Just thought I'd show what I'm working g with in my grow. I've had one grow before this but it was a random seed and turned out male. I've never been through the flowering stage so I guess I'm still a newbie. Anyways, I have 2 Feminized White Widows growing. One is 38 days today (Jan. 28th) and the other is 14 days. It is a microish grow in a 17" x 17" x 42" homemade grow box wrapped with panda film. I have a mars hydro 145w output led grow light and plan to add a couple 2700k cfls during flower as this is a small space. 2 passive intakes at the bottom and two exhaust fans connected to two diy carbon filters sucking air through the top. There is a small fan which circulates air and the temps hover around 75-80F during lights on and 65-74F during lights off. Running an 18/6 light schedule. Mars hydro reccomends 12-15 inches away from light during flower. This leaves me with 24-26" max grow height including pot. I plan to scrog soon to increase my yield. I will be doing updates every few days with pics. I left a lot out I know lol. I will address as needed. Pics coming up

Regular seeds are less likely to show intersex traits than feminized seeds.richard-simmons-featured.jpg

Hey all! It's almost been 3 weeks since my last post and everything has grown quite a bit! My WW #1 is 57 days old. WW #2 is 33 days old. Both are on day 6 of flower and had their first bloom feeding yesterday at ¼ strength. Currently I am flowering with the mars 300 (135 true watts) and 2x 40w 2700k cfls. I have a 125w 2700k cfl getting in tomorrow and will replace the two 40s with it. TBC...

As you can see I have a scrog set up here with WW#1 filling it up very nicely while WW#2 has been sitting right under it. I'm very curious as to what end result I'm looking at in terms of dry weight. I have read a couple forums with people getting .5g/watt with a single mars 300. Adding the 125w cfl and with the information and pictures given, could any of you provide your best guess as to final yield? I will be happy to answer any questions :). I'll be back in a week to update the progress!

Sweet! Really liked that small growroom!

I'm starting up soon with WW Scrog, same as you, but a little bigger (4'x4', 600w HPS). Have you topped the plants? They look so short and bushy :peace:

Yea I topped them both! WW#1 had a mutation where it grew 3 fan leaves per node on the main stem! So basically I got 3 shoots from each node up to the point of my top.

My screen is nearly full and I don't even think the flowering stretch has fully started. I'd like to be able to tuck it u der the screen for another week before I let it loose! :peace:

Thought I'd share my recently crafted clone box! It's 12x12x16 inches and I have 2x 23 5000k cfls and 2x 23w 6400k cfls. 1600 lumens each for 6400 lumens total. They were taken as relatively small clones from my WW#1 which is now in flower. IMG_20160217_190354427.jpg IMG_20160217_190530023.jpg Took 10 days to show roots through the rockwoll cube. They are on day 12 from visable roots and I have LST'd them both today. I want to keep them in there for at least another 3 weeks. I can raise the light maybe 3-4 inches max then I'm stuck :P. Any advice would be appreciated!

Begining of DAY 14 Flower. She isn't stretching as high as I had hoped... Wanted at least 2 more inches. Hopefully they stretch up a bit more but whatever. Lots of pistils forming on all the bud sites now. They got a ½ strength feeding of fert yesterday compared to the ¼ a week ago. No signs of nute burn so I will move up to ¾ next week. She looking OK for day 14 flower so far?

Looking good man, I've just started my first grow. I lined a closet with panda film and have exhaust and intake ran thru holes i cut in the door. I'm growing feminized ww also and am using a 250 watt hps. I only hope mine turns out as well as yours.
