Cheopo CFL bagseed grow.

[TheAngbadang]

Nice dude, I actually have a box (cardboard) with a single 28w CFL that I use to germinate my seeds. Works just fine for me, and I think yours will do fine for you also. Great job keeping it cheap and simple! ~ Let us know how it turns out man

Thanks man, sounds like your germination setup is the same as my whole setup .

Exactly - But I grow mine till about 6-8" and then transplant from the solo cups and move outdoors or under the 400w Lamp. You most certainly CAN grow a finished product under this set-up. Your plant looks female to me (short, bushy appearance) - of course I could be wrong, but maybe not. Keep us posted on your progress brother -

I post the progress often :=)

16th day since sprout , she grew a lot during the dark period today , getting nice and bushy.I am really amazed at how much this thing has grown in 16 days my last attempt at growing was with a small 10w LED grow light I made (gotta fix that thing and put it in the box , it has some blue light which wont hurt) and at 30 days the plant was no where NEAR as developed as this one.
Can anyone tell me what those liquid droplets forming on the leaf tips are ? Are they good or bad ?(you can see them on picture 24.jpg)

Also is it normal for the youngest leaf pairs to be lighter in color than the rest of the leaf material ?

It it is normal for new growth to start off light green. If you have a decent eye, you can see they usually start off as yellow near microscopic new growth. Watch them though, you want to fill them in (npk) without burning them.

Btw, she is filling in nicely. Are you going to 12/12 before any pre-flowers show? Maybe start reading up on stress tecniques, you can have some nice advantages with a cfl in between 2 medium colas instead of 1 fat cola.

I started 12/12 from seed , I have already bent the main stem horizontal , also I just saw some little tiny things which I think are white hairs , but I don't know if they can show up this early

Some plants can start flowering 2nd week 12/12 from seed. Good luck! Flowering has started

I am positive now that there are female preflowers, I saw more of them and some are in pairs and make the V

Is it a good idea to use a small amount of barbeque ashes for some added nutrients?

Will a 14 hour dark period speed up flowering ?

Just wait you'll be ok.

yeah auto flowers don't really pay attention to light cycles. More so "maturity". They'll grow till they can start pumping out flowers, keep growing while they do so, then all of a sudden stop growing, plump up and die.

Are you saying my plant is an auto ?

 

[eatspam]

I thought you said you had an auto? lol, might be getting my journals mixed up.
If it's photoperiod (regular, not auto) you don't really want to mess with 12/12 until the final weeks.

well I am doing 12/12 from seed, Its bagseed maybe it has the ruderalis genes because it started flowering on day 16 from sprout which is good for me because now after it does the flowering stretch it will be the perfect size for my small growbox
