My first grow - indoor CFL- The Church from GreenHouseSeeds

[Deusmagnus]

Day 38 - Day 7 flowering:



Day 39 - Day 8 flowering:



No pictures of day 9; 10 and 11 of flowering because I was on vacation and left the plants all alone :/ Did give them alot of water before leaving though.

Day 43 - Day 12 flowring:



Day 44 - Day 13 flowering:



Day 45 - Day 14 flowering:


As you can see by looking at the first two pictures of day 14, I cut off a bunch of fan leaves and low growth on each plant, the budsites are now getting a lot more light

Day 46 - Day 15 of flowering:



Day 47 - Day 16 of flowering:



I got a thermo-hygrometer and it's looking good! A little bit hot in the box but nothing dangerous or alarming (min. at 27°C and max at 30°C).

At the moment they are only getting BioThrive Bloom, 2ml/1L. I was thinking about the Bloombastic, I am going to start giving it in a few days, but I'm not sure if I should mix it with the BioThrive Bloom? I am guessing it wouldn't cause any problem at all but I'm just not sure! How do you guys give your plants the bloom supplements next to the basic bloom nutes? Like once only basic (in my case BioThrive) and next time only supplement (Bloombastic) and repeat the cycle or...?

Day 48 - Day 17 of flowering:



Day 49 - Day 18 of flowering:

Two leaves of Marie don't look so good, but they've been like this for at least one week and it's not getting worse by the day so I'll just keep an eye on them.


Day 50 - Day 19 of flowering:


Buds are starting to look very nice! I'm going to give them the Bloombastic for the frist time today.

they are looking very good man! keep up the good work! i was going to go with clfs myself. but my buddy had tons of 400watt hps systems so he gave one with a new blub i used that.
question. i didnt read all the pages but. are u using foil? or is that mylar or panafilm?

 

[MarioMadness]

invest in some emergency blankets, or car window reflectors, can find them at dollar stores or wallmart or something. otherwise they are looking great

I was looking at the church seeds because of the cheap price, and from greenhouse seeds. But I ended up getting some Mataro blue by Kannabia seeds, since they won first place in the 2012 TreatingYourSelf Expo

here's my setup: https://www.rollitup.org/grow-journals/555434-matar-blue-first-grow-stealth.html

Thanks, did you already start your grow or are you still preparing?

Yes, that would be foil, but I'm planning on buying a grow tent after my first harvest, one with mylar inside

I'm not going to change the foil, I'll have a grow tent for my next grow^^

Yes the seeds are pretty cheap, but I chose this strain because of the odor, taste and high. I'm planning on growing some Hawaiian Snow, but I would like to grow a more "exotic" strain, something new that looks awesome. Green House Seeds don't have a lot of exotic strains but their genetics are the best imo. I'll take a look at your grow

 

[MarioMadness]

Well if you have a tent for the next grow then no point, Their growing awesome so far man!.. but you could always upgrade this box later on, have a second box for veg also? That's what I'm hoping to do for the next one. I can't wait that long for my medicine. Tho I did use tinfoil for a bit and have to say it works alright. I just found those's car reflectors at the dollar store, grabbed 4 for 4$, so wasn't spending that much more then tinfoil.. I might look into The Church more, but Im going to follow up on this to see how they turn out for now ... I do agree about green House having good strains, they have quite a few cannabis cup winning strains in their bag. I've been looking at some of The Euro Stuff lately.. more Kannabia Seed's strains to be precise, seem to be good plants and most are short height (40-70cm for most) , high yeilds, and Stuff from Spain! And all run for about 35$ a pack (up-and coming company) http://www.kannabia.es/en

Where did you get the church seeds? I use single seed centre and they never got it..

U don't really need a new tent.. you can just be cheap and buy mylar or pandafilm roll and start taping

 

[jonesyovjarra]

mate they look very nice its looking good especially for your first grow , i also have 4 of the church in the tent in veg alongside 3 cali-o and a blue cheese and its also my first grow
keep up the good work

Thank you all for the comments,

I checked out the spanish seed bank's website a few days ago and it looks good, but I'm sticking with my idea of growing some Hawaiian Snow once I finish these beautiful ladies.

My box is a really simple homemade assemblage of carboard boxes (the ones used for moving), tape, tinfoil and some little metal pieces for stability. It's not closed on the top so I got a nice "lightproof" and "soundproof" curtain hanging around it, it's in the corner of my room. It ain't very handy but only cost me 2-3 hours of my spare time ^^ So I will definitely get myself a grow tent for about 250 swiss francs, it will make everything a lot easier, and will take less space (I have a little space issue, so this will help and I won't be able to use the second box for vegging, I get enough for my personal use with one box anyways).

I ordered my seeds online, since I live in Europe. Too bad they don't deliver to the United States, you better get your shitty laws together mates I mean from Switzerland we're basicly laughing at your medical marijuana federal law problems, in the state I live you can grow up to 4 mature female plants at a time for personal recreational use, and the federal law can't do anything. Sometimes I wonder why the fuck such a big, famous and amazing country like yours doesn't have laws that make sens, and how compelete idiots get jobs like chief of the DEA (yeah I'm talking about the Miss who doesn't know the difference between marijuana, heroin and meth lol). Maybe too much democracy kills, you know what I'm saying? When too many people are wrong and the majority wins, and you end up getting fucked. On the other hand Switzerland is also very democratic (not saying my country is perfect, by far), I just wonder sometimes how things can go so wrong. Don't get me wrong I love the USA it's just that you've got some quite serious problems^^

An update with new daily pics will be coming soon, probably tomorrow, if I have enough time!

If you are indeed growing with CFLs you may regret not doing some type of training. I say this out of experience (albeit limited). You will have many undeveloped lower buds if you just let the plants grow naturally without training.

EDIT: Nvm, see you are already in flower.

fuck it, he started flowering. this was still awesome advice man. i mean it doesnt take a fucking scientist but all it took was your post for me to think about that one.

Nice profil pic'

Like I said I'll try and get enough light on the lower popcorn buds, of course they won't be as developed as the higher ones but as long as they are smokeable and have at least 5% THC I don't care^^
I talked about this in previous posts already so I won't add anything else

I am going to take some pics in a few hours, before the lights go off, and upload the last few days shortly after that so stay tuned!

The last picture shows one of the lower buds on the tallest plant, as you can see they are doing great for now, I'll be cutting off some more fan leaves in the future.

Its nice to see someone almost at the same pace as me right now Just turning to day 18 now on my 2. Exciting to see the bud's develop over time now that your getting closer to week 4! Isn't it? How long you going to flower these's babys? Forgot to ask! I see the site recommends " 59 - 75 days (~63 days)" ( 52 days to go! haha)

Yeah it's really satisfying to see them fatten up Flowering time is 8 weeks so only 4,5 weeks to go

Starting to come along pretty good. Starting to build up some resin on them now! Im at the 24 day mark myself. and looking maybe a day or two ahead of yours for the day. But oddly not as much crystals. Gentic traits are lies sometimes lol...

 

[pkush420]

very good work man. keep it up!
