Hey dirty were is the other cat that was here!!!this is just one of many i found on here, he dont get buds this size with his HPS i bet...

Wow the grow went good this time round..... I got about 4 OZ's (little over) of healthy fat nugs. Havent started smoking yet, still curing. Heres a few pics....i'll post the new kid pics in a couple days...... Super Silver Haze!! Let me know what you think......JP!​

Medicine has severely improved the quality of my life. You try breaking your spine in 3 places and see if you don't need some sort of pain relief............ 6 Plants per cycle every 8-10 weeks! 1 OZ per 16" plant all on CFL's.......

wow very nice grow it impresses me that you dont have to spend 1000 plus on your equipment to get your medicine...very nice im planning on ordering some seeds from the attitude seed bank been eyeing the pineapple express grape ape the list goes on feels like christmas looking at the catalouge

after work tomoro i plan on adding another 2-4 26 watt cfls to my setup so now i will be pumping out just over 200watss in total...i cut my plants down to 7 i am thinking of pulling out 3 of them to keep them vegging for anohter 3weeks...i also plan on taking a couple of clones off of these 4 im planning on flowering.....they are all in 1.5gal containers should i switch them to something bigger or will it be fine for my dresser

 

[stinkbudd1]

Yea man that looks real good and sounds like a nice plan, remember to take the best looking babies you have out for mothers and then just run with the rest by the time you get everything all running like it should you'll be ready for the clones from the best phenos to really get going..Peace

 

[dirtycurty420]

so i am thinking of switching to 12/12 i heard of ppl goin 24hrs in the dark right before going 2/12 what does this do and should i do this lol come on ppl help me out here

 

[dirtycurty420]

so can someone help me with this what does it do to the plant when you put it in darkness for 24hrs before starting the flowering cycle

 

[stinkbudd1]

Ive done it the last 3 grows for all my girls and i see a difference in the time i can tell sex and thats the only reason i do it..It's not going to speed up flowering time or anything it's simply for telling sex to me it does seem to jump start the proccesss...

Without doing it i would take about 8-10 days to be real sure about sex..With it maybe 7 each time sometimes 6 days..

 

[dirtycurty420]

ok thanks i was just wondering...im sticking 4 of them in the veg area and 3 of my best girls are showing sex already...so im goign to flip the switch tonight at 10pm i will add some more pictures later tongiht guys show you how thigns are looking....im thnking of using my dresser as a veg area and my closet as the flower area....i am pretty stoke im ordering a 150hps from htg sometime....goign to use most of these cfls as side lighting and for my veg area... so stoked....just thinking couple months down the road im smoking my own meds saaaweeet

 

[WvMade]

Nice the 150watt from htg is the bomb im gonna get it or the 400 watt its funny u can get a 400w for about the same price until u add the supercool n such and i was just in a thread a guy got 43 grams with 2x 23 watt cfls that thread was truely for cfl haters lol

 

[dirtycurty420]

he was 3 off of the g per watt ratio that is sick im hoping to do something like that lol yea i know i was checking out the lights lately and they seem like the best place to order from...im hoping they ship to canada...i was thinking the samething off going for a bigger light or even going for the complete grow kit which includes a 400watt ffof soil iguana juice veg and flower sample of overdrive 9 1 or 2 gal grow bags not sure if i forgot anything but yeah its a complete grow kit for 275 how could you go wrong ordering that.....it would be rude not to lol

Man you are going to love your 150 hps and for one good reason you can really hook your grow area up with a good mix of cfl's different spectrums to get a real good overal light source!! i like what you doing maaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaan..Keep up the good work.Peace
