Ya I soon realized I placed them in wrong and I did very much luck out on my first few pots that they straightened up. Also noted and adjusted my lighting based on your comment and it's greatly appreciated.

have you checked the temps in the attic day/night? You might have to finish off that room or build a smaller one within, like a flowering room and then later a veg room or vice versa. I'm pretty sure Maryland gets cold this time of year so you'll need a heater if you want to have fast growth. at the least put up that plastic sheeting like finn said.
The temperatures do still drop down pretty low right now. The attic is fully insulated and we plan on enclosing a portion of the attic by hanging quilts from the rafters. It will kind of make a make shift room of which we can regulate the temperature a little easier. With a 400 watt HPS and quite a few CFLS we should be good. We have a thermometer and will be monitoring the temperatures, and if needed well get a space heater.


FYI: I say we because this is a team grow of a friend and mines.


Thanks for all yalls inputs!
