:thankyou:

 
wow awsome looking grow for such a small space. only just found the thread. sorry if i've missed this but how are you going for smell? i did a small poor mans grow with the fluro's. had the land lord come in for inspection and they were standing right next to the grow. (was under a fish tank and they were looking at the fish) and they noticed nothing. but i had sprayed shitloads of deoderizer around to cover it up.

really well done. will be keeping a close eye on this now.
 
^5 DFW-Guy. They are looking very good bro. A friend said you can figure 1watt=1gram on lighting. The way I figure, light is the energy that drives the photosynthesis engine. Energy is never used up, it is only converted from one form to another. Kinectic to potential, and vice versa. Keep it up bro, you gonna be smokin on some pretty buds soon!

very nice... hows the under buddage look? might help to pinch a few leaves to allow better light flow

There isn't much but fan leaves underneath, and those are falling off so it's somewhat clear down there. There are so many leaves that I'd rather have them all absorb light than to cut healthy ones for small undergrowth.

I have a DYI carbon filter that the exhaust passes threw. Landlord inspection? Well I sure hope the grow is done if I ever get inspected. Thanks for the compliments

With CFL's I'm expecting no more than .5gram per watt, which amounts to 1.3oz. If I pull 1.25 oz I'll be a happy man.

Thank you

The girls must have loved only drinking h2o last night as today I found they were growing into the lights. No bad damage, just a few small burn spots on some small fan leaves.

Here's new pics of my box to answer some questions and interests.

This grow wouldn't be possible without ducttape
 
I'm glad everyone agrees duct tape is awesome.
Today is flower day 21, Now entering the 3rd week of flowering ;)
They grew another inch last night, and buds are getting larger. Anyone have an estimate of when the growing will stop? Will it ever? I only have 4 or 5 inches of grow height left before I would have to make the box bigger.
 
it looks like your ladies are sativa domonite..so they may strench out fo quite some time.Sativa can some times triple in size when it come to the streching part of flowering.but you've done a great job of L.S.T'n the ladies so you should'nt have a problem.plus hell thiers always more box's and wonderful duct tape.
 
Yup, more boxes there are. Here's a crappy cell phone pic of what they look like, taken 5 min ago. I like that I have 12 top bud sites ;) They're all within 1 inch of each other height wise, they seem to be self regulating.

Looking great man! If you dont mind me saying though... you should cut off about 4" or under groth at the bottom of the stem. It will alow your plants to concentrate more on getting power and nutes to the buds that need it most ontop. All the buds under the canopy will only be small and none developed. Canbt wait for the next set of pics. Good growing.
 
Well everyone, I did it. I got high and went to lowes. Found big boxes on sale for $1.50 each, did some quick math, and bought them. I've spent the past 2 hours making a new grow box, and I've completed a lot, but I'm not done. I ran out of duct tape, hence the stoppage as nearly everything is held together with it.
As you will see I made a side door. As you can also see, the doors open both ways, the reason for this is a cutting mistake I made. No real harm done. The real reason I went out was to find reinforcement so that I could make a door in my old small box, but making a new box altogether was cheaper. Simply making the old small box taller was not an option, I realized that my arms wouldn't be long enough to reach in and pull out my plants.
I got an emergency blanket to use as reflective siding, but I did not have time to cover the bottom half. The top half of the box is nearly complete, all I need is more duct tape to secure wires and seal air leaks.
Tell me what you think.

Looking good super job getting all tops same height will be nice harvest for sure :goodjob:
Far as the new box goes.....+ reps and results speak for them selfs
