That's an amazing plant, DP. Hat's off!

The 3500K tubes arrived today and I'm still thinking of starting the flowering in the next week or so. Haven't seen much vertical growth in the last few days, but the plants are give-or-take a foot and a half tall and looking reasonably healthy. 3 gallon pots and it takes a gallon of water now to get any runoff at all after 3 days.

Not really seeing any problems with the T5 approach, but again, first grow in a very long time. Wish I had more room and can't believe people do this in PC cabinets. Here's an aerial shot from today:

Did I fuckup the FIM? You can also see the color of the runoff water in the bottom of the pan. Is this bad? Goes in clear, comes out looking like maple syrup. I didn't flush the coco coir before I used it - maybe should have?
Token LaRoche Reviewed by Token LaRoche on . Light at flowering First grow here and things are looking pretty good. Two plants in coco/perlite using FF hydro food. Plants are 12 and 14 inches now (pretty bushy -- from seed -- feminized white rhino; seeds from Herbie's). FIM'd 9 days ago and I'm still not sure I did that right, but everything still looks pretty healthy. Lighting is two T5 fluorescent light panels; each has four 6500K HO bulbs (2 ft, not 4 ft). This is in a 3x3x6' grow tent, so not much room. I want to switch the light cycle to Rating: 5
