UPDATE:
Well dudes, I am now pushing my luck, but honestly the worst that could happen is an early chop. I figured I spent about 300$ total getting this grow all sorted, and a harvest of around half an O (which is wishfully thinking) would still have me below the profit margin. Obviously i'm not selling my bud, but 300 bucks and 2 and a half months of work didn't really work out in my mind.
SO, since May is the last I will see my grow box, since I am moving out of the country... I figured I'm going to start one more plant. I can't really wait until this one finishes, because that may not leave me enough time to finish the new plant.
I figured fuck it, and started another Polar Express in a pretty small container, a bit more than half of the 1 gallon I have now, and put it in my box with my blooming plant. (it is 6 in tall) And plus this new plant, will help the first one grow faster, in my mind, because I won't be 100% focused and waiting for it to finish and risking an early harvest.
I know this is not ideal conditions for the new plant. [Bloom lights, getting blocked out by the older plant, and smaller container] But, why not, I have nothing to lose.
Same soil and perlite as the original plant.
I do have a couple questions though....
Should I switch one of my 3 bloom lights for a veg light? Or will that lower the yield of my first plant. Right now my priorities are the first plant, so if it does, I will keep all the lights at bloom.
Also, the loudness of the PC fans will also determine the successfulness of my new plant, since relatives are moving in around mid April, that are not so fond of the Jane. Right now they are two Antec pc fans. Would it be worth buying extra quiet fans? I did unscrew one of them just to hear how loud it is stand alone, and it seemed considerably quiet. So maybe its just the air blowing around in the box that makes all the noise.
I can't really think of anything else at the moment. I know this is a lot to read, but any advice, or tips are very much appreciated. If you have none, just sit back and enjoy the show. Because this new plant should be pretty interesting.
Alright, here are some pics. Peace out dudes!
