New Grower First Time Grower

and the box is kinda getting to be a problem for my gf which she cant sleep when i want to attend to my plants after ive been gone all day.. but the power it draws already for the box.. is alot.. have to find a seperate wall than all the other appliances just for timer and lights as it was kicking my bathroom lights off.. maybe on a hope and a prayer she may say yea.. just have to get the right lengths and hope its a little more quiet than what i have setup right now..

Can always have the lights turn off just after your home, then tend to the plants then, it wouldn't cause much stress at all especially with autos, and then your gf wont be blinded by the lights. Mind you it's always nicer to tend to the plants with the lights on.

You also must have a lot of power draws on that one circuit as your box consumes what around 150-180watts, shouldn't even make a dent on a normal circuit, but i presume older house wiring, and may a older flakey breaker to boot.

Also no need to move the lights up yet especially with cfl's the closer the better till things get warm, as the plants will now notice a decrease in light and will try stretching for it, even if you're trying to induce some stretch they will do that on their own.

BTW late to your thread but i put it on my subscribe list, and will watch till the end and so as long as nothing major happens "GF throwing out the plants" you'll most likely make it to the end. :biggrin:

Okay ill move them back down yes i was trying to get them to stretch.. by moving the lights up.. and its date night tonight so ill chit chat and see what she says about the tent.. gotta research the pros and cons of it..lol.. and im going to check my wiring house is maybe 30yrs old maybe less.. so it should be a problem.. and i have 6 60w cfls running 4..28w leds running on the same power strip.. and through the timer.. i moved them across the room and everything is fine now... plus i doubt she will throw them away.. hell she likes to smoke as well..lol
 
UPDATE: Watered both girls today Run Off is where i need it to be so we are moving right along.. I'm wanting to get some other enhancements as i'm starting to flower what are some that's good to use during flower i'm using flora series now.. at half strength.. i may try full next feeding just to see how she reacts and see where we are at.. i want to get some length to her maybe she will stretch in the coming weeks.. also haven't seen any new leaves with holes in them i have 2 marked to see if it happens more to those or to other leaves as well.. but other than that.. All is well there starting to smell a little unless what i was smelling is my shoes sitting beside the box..:crying:.. welp picture time.. also took a few close ups of some of the hairs coming from the bud sites.. very neat and intreasting

I have a few question for the folks tagging along.. my plant is starting to flower and hairs are coming in what is an ideal humidity for my box..? ive turned the humidifer off opened up another hole to let in and out fresh air also opened a window to get a cooler breeze in through the box to combat the temp from the lights if that works at all..lol.. also my clip on led lights are they to close there 28w led bulbs.. just a few questions i have and feedback would be greatly appreciated.. other than that the girls are coming along and they are really starting to put off a smell..

raise the LED's, if you want to get a final stretch.
45- 55 RH is ideal for late flower. You could work with up to 65 RH, at this stage.
