Hey fellow growers! Pull up a seat and whtch me micro it up! Please give me all the feedback you like! I try to be as open minded as I can be and I'm willing to try just about anything. Obviously I don't have all the answers so any solutions to my future problems (which I am sure they're will be plenty of), I would appreciate any feedback. ~DP

So far I have a lot of light leaks on the doors I recently found out. I have weather stripping now, but I haven't installed it yet. It's been real busy at home lately... Anyhow hopefully I'll get that done within the coming week.
I completely ran out of space in my mother's quarters with all 7 seedlings. This wont be a problem in the future as I only intend to keep 3 or 4 mini bonsai mothers. Anyhow - I moved them all into the flower chamber and have them running 18/6 lighting with the 175w MH bulb.
Since I do not know the sex, I am planning on waiting this out a bit longer. Seedlings tonight are 31 days old and all hitting they're 4-6th node's but aren't staggering yet. I believe I will be taking cuttings as soon a I can so I can put them in the water only for a week in the mother quarters under 1 warm floro on with 12/12 to check the sex.
4 of my seedlings are Durban Poison, the rest I only have one bean each of each strain - the Fat Skunk, Skunk#1, and the donation from my good buddy Fat Puta who is ... currently busy at the moment attending to other things. Hopefully I will get at least 3 or 4 females out of it all, but we'll see.
At the moment - ambient temps are fluxuating very much because I am staying with family that prefers not to pay much for electricity other than what I give them $ for my lighting... During the day its anywhere from 75-85. Inside the cab its getting quite hot because of the heat we've been having lately. (I.e. ambient 84F 25%RH and flower room is staying at 91F 22%RH.) I believe I may add an additional 1" hole passive intake on the floor of the cab to assist with ventillation. It's just too hot.. Once me and wifey are in our own place in the next couple months again we'll be keeping the temps at 75 constantly in the apartment so not to worry there.
