So no drainage holes ? You must know the feeding requirments very well, or do you have some other tricks ?
apoligies in advance, i know you will have answered this already at some point, if not many many times.

we need a blynx FAQ :)

Blynx- do you ever experience any issues with mildew/mold in cabs like these?

Love the results! Keep up the good work. 200 pages is a lot to go through but I like everything I've seen so far.

unless youre talking about the mold on this cab's back wall, nope, its harder to keep rh up because of the small space

That's not mold lol. That's two layers of paint inside the cabinet.

That cabinet was used and had to have been above/near a kitchen stove, there was grease soaked into the wood from many years of exposure.

The first layer of paint was brushed on kilz. First the grease soaked through the kilz and was visible in some pictures of the last round(s) in this cab. Then it caused the Kilz to peel/flake off in a bunch of places. I scraped off the flaking stuff and the I got some spray on kilz and sprayed the inside again. What you see is the outlines of the missing Kilz.

you need to prune all that useless under growth off all its doing is pulling energy away from bud production ;) all your tops should be singled out and exposed for better light penetration and growth :rasta:

I know, but I have such a hard time pruning living leaves that aren't directly blocking bud sites, so I really don't end up doing it.

It's also why I like strains that are more branchy and less leafy, like my c99 x shire (sssdh).
