yup I did all that trim mist and cover! but I'm about to purchase a heat pad since I'm running 18/6 and I believe the temps drop a little more then I would like to inthe cab. so its common for the leaves to look reaaaaallly droopy? LOL cause thats what most of mine look like. oh and these cubes I hve , have coco compost in them I heard they are little better then rockwool. they come in a tray of like 50 for 15 bucks. thanks for ur input pharman
