Mrpiston: thanks for stoping in.. they are 2 weeks old, and they have been fed approx 25% strength nutes... if you have a look through the thread and pics, you will have seen the growth improve once the nutes were added..

there are no signs of nute burn, or slowing of growth... growth has actually improved!

funny you should mention the slow developement.. I was thinking the same thing the other day... i've grown girls that have developed a lot quicker than this, however there are no signs of stunting, no overwatering or any stress related factors that should slow these plants down.. maybe the 24/0 lighting has something to do with it? not sure?

they are looking healthy, and growth has really started to move now, so i'll keep doing what i'm doing. that being said, thanks for the comments and yes - I do need a no pest strip in there!

Well, "Helen" looks MUCH happier.

Avoid checking your garden every 5 minutes (yeah, right), and growth spurts seem more obvious.

Nice color. Mine are still fairly pale but, they just started getting real food levels.

Update on the WR: well the ladies are really starting to look good! there is quite a bit of growth since the last photos.. they are very lush, have a beautiful colour and are standing nice and tall...

they have had another feeding of advanced nutrients sensi grow A+B.. this stuff is amazing, so far so good! i'll definately be using it throughout the growth and bloom cycles.

now its time for an update on the cabinet..

the biggest remaining job for the cabinet is to get the "bloom room" completed..

well, today I went to my local hardware supplier and purchased some timber & PVC pipe work to create a "slide out floor" and start creating my SCROG screen.

i've taken a few snaps with my mobile to show you guys what i've been up to in the garage today (besides smoking :rasta:)..

first pic is me "dummy fitting" one of the heavy duty slide out rails that will support the floor.. I measured two points from the floor (exactly the same) at each end and put some screws in (few threads) to support the weight of the slide:



after that, I simply screwed the slide in using the appropriate screws, heres one I prepared earlier:


after the slides went in, I purchased some MDF and cut it to size for my slide out floor system, heres a pic of it half way open and then one of it closed:




here is how my pots will be laid out:


and finally, roughly a foot over the pots soil level, there will be a mesh/SCROG screen which is created out of PVC pipe work, heres what I have done so far with that (heaps more to do though):


anyway, hope you guys are enjoying my thread :rasta:

well, its been a busy two days for me..

i've nearly completed the bloom room.. here are a few photos showing how it all works:

started off by using a holesaw and cutting 4 holes in the sliding base:


here are the upright supports for the scrog screen:


and the same supports in the holes i've made using the holesaw:


ok, uprights installed with frame attached:


as above, but out of the cabinet:


height from slide out floor to SCROG screen is approx 21":


from screen to cool tube, I have 9-10".. I can put my hand on the cooltube glass when the lights been going for hours due to the good airflow I have:


and here is the SCROG system 90% complete:


and out of the cabinet:
