Happy new year too!

Start oven at 320f EXACTLY. Take 2 bear paws cookies (molasses), spread nutella on each,then sprinkle some goods on them and close them like a sandwich. Put the sandwich in microwave at HIGH for 10 seconds. Then wrap the sandwich almost SEALED in aluminum foil. Put it in the oven, middle row. for 22 minutes!!! not 23 nor 21.

Then put them in microwave for a "cooldown" 10 sec. at HIGH. Happy trip!

I took some stuff of last years grow, and made myself those cookies in november, they were a blast!!!

:thumbsup::thumbsup:

What are your lights? cfls? if so try to put them closer to your plants and buds!

Genetic can be a factor too, I don't know!

hey MB just a quick question man...
arnt your cfl's a bit far from the plant bro?? obviously it is doing fine but it seems like ppl here think 2-3" is the max depth for light to penetrate for a CFL... those look more like 6-8"???
and nice red one i am looking for some of those but no luck so far..

I had wondered the same thing, But they really were not all that close from the get go. Yeah they were closer in the beginning, but i think hes battling the heat issue when his door is closed. Just a guess, but i was right about him not being a big smoker. You and i would have flowered that puppy at 21-30 days, you know it, lol:jointsmile:

If I move the plant closer to the lights on the right, some leaves will touch some lights on the other wall, and vice versa. And I can't move the lights front and back, I can only move them sideways, they are on a clothes pole.

I've pulled some of the lower branches out of the plant, this gives me more light in the center of the plant, but i cannot put the plant as near tot he lights as i want to.

Anyway it's doin great, but maybe I will find a way to place the lights in a way the don't burn the plants leaves.

:thumbsup:

Flash forward a few months and MB has a new state of the art commercial greenhouse with all the bells and whistles! All others quit growing out of shame and look to him for medicine and the meaning of life. Ok so I didn't take my meds this morning...... Looks good MB it has to be the 13w red light I am sure of it lol.:thumbsup:

Even if I put the plant far away from the plant, if it's 90f in there, it will be 90f!

Temps are ok.

highs are ~88f, daytime with door open ~80f, nightime ~ 68f

Just my :twocents: but wouldn't lowering that fan help a bit with the heat ?
It looks like its blowing over the top only in my opinion and a couple lights..
But she still looks great too ! :jointsmile:

Air is moving everywhere in the closet, and I don't want to blow directly on the plant. Anyway, I don't have any other place to put it!! I barely fit in the closet!

But I finally managed to move the plant closer to the lights! Removed some stories of foam under the plant to lower it, lowered the top lights, and voila! Lights in the sides are closer! And it lights more of the biggest buds, so it will make them bigger!

Edit: plant has grown 1" in 4 days, so it won't be as tall as i planned! Goood! I want it obese! Not tall!
