    Ok so I have been reading a lot of posts and following a lot of grows. This made me want to see what all the fuss was about :D (as if I don't know) . I ordered two stealth grow boxes, one 2 ft tall and the other 3 ft. They are both equipped with 1 intake and 1 exhaust fan about 6". They also have the setup for the lights and air pumps then lined in Mylar. Overall it's an ok box it only does not include something for odor control. Thanks to GC tho and the DIY forum I have made my own carbonfilter :hello: . I really could use some help tho as I stated I am new and could use the advice. The OG Kush is bag seed I planted to give it a go along with the purple wreck and auto chocolate skunk. I am saving the others til I am sure I can at least get them to open up to the light. I planted them in Rockwool after germinating. I fear that I made a few mistakes tho. After planting I didn't cover up the hole cuz I was not sure how much or how, I did my best tho. I do have a sprout or two but I'm not sure if its lookin right. Please join me on this journey and help me make the magic happen ;)

    Any idea how to contain the light holes in the back or will it matter?

    During your veg cycle it really won't make a difference, during flower yes I would block out all light leaks. Now thinking about it are they maybe for small fans?

    Yea they are for small fans. There are two holes with two fans attached to the back of the hole (the fan is attached on the back on the box). I'm trying to see if I can cover or block the light from there?

    Okay, I would try to build a small light trap. Something that doesn't restrict too much airflow. There's lots of videos and threads on how to

    How about a small vent cover similar to this.

    Those would work fine except my fans lay on top of the box holes, so those would not fit.

    Okay so I think I may have hurt my ladies brutally. I had to leave town for a 2 days so I watered my girls a ill to much I think. Now my champ is turning yellow on all her leaves it looks pretty bad. Some of the others that had germed also did not sprout or look a little rotted where they started to sprout. I'm going to post some pics. Let me know if they can be saved or should I just start fresh? I have a few more seeds to try just incase I failed on my first attempt.

    Looking at the picture I would start over. Also when dealing with seedlings and clones, I've done really well only watering with distilled water for a couple weeks. It ensures a neutral ph, and they don't have to deal with any heavy solids in the water. IMO
