    mmm.. Just gona have to keep a eye on your plants, They like a wet dry enviroment anyways. Letting them not completely dry out is good. But normally every other day I have to water if not more, Sometimes heat at tops is 100degrees.
    You just have to keep the air moving. I have the air moving that it actually damages some branches what else can you do. you either get burns or wind damage. Id rather have wind damage any day..
    Do you have any pics?

    Also they seem to suck up more water while fruiting (flowering)imo.

    thats because they need water for more parts of the plant. If this is your first grow or you havent had this problem b4 I think you might be panicking a bit.:rolleyes:

    #1, black pots absorb light and dry faster,, you could put small plastic bags covers on your pots to hold moisture in, Watch for mold growth allow to air out..(just cover the soil)not the whole plant.

    Dont think the 400 will be that hot, But you dont want much heat
    cause your plants will stretch. But imo some stretch is good..

    Work with light a bit and see if you can get it closer to the tops. Without burning them.. This will increase the usefull spectrum. and the plants will grow correctly. The distance cause the waves to scatter, But you have white walls :cheers2: but you dont want then living off of reflection, but rather direct.
    Keep a journal here.. So as this is already started, its a start.
    Good job on getting the right stuff to grow with though.. :D

    If you need humidity, Get a towel and drench it, then rig it out and hang it in there. as it drys it will release the moisture. (cheepo fix)
    Sandwich baggies will be fine. Just cut to size. no they will not burn, it will be like a biodome, but just a bit to keep them from totally drying up.
    You will need bigger pots soon. Read http://www.hipforums.com/newforums/showthread.php?t=308410
    for small pot garden tips. Manic has the nack.. When it comes to cups and small pots.. :cheers2:

    oh yeah thats good, Make sure you dont stuff it all up, and let it air out to prevent mold. But usually mold only grows when its dark, thats good. Should help...
    See if you get some more opinions here too.. Some might have a better idea for you..
    This forum moves slow. But usually someone will answer you..

    Anyways welcome to the forum.
    btw thats a good camera and stuff. Man I wish I had that..

    Yeah, a tooth pick, stick or something will help. When you get to growing and you have extra long stems after a harvest, hang onto them sticks and use them later, for proping up clones and small (seed start)noobs...
    They will harden up in a few more days with the wind.. Good to train a baby with wind early.. They will really love you later on for the excersise..:D

    IMO your plants are to small to have them being blown on, stick or no stick?
    your grow room looks nice! but not your plants:(
    give your plants 18ha of lghit?
    and take them plants out of small pots? get 20 liter pots
    this will also give the grow room more humidity? and plants more root space. give em some nitrogen urea not much or you can kill em if
    you give em to much:( did you give em any fertilizer?
    do you have anymore seeds cos i would go hydro? or maybe take
    clones from the plants you have when there more big of corse.
    So yer you do have a nice grow room thats good your trying to
    do thing right, You got potential kid! more than anyone here thats for
    sure.
