Sorry, hope I wasn't out of line here. I had that prompted to go hours ago but forgot to hit "Post".

Actually, about an hour ago right after I responded to Spitz, I got down there and did some bending.
Fear keeps you from doing things folks. Fear, in this case is a good thing. These stems are very rigid even at the tops. I'll get there eventually. Jim

Grow here for a while. This raucous group of stoners will have you practicing things you never dreamed of. Fear eventually gives up and goes home.

The girls got their 1/2 strength nutes again today. The white on soil is diatomaceous earth or perlite. DE is used for the fungus gnats. I'm still working on spacing of branches from below. It's not going to be perfect.

It doesn't have to be perfect. Give it your best and you will succeed.

Added another CFL at bottom. Today I'll engineer something to properly support it down there.

Looking nice! Are you still feeding them? They look a little hungry, but it could be the lighting.

Hi Jojo....they'll get fed again tomorrow morning. I can't lift pots with screen so I'm just going with previous data and looks of leaves.

The girls got a good feeding after pictures were taken. There was significant early runoff so now I know that the pots weren't completely dry at the root zone. Oh well, Ill suck up the excess with a turkey baster.
I'll do some manicuring in the bottom today so that any productive leaves will benefit from the CFL I installed below the screen. The whole shooting match will go into 12/12 sometime soon. I'm thinking roughly day 70 but we shall see. Next feeding will include some Bloom in any event....I think.
I'm hoping the deficiencies noted will be helped by the feeding today. Color should improve but the 1 gal pots restrict this grow. The cabinet size restricts this grow.

Nice setup though for such a small space jim! 
You will figure out whats the best setup and plant variety once you do a few grows, try not to stress about how small your space is 
You will figure out whats the best setup and plant variety once you do a few grows, try not to stress about how small your space is If you are thinking of flipping soon, I'd think about potting up. those are small pots for 60 days of veg and 60ish days of flower. Your call... You may have to make a modification to your screen height, but, you've proven yourself more than "handy". You can flower them "as is" but you'll have to be diligent in your water to runoff, flushing, and feeding. Life may be easier with a bigger root zone. Tough with height constraints, but I think it's worth a go. Just my opinion. Looking great MJ!!!

Excellent advice Night4wings20. I really don't stress much and it's apparent by looks of the bottoms of those plants. Just bag seed and they could turn out to be males...I laugh at times.

Slightly concerned with color. Nutrients are probably being locked out. Jim

They do look hungry jim.

Yep, I'd say they are hungry is all. They are yellowing/discoloring from the bottom up, showing they are using old nutrients for old growth. Or at least that's my opinion. It's always better to underfeed than overfeed though!

What kind of lights are you using? Cfl? You may need to exhaust the heat with a fan.....im using an inline hurricane fan with a 400 watt hps. My tent runs 80 degrees f. I exhaust it for 1 hour afterwards to hopefully prevent mold from humidity. Hope this helps.
