Here they are, 1 month in the home made Hydro System, to the bottom right of the pic are 2 clones, in addition to the lil 70 watt Metal Halide i have two 4 foot GE Daylight Floro's. i just have it lifted up out of the way for the pic. I also noticed very small growths comming up at the nodes, the start of pre flowers, still too small to tell what sex the 4 plants are, but the growth seem to be pointed and not rounded.

Thies plants have undergone LST.

Your comments and suggestions please?

Those look dam healthy @@

What ever you are doing keep it up! With the amount of light you have I read you might want to be really careful about overwatering since not quite as much evaporation. Now I let my plants get bone dry, but right before a wilt - then I bottom water 1 quart of water per gallon of soil. ( 6 under 2000 watts )

But very nice color, I am jelous!!! I have always ran a bit yellow due to a PH problem from what I can understand so far.

Ps, Make sure you get a red spectrum for budding, I hear good things about T5 grow lights / fixtures and "HPS" is what I use

Careful with online purchases for lights. Very hard to get a replacement if somthing breaks, and I know for sure - " you get what you pay for " with lights.


I would look into going to a local grow shot and finding out the median price on theirs and compare it. Also compare types of bulb ect..

Thanks, but i have done the research, trust me, the place i will be buying from is very reputable, i have called befor and talked to them, they ave been selling on e-bay for 5 years now, a power seller account and huge amount of good feedback, Invintory and rep points they are 100 % honest and legit. I do go to my local Hydroponic shop called the gardeners edge to get my supplys, everything but lights and ballasts they are oeverpriced., the bulbs arent too bad of a price but the ballasts are way over priced, i used to be a Consumer Products researcher so i know how to find the best deals and prices. :thumbsup:
