Coolshade looks like a glass tube with reflector on one side, connects to fan to take heat away. (Diamond reflector is another reflector Ecotechnics make I think). So yeah the fan should be pulling air directly from over the bulb.

The rockwool cubes are for cloning (hence the formulex) although I am thinking about setting up some sort of non-soil grow with the 400 watter (which will soon be kind of redundant).

Might set up some kind of home made bubbler or something as an experiment.

More pics.

As you can see all is well in the vegging chamber.

The flowering plants (1st generation) have never really recovered from my absence (poor things

) but I`m dosing them up with alarming amounts of nutes (my last grow of Mango`s would have been burning real bad the amount I`m giving them but I guess NL`s are hardy that way) which they seem to appreciate but you can`t turn back the clock and they`re looking a bit pasty.

The second generation have been in the flowering chamber around a week. You may notice LST going on.

Sorry these pics (apart from the veg chamber) arn`t real good, maybe I need to get a tripod or maybe stop drinking coffee.

Yeah I`ve neglected the first generation a little one way or another but the 2nd gen are what counts as they`ve effectively been vegged for a good time. I`ll see how they turn out and then stick to the best one for cloning.

Nope LST is a new thing for me, I want to get it down so I can grow some sativas without running out of space.

**Cerebro** · 10-05-2008, 04:55 PM

A worthwhile exercise, fo sure.

farmergiles · 10-15-2008, 01:16 PM

More pics, the same big girl- see how she`s coming along. Next generation girl with LST and vegging plant with more bondage

.

big mama looks nice and fat mate! How long till finish?

By the way, theres a new product for LST called "bendz". Most UK grow shops have it.

Makes LST easy with no strings all over.

farmergiles · 10-16-2008, 04:01 AM

Not sure how long till harvest, think they got set back a bit, most of the trichomes are still clear- a lot of them are getting a bit cloudy so shouldn`t be too long.

**Cerebro** · 10-16-2008, 06:43 AM

definitely finishing up nicely

Damn right.

Just got some rockwool cubes, set a bunch of cuttings. Added a little formulex to their water, will see how it goes.

Getting impatient for the new kit to arrive, I need to clear the vegging chamber out a bit.

First generation ready for the chop methinks, trichomes looking cloudy now. It`s fun studying your plants with a 30x magnifier. Next watering commence flushing!

^^sweet

the good feeling of getting ready to harvest..

farmergiles · 10-19-2008, 01:18 PM

Clones doing well in rockwool.

If this works out I can`t believe how easy it is, should have been doing this ages ago.

Have to get hold of some, they will make LST even easier!
