right this is my second grow, im using my wardrobe (50x40cm x 5.9ft) im using biobizz all in one mix, using 12L root pouch instead of plastic pots, 2x23w CFL's every week one light will be added due to lack of funds and im growing a auto fem Ogre from The Joint Doctor. Nutes will be decided once ball is rolling but will most likly go for tomato feed as not as strong as the tailor made stuff.

my seed is in germination atm and will post pictures soon as i get my hands on a decent camera.

I would also bang her in front or close to a window on sunny days.....the suns free n stronger then the cfls mate...and I would run her with 24hrs of light....

You can buy a 300w Cfl and reflector for £35 it would be worth saving up and getting that man....

just be sure to ease it into sunlight because it will get sun burnt basically if you just throw it out in the sunlight at a window and its not used to it.

View attachment 2835096after today the black duct tape shall be covered with reflective tape so dont worry !
Hey turk that soil sounds pretty good. No nutes until the plants ask for them. You don't need to grow auto's to cover your busy lifestyle just get a timer for your lights. I think mainlining would work great in that space too. It's a lot of fun to grow these plants so be diligent and patient.

im trying to find a 4 way splitter atm as i want 4x23Wers but am struggling in finding a place that will supply the multi connector with a plug fitting. above the lights there is another reflective sheeting plus a mirror glued to the very top! as for putting them by my window this is something i cannot do nosey people and live in a city,

i will be keeping this on a 24/0 so that should be ok

yeah its biobizz all in mix pretty fucking cheap and its light as feathers (well a 20kg bag over your shoulder rush hour on the tube isnt light) im slowly getting all these bits into place like a timer is on my list. im not feeling doing a main line as its a auto and surly arent i just going to stress the plant ?, im already stunting it via keeping in a half litre pot for 2 weeks then into 12L.

Use a spray bottle to water those babies. They don't use much water, no leaves for transpiration so they don't need much. Just spray the soil at the base of the seedling.

I don't have any thing going really I just had questions when I started these girls. Then I fell into a great group with the https://www.rollitup.org/organics/676040-total-noob-using-teas-i.html gang and have been blessed with following their advice and uncle bens. Maybe I'll start something for the end of my two older girls and the 2 I used uncle bens topping for 4 main colas method on. I should be harvesting in 1-2 weeks. Too bad I can't even smoke this stuff, just a caregiver. Heres a list of threads to subscribe to other than the one above https://www.rollitup.org/advanced-marijuana-cultivation/151706-uncle-bens-topping-technique-get.html https://www.rollitup.org/advanced-marijuana-cultivation/267989-uncle-bens-gardening-tweeks-pointers.html https://www.rollitup.org/organics/636057-recycled-organic-living-soil-rols.html There is some really advanced stuff in here, but only because people quit growing their own food soooo long ago. A lot of our forefathers were doing these things and didn't understand the reasons that it worked just that it did. Time to study boys.

Cheers for all the threads ill get on them now, its always time to study isn't it ? im looking stuff up everyday mostly rereading stuff so i know it for sure and slowly its all sinking in.

UPDATE:
2nd node has shown its tiny little self, running complete cool whites atm (testing just cool white off just warm and then both in conjunction). i know there are a lot of threads out there about what works best but none of them are for MY plant, this Ogre strain is extremely hard to find a grower of so im learning off my own stream and hopefully shall have one lovely LST'd Ogre !
