It's done, guys. Built and the lights are rocking and rolling.

Mini update: plants are responding extremely well to the lights. These hairs are blowing up, fellas. I'm so excited to see how this turns out. I'm broke so instead of using cal-mag I just threw some milk into my feeding and the plants seemed to respond well. The deficiency looks like it may have even regressed? Is that possible? The leaves just look a whole lot healthier! I also moved the led light to the very top of the box because it's supposed to be like 1-5 feet away frm the tops. Hopefully I don't roast em

Shoot brother i still ask my mentors for help, never stop educating yourself, there's always something to learn

You can control the node spacing by the height of your light i try to keep my node between 1-1 1/2 inches, you can adjust your lite or you plants, do you have a small fan on them?

Just remember if your plant is in flower, they need to be in complete darkness no light leaks none or they'll herm on you!

I have a runt that is growing super slow with the same growth on both of the second leaves. Its like three leaves fuzed together into one leaf.

Yessir @GrowingGreen. I have a small battery powered desk fan on them at all times. The led bulb came with a manual, and it suggests being like 1-5 feet away from the cannopy. I'll try to maintain that as best I can with the amount of space I'm aorking with. For my next grow, I'm definitely going to be growing 2, maybe 1 plant, and I'm going to veg for like 2 weeks to a month with topping, and LST so I can really take advantage of this small space. I was even thinking about some gentle LST on these current plants, but I'm afraid they will be a lot easier to break because I hear the stems become more brittle during flower so it can support the bud weight. Any and all suggestions help! Thank you @Smerb, and best of luck with your runt plant, I have one as well! @3N1GM4

Went ahead and also did some LST so, maybe I won't have to move my led! I was going to wait until my next grow to LST, but I figured what the hell, I have a small grow space, and this will supposedly give me more yield, and I'm all for more smoke:smoking:

Looking very good. I lst'd a plant that insisted on being tall and long branches.
It ended up with all of the side branches bending up until they were all straight up. Each branch grew a near identical "top" cola. It was like harvesting a dozen top colas off of one plant.
As long as you are not snapping branches, you won't go wrong bending your plants to get max space usage. Happy growing.

You should be able to put that light 16-24" away from canopy, either way your doing a fine job

@BudBogart that's exactly what I'm trying to get this plant to do! I want all of those to cola, instead of having that traditional christmas tree with one cola. More yield would definitely make me happy!
@GrowingGreen thanks, brother!
I rearranged the box a little, and they're looking beautiful now that the tops have oriented back towards the light!
Ft. Runt plant (aka shit head)

Moved the runt plant down so that I could drop those cfls down toward the sides (now tops) of the plants! I also have a cup of ice water sitting in here at all times to help with humidity and temp. Good idea or bad? No ice? Etc. I believe this little box sits around 85 degrees. I'm not too sure how else I could make it cooler. I dont think it's too bad. I've read some micro grows really struggling with heat problems, like 105+. I'm looking into a real led light. Just a small ufo panel for like 120. Do you guys think I should roll with that, or something a little bigger?

I would cut a hole in the box and put a computer fan on it venting air from the top side.

Yes i think ufo would be perfect for you, also remember that at 80degrees mites gnats and other bugs start to come around, you really dont want them around in flower! Mites can reproduce at a 1000 to 10,000 a day in temps 80 an above

There's already a hole cut in the top, and that would be the most optimal @3N1GM4. The problem is, do you have to have a power supply to connect it, and run it? Or do they have adapters?

I can also neem them inside, correct? @GrowingGreen

Never stress a flowering plant. Branch training usually is done by the time flowering begins. If you do it right your branches shouldn't be brittle they should hold weight. When a plant is topped it will branch out, that's when you get multiple tops. 82° or less so plant don't stress. I'll answer any question.hit me back
