Whats up Frostedwonder, I will def. take a pic when I transplant tomorrow hopefully and NO I didnt clone any of them. that little plant in the middle there was a seed I started just a couple weeks ago. I use well water that I let sit for a few days. I also sometimes use poland springs water. Thanks for the comment and input. I am very proud of my setup. I am getting some easy ryder seeds from the joint dr. and Cant wait to get them going in this same box. I am going to have 4 going at a time and then add 2 more seedlings after about a month or so. I'm going for a perpetual grow so I can at least harvest 2 oz's every month. I am also planning on having some auto fem seeds as well going outside. gonna start with 2-4 then start 2 new ones every month so I can have 2 or so plants ready for harvest every month. I did a little LST today to my plants and will include a pic. saved about 4-7 inches of head space. Wish I had started it earlier to have bushy low plants. OH well this is all a learning experience for future grows. I enjoy every minute of it and have def. learned a lot and done a lot of homework on everything.

Keep the comments coming please. thanks everyone and rep me if you view please.:thumbsup:

root balls of plants from couple days ago.:rastasmoke:

this ones for you frostedwonder.

[smallgrow1]

Come on peoples. I know there's way more of you out there then 2 people. please comment or leave some feedback. thanks. Does nobody think my box is awsome? You have to admit that its one of the better looking and properly functioning(as far as more then enough light, good ventilation, reflective interior and sweet and stealthy) cardboard cabs out there.

thanks everyone for viewing.:thumbsup:

I am just curious as to why u seperated the roots from the plants:wtf:

[smallgrow1]

good question viking as that would totally screw the plants over if that was the case, hahaha. Those are actually the root balls of the male plants which I had seperated from the rest of the females in another room. I had kept them for awhile and finally gave them the chop as of a few days ago. the males where the same size as the females though so the root balls are about the same size with the females. Just used those pics cause it was easier to take a pic of those rootballs which I'm disposing of rather then lift my females out of their cups to snap a pic.

Thanks for the post though.

Keep em coming guys and once again, thank you for viewing. Happy growing:jointsmile:

nice bro. i like the box. just curious of were u got that monster cfl though. i wanted to get the 150w 5000k full spectrum. the problem is finding it though

[smallgrow1]

thanks Wyldeganja, The large cfl can be purchased at any home depot and I believe also at lowes. goes for about $15. def a good investment, adds lots of needed light and I like the fact that it sits right in the center of all the plants and is within a couple inches of them and helps the middle and bottom portions of the plant receive light that otherwise wouldn't get to those areas with just the cfl's on top.

I can't wait to get the easy ryders going in this box. I think it'll be a very good outcome and I am hoping for good yields with this box and that strain. I am also going to get the auto fem kush x lowryder #2. This box is stealth and once I add my diy homemade carbon filter to the exhaust fan, it'll be 100% stealth. in the meantime I use lots of dryer sheets and smell good air freshners to keep it under wraps.

Thanks for the comment man. keep em comin.:dance:

btw the 150w cfl can be bought online. they get kinda pricey and you usually need a mogul size light socket but I saw some nice setups with the reflective hoods and the cfl as a package deal. I would still take a bunch of 26-68w cfl's placed all over the plants rather than just a big 150-250 watter on top. From what i've seen, cfl's seem to work best when placed all around the plants as far as yield goes. plus I heard that the high watt cfl's tend to burn out quicker and its cheaper to get a bunch of 26-68w bulbs. Do what you think will work best for your situation though. I am finally happy with the amount of light and placement of my lights for my box. Good luck
