Excellent Naysen - - the plants look great!

I have only been running my HPS light for 3 hours per day, and set on the lowest (250 Watt) setting. Unfortunately, the Mt. Princess and Victorian Dwarf plants are so tall that they are preventing the Rosella Purple and Iditarod Red plants from getting any sunshine during the day. I am going to add an hour and run it from 5:00pm to 9:00pm starting tonight.

You might want to get a pack of of the 5 Sticky Traps at your local Hydroponics Shop, as once white flies nest and multiply - - it is tough getting rid of them. Prevention at the outset is very important.
