1st couple are how I attached my carbon filter. Then its my box/plant with their 4 new 23watt CFL. 2700k with 1600 lumens each. I like, we will see how she likes them.

Got some new pics with our new HPS light. ITs crazy how we found it, yard sale.........yeah I know, weird. We weren't even going to the yard sale, my buddy is a redelivery boy and on his route one day we passed a yard sale, I saw a sign "FLOOD LIGHT FOR SALE". We joked about it, haha we could get a grow light dude, drove by it slowly and saw it was an HPS light. $30. Not as powerful as I would want, its only a 50w, but it definitely helps. Heres the pix of my other crippled weird awesome super growth plant. ITs shitty but you can see the bushy-ness. I trimmed the bottom leaves off and the stem is about a 1/4" thick, I like it.

Hells yeah! If you go out looking for something specific at sales you may never find it but then you can get lucky!! 50w hps can really make a difference to your girls. I recently bought two whole light setup ballast/cord/bulb/reflector that were 250w mh for only $5.00. Thats after I had spent $400 on just one 400w switchable ballast combo.

yeah it was pretty sweet, my lady is doing awesome with her new lights

we were having some troubles with the light, so we drilled a series of about 100 holes in both sides and set up an exhaust that takes the heat from the inside of the lamp out, it still gets warm in there, but the highest its gotten to is 88, before we did this it would go up to 110, very bad. But now it is awesome, I'll try and take pix next I can.

Here's some updated pix, I found what I'm transplanting into, just need to drill some holes and what not, it will be nice, its actually an Easter basket, lol. Anyways, me and my bud are setting up our DWC hopefully today for a clone of the plant that you are about to see, unless of course you looked at the pix first, then read. In that case, do so in reverse order.....so yeah, I'm baked and here's some pix....

Here's today's pictures. I had to do some LST, and thought it would be appropriate to use hemp. I also transplanted today into my Easter basket, its awesome, it has a layer of Perlite on the bottom, then I placed the root ball and what-not into the bucket, then placed a layer of Perlite around the root ball, then some 50-50 soil Perlite mixture. Anywho, heres the pix....

..... also, peat is too acidic for cannabis, it will get you by, but is not the medium of choice ... I recommend RapidRooter plugs for your cloning/seedstarting needs ...

Hi ImageReaper, the Rapid Rooters are good although that big ass hole they punch in the center of them is ridiculous. But about the peat pellets: they are not made of peat and the pH is near neutral.

Me and my buddy are starting a DWC, just a single 5gal bucket with a single plant. We are seeing how we do with it, then moving to a nicer set-up. I never knew nutes were so expensive. Anyway, still need to find some hydroton, either need to order it or take a 50 min drive, i guess we need to make a decision.

Just high as balls and scanned some of my leaves. These are about the average of how big the leaves on my plant are getting, the 3 inch one is actually about the largest I have had. Does anyone know if this is any specific strain of nugs or just some mutant pot plant.
