Small Growbox

[flockazak]

I've been putting together a small grow box for about 2 weeks now and it's finally done, i'd like any tips or opinions on the setup or the plants
Also, 2 of my plants stopped growing, and i have no idea why. Theyre not dying, just not growing.
box dimensions are 4'x2'x2'

How old are they and what kind of soil is it?

They are about 2 weeks old and Scotts premium potting soil.

Maybe I'm wrong, but they look like they stretched and fell over. Looks like the lights could be a little closer too.
Try propping them back up, and if ya can, move the lights to about 2 inches from the leaves. (keeps 'em from stretching.)
Also, do you have a digital thermometer to keep an eye on the temps?

Are you getting good drainage on the small one's? Might need to transplant them already.

They do look a lil stretched but they look like they have been tied down. Is this an LST grow?

[flockazak]

yes this is an LST grow
as you can see im a bit limited on space and i decided LST was the best way to try and keep em on the smaller side.
I don't have a digi thermometer in there, but i have a galileo thermometer that is in increments of 5 lol
I'm taking pictures every two days and when its harvest time i plan on posting a grow log here
Hopefully everythings go's smooth, I figured out the reason they stopped growing was due to stress from the transplant, one plant died from it, and the other is doing great now

It looks to me that you are using the 2700k light range. Is that right? If you are, I would invest and replace those CFL's with a light range of 6700k for vegging. The plants light reciptors prefer light in the blue light spectrum for growing.
