  2. Hey I see it! I hope that turns out to be a pistil and not a testicle. Kind of early like you said though. Give it a week I think. Have u flipped to 12 12 yet? They will show faster once you do that I think.

    Im not a pro but the water in the humidifier goes in the air... i dont think the "air pH" is significant enough to effect anything... its all about the pH to the roots, cuz thats where all the nutrients get sucked in at... the leaves just need co2....
     
  8. Last update till next Wednesday so next time you guys see them they will substantially bigger

    Anytime I hope u have a bountiful harvest
     
  14. looking nice and green. I really like your set up. So much clean white light. Reminds me of when I tried to grow with tube lights. Nostalgia. I love how the plants look in that light
     
  15. Those four bulbs that are going up top will generate some heat. Hope your ventilation setup is up to the task.
     
  16. I have lots of air flow i know the current lights are no trouble at all to cool but i agree they are going to get hot just he how hot remains to be seen. I also have an a/c unit in the utility room where my box is
     
  17. Update flowering delay on account of stagnant water I opened the buckets and the smell almost knocked me on my ass
     
  18. What happened? Did the pumps stop working? Forgot to change the res this week? Do you see any progress on those preflowers? I hope they are all female my dude
