I had a ton of help from all of you. No joke first time growing anything. I just did a ton of homework about every stage of it before I even bought my first light bulb. Can't thank you guys enough.

Its how you do it :p Now I would recommend moving that HPS to the middle, and those two T5 hoods to the left and right. It'll help make your bud's a lot denser.

Your grow looks great though. Ill definitely tag along.

Also, I dont think any home made Carbon filter is gonna make the cut for you. Get a nice big one so the inlaws dont go lookin for a skunk ;)

Great job on your first grow. Now just work on controlling plant height, creating a level canopy, and maximizing the canopy and you're all set.

Congrats!
No kidding, I had no clue they would stretch like that when fliped. Dont know how I missed that piece of info.

Stretching is something that really varies strain by strain. Plan on a foot of vertical minimum with sativas My strawberry cough(80/20 Sativa) grows about two feet when flowered as to my Master kush (100% Indica) Will maybe stretch like 3 inches. Learn your strains before you do em.

Also! Take clones off now if you want to keep any genetics alive.

Chobble :D

I have both HPS hoods in the middle and then the T5s on each side of them, I will get rid of the T5s all together after the room is done and replace them with 2 more HPS hoods. I have a carbon filter its about the size of 2 5 gallon buckets maybe I need to get another one.

Agreed, if the in-laws can smell it walking the dog, you may be inviting trouble.

I agree about the trouble thing, my only saving grace with the smell is that I live in the middle of no where and our nearest neighbor is the inlaws. I do need to figure out how to control it better though.

Safety first, brother! Post some more details about the intake/outtake of your room, and I'm sure someone will chime in with solutions. You can also post in the Grow Room A/C thread and I'm sure it will get picked up there.

Yeah re-veg will take a while, but its better then waiting till later. You have a lot of lower branches with smaller buds down there on a few plants.

When breeding Ill take a clone off the mother plant after she has flowered.

I think my odor problem has to do with my passive intake. It is a 10 inch intake vented through a central A/C 40 micron filter . The exhaust is 8 inch and is pulled through a charcoal filter not for sure of the size but its pretty close to 2, 5 gallon buckets stacked ontop of each other. How ever it is sitting on the floor and I think I should have hung it from the ceiling.
