i love learning experiences :)

Plants are looking happy. They must be getting what they need:thumbsup:

I'm a beginner myself so I don't have many answers. But I can tell you that it's ok to run cfl's on a timer. Just don't exceed the timer's watt rating. You're not supposed to use a dimmer with them though. Of course, us growers have no need for a dimmer anyway.

Do you have plans to LST? Or are you gonna rig up a way to raise the lights? Cant wait to see how this turns out...

rock on..http://jira.atlassian.com/secure/att...3/macgyver.gif

i cant wait either, im running blindly with absolutely no experience in gardening and getting new ideas every day. i do plan to lst at least one plant and top at least one. and id like to try to turn one into a bonsai, don't care too much about getting males or a poor yield, like i said, this is a learning experience. my next grow definitely wont be bagseed and i'll definitely have a plan.

i added some lights and a few of them are looking a bit yellow, other wise everything is looking good. i plan on starting the lst in about a week.

i really need a camera, cell picks suck

I really like the lights on the outlet strip. I may have to borrow that idea for my next grow:D Keep an eye on that yellowing. I've been fighting that on my plants. Mine is caused by a low soil pH causing a nitrogen lockout (i think). Do you have anything to test the pH with?

i might, does yellowing stop plants from producing flowers? thanks its pretty much a 195w=760w 12800lumen light fixture that cost me 30 bucks to make.
