    Thanks for the input.. I've thought about getting more light for the under canopy, just havnt figured out how or what type of lights.

    But I came across this grow a while back and this guy pulled it off

    Hey man sounds good but I would go with a lil more lights that's just me. I'm new as well so I don't really know just what I have read. I have heard to wait 2-3 weeks to start feeding so you don't get burns but that just what I have read don't really know. But other then that sounds good bro and hope your BITCHES do great!!

    Quick update..
     
    So far it looks like she's going strong! I've been battling with my temps...had to turn down my A/C and bring my ambient temps down, hopefully that helps with the temps in my case, but now I have to walk around my house fully clothed...lol. So far it doesn't look like its affecting her so maybe its not that important.
     
    There's a little discoloration in the leaves and new growth... not sure what that's all about but again doesn't look like its affecting anything. If this is something I should be worried about...im glad to hear some input and advice. I also got a fan on  her today to circulate the air and get her leaves dancing a bit. The fan comes on with the lights.
     
    I'm realizing now that there's not too many changes this early...lol. I'm also planning on taking a clone and growing a little lollypop in a Solo cup for shits and giggles, and to get some cloning experience.

    Got back into town yesterday and man did she grow!!!! On the older growth, you can see that the heat problems I was dealing with earlier caused the leaves to grow deformed. All the new growth looks great so heat shouldn't be a problem any more.
     
    I do have one question, if anybody can help me out....I plan on topping quite a few times and doing some LST. I want to get as many potential Bud sites as possible so I don't mind vegging her longer than normal. 
     
    So my question is...when would be a good time to TOP her? I was thinking about TOPing her in the next day or so..or should I wait for a little more growth?? When did you TOP your little lady?
     
    As always, all input is welcome!!! Hope you enjoy some porn!!

    Looks good add more lights try for a lighting ratio 3 6500k:1 2700k then for flower reverse that ratio.. you will want at least 9 bulbs I did one with 7 and wished I had 9..

    So why did you cut the fan leaves? And does it make a difference if I TOPed at the first nodes?

    I want to add more light but there's no room at the top for more lights in my case.. I might be able to add lighting from the bottom for lower growth but I think LED strips are my only option. I contacted MrGrowPro to see if I can buy his LED lights or if he can tell me his source..no luck on both. If your familiar with his case, how would you add extra lighting.

    I only have 3 bulbs in there now but plan on adding a fourth once she gets big enough...that's the max his case can hold on the power strip above the plant.

    Maybe small t5 fish tank lights you can get them and line the corners with them.. and also cutting the leaves off when u top opens up space for light to hit new growth but I found not to do that til there is strong growth coming from where u topped is strong enough to deal with bright light.. wait til at least 5 or 6 nodes to top at o e node you wont have enough growth
