CFL grow in a smal grow box

Yeah, like High said, you gotta keep temps down. I didn't realized just how important it was my first time around-----now I know! Go to a store like walmart or home depot and get a cheap temp/humidity gauge. Mine cost me seven or eight bucks.

Then you can start to really "dial-in" your environment.

Thanks A LOT for the replies...i think that was the one thing ive been overlooking... will possibly be getting some duct work goin. thanks again

well ive been trying to get the plants to stretch by pullin the cfls up more, but its not too effective. its goin on its 6th shoot and is about 4.5 inches tall. Theres only about a half an inch inbetween the nodes.

--ps i do have her tied down, and am goin for the circle around the pot :P

starting Grow Big and Big Bloom nutes tonight, and will start tiger bloom in a couple weeks when flowering. new pics on friday :)

this is kind of like mine...

MY GROW

alright well i have some picture updates: she is growing very short and bushy, at only about 3-4 in tall. what yall think?

the second pic is where i tried to get a shot at her stem, but the node sites are filling it up with leaves.

**the burn spots are not from nutes, but from the 2 cfls that fell on top of them :P

nice man i hope they stay bushy! alot of light up close prevents tall growth... at least thats what works for me... Am I right??

ya, but i think its controlled the height growth a little too much.. the nodes are very close and doesnt seem to stretch any. by the time i make it around the pot it'll have like 48 nodes! will take another month it seems..

Well, there is one other option....once you start flowering her, she'll definitely put on at least a little stretch. Everything I've grown stretches pretty hard at the beginning of flower. But I don't grow many indicas. Sativa dominants are my mainstay. So I really can't say what indica dominant plants will do. I've read they stretch as well. Seems all cannabis does it to "some" degree.

so could i start flowering and continue to lst? she's at about a month and a week (5 weeks).
