This was just a test run to gain experience. Really ghetto...using bag seed, three CFLs and a large Tupperware container with holes drilled in it. Pretty happy with the results though.

Hey nothing wrong with the BS for experience,I have a few clones under 12" in their 6th week of flower and three 42" girls in their 3rd and this is also my first grow.

Hope to learn how to post pix ASAP and i cant wait,my lil plants look like frozen 10" banana buds.

Yeah.

Recommend a "trial-run" for any first timer. You learn so much your first time. After that, you can really grow with confidence using the full setup.

id give them a few more days (3-5), & water them just enough to moisten soil. u can try adding molassas to the water it wont hurt anything. 1tsp per gal. the advantages of letting the soil dry out b4 harvest is it cuts down on drying time & increases resin production a little.

How to Post Photos.

How to Post Great Photos in Threads

Since nobody has jumped into the ring to get this thing off the ground…. Permit me to try to get the ball rolling. I do however know how to post a photo in a thread, so maybe we can begin with that. There are several ways to post a photograph; the easiest IMO is to "manage your attachments".

When you are writing a post click "go advanced", if you scroll down under your writing window. You’ll find a area and the button that reads: Manage Attachments.


Once you click Manage Attachments, another window opens and invites you to browse your computer for your photo.


Clicking on Browse will open yet another window. You browse until you find the file you want.


Once you find your photo, click on it, click open, and it will allow you to choose another (as many as you want) or to upload the one you’ve chosen. Don’t close the window until your photos have uploaded.

NOTE: You might have to resize your photos, the best size is 640 x 480. You can use a wide variety of software to reduce your images if necessary, like "paint brush", but I’ll allow someone else to go into that.

This window below will now appear. If you are ready to upload, click on upload, and then wait!


You wait until the window below (notice it says Please Wait) changes to the window that tells you your files are uploaded and you can close the window.


If your photos were of a proper size, they are now going to appear in the thumbnails in your post (you won’t be able to see them until you either preview your post, or submit it). The thumbnail will now be able to be enlarged simply by clicking on it. The reader will be able to see it in the size that was submitted.


Your Manage Attachments area will now look somewhat like this with your photo’s filenames and extensions listed.


If you want to put your photo inline in your post (as a full size photo within your post), you can click on the photo filename (cup.jpg for example) and it will open in another window.


Highlight the address as above. (I like to start with the www since the http:// is already included in the next part.Copy it, close the window, then look on the top of your post, you’ll find this symbol:


Click on insert image icon , and this script prompt opens up:


Paste in the web address of the uploaded file you just copied, make sure your cursor is where you want the photo to appear in your post, click OK, and Voila! You did it! Your photo is now within your post amongst the text, like this:


Another way to post photos is to find them online already, anywhere.
Right click on the photo and you’ll open this up:


Click on properties. You’ll open this window:


Highlight the address beginning with the www,as shown below:


Copy it, then go back to the Insert Images button , and click it, paste your address in the script prompt,


Click OK, (make sure your cursor is where you want the photo to go) and once more, you’re good to go!
There are other methods to put photos in your posts, such as uploading them to GC.com I’ll let others explain some of the other methods.

If I were to switch over to the 400w HPS bulb, would that possibly help slow any more stretching? I have a couple stems that are getting pretty weak.

If I have to I guess I could re-pot a little deeper, right?
