My guess is that those are going to be monsters.  They look nice and healthy. :thumbup:

literally just went out and bought a bulb, was using my window but im on the shady side of the house.

also, just went and bought the supplies for a shotgun terrarium but the only perlite I could fine has fertilizer in it. can I just rinse the crap out of it? and still use it?

I just read something from RR that some terrariums will hold high humidity but stale air. and develop like mine. chunky stems and tiny caps

Yes Rinse very well, some people (myself included) only was able to get there hands on Miracle Grow Perlite, I just rinsed it/strained it very very well and added it to my SGFC, I was also reading that if you have a funny smell coming from your perlite then it was not rinsed properly and you may want to re rinse it and clean out your FC, make sure you follow the SGFC to exact specs as well, if you have to break out the measuring tape and measure and mark the hell out of it lol that's what I did and its working quite well.

oh! and if you have Co2 build up it can cause tiny caps as well.

are those the only pins on your cake?  I don't think you need to change anything.. if those are the only pins on your cake, its decided to put everything into those three pins... they look healthy and the pins look normal; just big.  What strain variety are you working with?

Its ban hua thanon and yeah it was most likely a combination of C02 and crappy lighting. after I fixed both it seemed that literally a couple hours later the caps are swelling up :laugh:

and they are the only ones for now but there are 2 more tiny pins just now coming out. this is its first flush, birthed 3 days ago because it was pinning in the jar.

there's new hypnal knots forming on the other side of the cake now too

I'm with you on that, my first grow is almost done. I'm a noob too.. but I have put in a lot of hours researching and asking myself questions to research and learn.. any kind of what If question you have, does not hurt to research. I try to read as much of Roger Rabbits information as possible, and any other "trusted cultivator" on this website. when I have a question I tend to research that subject and get multiple answers then to settle with just one. and there is a lot of misguided and old information in these forums still too that can make things difficult. good luck with your adventures :smile:

I'm guessing MS (spore syringe).
Yeah flushes are more a concept than a rule and happen mostly with isolates.

Agreed.
IMO (and not tested) the idea of CO2 build up for cubes is mostly bunk in comparison to stale air, they really really love their FAE and consistent evap.
