First Grow will my setup work?

i didn't see hairs on mine until after almost 2 weeks of 12/12...you'll know when it happens, it's like a kid waking up one morning to see it snowing, it'll be noticable and very exciting moment

changed my box around so I have more height they really seem to be getting bigger quick

Think im just going to take that other 15w cool white out I can't stand uneven numbers :eek:

HEY!
Your plants are looking fine (I think :confused: )
Oh My! I hope my plants get that far, they're already 5 weeks and not so adult as yours.

Good Growing
:cool:

wooowww, your light setup is working very well, the nodes look really close together, your buds should be tight when you get to drying them

it wouldnt hurt to put the lights closer to your plants....the fluoros you have do not reach high temperatures and putting them closer gives the plants more intense light which will make them grow a little faster

the 3 tubs are connected to the wall and I'd be too much of a hasel to try to move them closer then move them back as the plants grow more. I'll just leave em there and adjust my 2 over head cfl lights which are closer to the plant about 2 inchs

you have enough lumens of light to not worry about them being so close...if you were growing with one or two lights, then you'd need to have them an inch or two from the plant, but you've got brightness coming from all directions, so i think they're doing great...they won't really grow faster with the light closer, the nodes will just grow closer together and it wont stretch so much, and the buds will end up being tighter...

watch CAREFULLY every day though, those leaves will reach up to the light to the point that they'll touch them, and those lights will burn the leaves even if they're not that hot...just don't let the leaves touch the lights, i did once and it burnt my leaves all to hell...

I agree w/ johnny you dont wanna over water. many growers do that they see there plants droppin so they water, they see em droopin more so they water it again, before they know it there plants curled over and died and they dont know why. DONT MAKE THAT MISTAKE!

also you said you turned off your fan cuz it was 70 or 80 in there. well you want that fan on cuz it circulates air. also try exhailing (talking to) on your plants its really good for em
