That's awesome man. Very impressive. What's your light setup look like?

Wow very impressive grow. I'm using a dozen CFLs myself and plan on starting flowering soon. Do you have a light timer setup?

Hey man, good to see there are more and more CFL growers out there. I'm about a month and a half into my own CFL closet grow, using 504 watts of 2700k CFL light. First of all, If you haven't checked it out already, I'd recommend you head to Barnes and Noble or Borders and find a copy of Buds for...

This sounds like a pretty good setup, keep us informed on your plants progress.

I really don't think members of Rollitup would share enough information about themselves to have police actually track them down using their posts/comments alone. I think most people use enough common sense regarding what they share, especially considering this hobby is still illegal in most...

Hey BigSteve does this really work? I'm willing to give it a try if you think it'll help.

Darwin, very nice looking plants so far. I think you could add a couple more CFLs, (on the larger size and 2700k) but it looks like you know what you're doing. I have my own grow going right now too. Check it out- https://www.rollitup.org/blogs/296347-zovoel.html

Leave all possible light in the mix for both stages. With 6500k vs 2700k, each will have better results in different stages, but whatever light you got let the girls enjoy!

Following the advice on this thread has been very helpful with my own grow. Thanks to everyone with positive input, it's greatly appreciated. Check out my CFL closet grow, putting this good info to use! https://www.rollitup.org/blogs/296347-zovoel.html

Best of luck to you with your new endeavor. I have a similar CFL grow underway right now, with homemade soil, light fixture, ect. Update with pics and feel free to check out my journal below. https://www.rollitup.org/blogs/296347-zovoel.html

Hey GK, or is it SeeMoreBuds? Just wanted to say thank you for all the important knowledge and experience you've shared with the pro-cannabis community over the years. Never thought I could successfully grow til I read your stuff. Now my friends think I'm the expert! Anyway, keep it up man, I'm...

Looking forward to the pics, I have some ideas for lighting strategies that will really make a difference in your plants growth too.

It's called topping and/or fimming. Basically take the newest growth at the tip of the plant and cut off the top 80% of baby leaves. What happens is the growth below will utilize the energy and nutrients no longer being used by the top, and grow two or four new main stalks. It makes the plant...

How tall is your plant and how many alternating nodes does it have? What is their average distance from one another? How many full sets of fan leaves does the plant have now? From those pictures it's just looks really skinny and tall. The shorter and bushier the better when using CFLs. Like...

I have over 500 watts of CFL lighting several inches above each plant. From the pictures it looks like your plants are stretching significantly. The shorter the distance between nodes the tighter the buds man!

I agree with the above post.. It's a very interesting set-up but I think you could do a little more research on these forums to maximize your success.. i.e. light proximity, lumen output, and even building a decent light fixture. Not trying to criticize, just offer my opinion. Check out my...

GeeTee that is a very impressive grow. I'll definitely post more pics for anyone who's interested in following their progress. Question for you though- What kind of lighting system are you using for those great flowering results? HPS? Karr, I wish I could say I was more creative, but my...

Yea I figured I'd feed them some N before I went home for break and the tips and bottom leaves did get a little yellow from it but overall I'm impressed with their growth. The HPS is gonna do wonders though. The biggest of the 7 has 8 alternating nodes, hopefully that fills up real nice during...

Tell me what you think

The Miracle of Miracle Grow Many seasoned growers out there tend to favor organic and soil-less mediums for the presumed benefits in yield, THC content, and overall flavor. It is widely recognized that hydroponic set-ups can be very successful when done correctly, as can chemical-free...
