Bummer dude. Were they out in plain view or did he snoop around for them?

I didnt do a good enough job concealing the light

What the hell was he doing in your house anyway. Even though he's the land lord isnt that still like trespassing?

[whatsthatsmell]

depending on where he lives, each state has their own laws, however, if it is written in the lease that the landlord can enter the premise without prior notice then theres nothing he can do. Most complex's will have it in the lease that they will notify 24 hours in advance, but thats more of a common curt thing than anything else. The landlords to have the excuse of "it was an emergency due to XYZ was broken and/or needed to be changed" so kinda screwed, but thats part of renting as opposed to buying your own house.

damn thatd a kcik in the nuts.
thats why you have a growing partner. so he can take care of them for a bit if shit goes down.

Hi!! Im back, with a good story.

3 months ago I was forced to give up my plants. I had one friend who had the means to set up a growing space, but he was being a sissy about it.he had 2 plants he was growing on his windowsill already. They were getting about 2-3 hours of sunlight so he supplemented that with a few hours under a 12 watt fluorescent. You can guess how that was going. Anyway, I couldnt stand to throw my plants away, so I brought them to his house where they suffered from the poor lighting. For some reason he wouldnt let me bring my lights over for a month, then he finally gave in.

So we finally grew them under 6 48" cool white tubes for 2 months at 18/6. They took almost a month to recover from their poor living condions, then in thelast month and a half theyve been growing somewhat healthy.

They now live in a crawlspace thats pretty similar to the one they originally lived in, 4x2x3.5 We just took them out into the kitchen for yearbook pics.
There are 5 healthy plants and 2 that are a waste. The 5 good ones are taking up about half of the available grow space right now so we've decided to switch the lighting to 12/12, along with that switch, a slight change in the lighting configuration. I now have 4 48" 2700k fluoros centered overhead and 2 48" cool white fluoros on each side of them. I hear that the cool white end of the spectrum promotes bushyness, so I put those bulbs where they'd get to the lower branches, and the warmer bulbs on the top.

i veg with 4000k cool whites now and iv never had plants as bush as i do these days.

I see you are using the good old Home Depot t-12 shop lights, Can't go wrong with the price $16.00 each including bulbs. I use them for my cloans and nursery.

Yeh I would say they are ready to flower good luck and keep posting

Glad to see this thread is back up and running. Great job on those plants dude. Keep up the good work.

7 days into flowering

One of the unhealthy plants really came back to life after the lighting switch, so the number went back up to 6
We confirmed 2 of them to be males and cut them, one of the healthiest ones too, of course. Down to 4
Also confirmed 2 are females, and the other 2 im not sure yet. I'll have a chance to check again in a couple days.
