I basically used 1.5 gallon pots for last transplant, and I wish I would have went to 2-3 gallon and have less plants, oh and as far as the height not really sure but I would say about two ft before light flip. I did not veg the clones in my current round and the yield looks like crap. And I didn't use enough good soil as I did in the first round. The nutes in the soil were way gone by flower and I was slow to react to that and nute lock from ph issues. Yellow leaves by third week of flower not cool at all, it is starting to look like a leper colony in that box. Live and learn I did stuff that I would normally not do and I am getting the results of that,,,oh well this fall and winter and spring will make up for it. Still trying to find good seeds that can border hope safely...

Yo Frosted, you said 2 of ur ladies turned on ya right.? Were they included in i final weight.? A nd do you think you would have double it if you had em in 3-4 gal.s.??

Here is a snap or two of the second round. Did many things wrong like trying to reuse last cycles soil and just adding to it. I did let the ph get way out of control and had nute lock pretty bad and it looked like a leper colony with my girls losing most of their leaves. But on the positive side I let them grow about ten wks in flower and then chopped em. I am guessing yield is around the same as last time even with the issues i created for myself. The indica plants really got dense and yummy tho and it wasn't a complete waste but I am learning all the time...

nice

Made a cabinet (i suck at using tools) that is about 4x30''dx4h. I was thinking after I built it to go higher which I could by unscrewing top and adding an extension, was thinking 1.5ft higher so I dont have to worry too much about stretch and not having any exp lst or other styles of small grow.

I am using a 4'' inline duct fan pushing fresh air thru the hood and out the box. I am also using 6'' inline duct fan pushing air out and trying for a passive system in the gen box area. Purchased some FFOS and some of their other nutes like tiger bloom and open sesame . I plan on using a cabinet that was premade for a small clone/veg area after this is online and up to speed as to try for perp grow. Here are the start pics kinda crappy but will do more when motivated, also I did over water the plants in this pic kinda droopy and only a week or so old.

I keep thinking of things to add like I am in a very cold climate its three wks till spring and by me using my basement for grow box spot its kinda hard to add heat when the light is off so I am using cfl one has an output of over 360watts and then one that is 200watts, just so I can run almost 18-20hrs without over heating. If I run my 400hps I figured I wouldn't have the best veg cycle,,bad idea or safe bet by adding cfls?

Everything I say one of my voices in my head madeup and I rarely listen to them you shouldn't either,,,all farce

nice and clean set up:thumbsup:

Thanks! That herb sucked compared to outdoors stuff I have had luck with. The box was nice but I did add the extra height and is the current box I have going.
