, quickly and efficiently, is the best feelin. plants vegging fast are really fun to sit and watch. these are 26-30" inch already

Yeah, I gotta say they will get a lot taller. I let mine veg for 5 weeks, they were over 30" tall, not at 6 weeks flower they are over 56" tall, too damn tall for my space. Luckily I have the head room, but I do use a 2' step ladder to get a good look at the colas! At that height the lamp shines right in my eyes when I open the closet! I really feel that for the size of my grow room I should have flowered them earlier. Always learning! And as you say, I've got 5 more in veg right now, 1 week in the res.

I learned to wear sunglasses and a baseball cap with a visor to protect my eyes in my grow room.
 
I think I got a sunburn when I was playing around too much with my plants !! I'm really going crazy here it's been raining for days and not much to do ! If I start smoking this early it seems to make the day go on for ever ! I've been doing laps at Home Depot just for fun looking for new ideas in lighting! I was looking for some goodies to try to make a light fixture simular to FryingPanFlyers , I think I need to go back and check out his pics of it..Hell it's 10 time for a coffee break and might as well toke up too...BRB..:peace:

Would you like a parts list? I'm sure you could figure it out, but probably not if you're too high!
 
I was wandering around HD this morning looking at parts ,did you say you put the sockets into 1 1/4 " T and it seems you'd have to either tape it a bit to get a tight fit !? What was the ballpark figure for parts minus bulbs ? If you could sir.. I've got plenty of bulbs and Y splitters, so I may just rig something with them , but I'm f'n board out of my mind . Thats why I thought of doing this. Maybe I'll just get high and watch cartoons :loopy:

I saw some 65 watt CFLs at Lowes last week for $9.95 each, but they had mogul sockets. Regualar size sockets were $16.95.
 
Thats a nice friendly price !! I've paid more for the 42s ! (small town) :peace:

Have you ever smoked one, got high and spent like an hour just fooling with them, looking at them, and then went back in the dimly lite living room to discover you was half blinded by the lights and can't see anything?

My sockets friction fit into the 1 1/4" tees. They were wrapped in rubber which helped them stabilize in the tee, no tape needed. But I doubt you'll find the same sockets I did, I know MataGrowa used the 1" pvc since the sockets he found fit that size best, he then used tape for the final fit.
