Day 13 since planting, Day 10 since Sprout Finally the plant seems to be up taking some more water as I've had to water twice in the last 3 days or so and has developed some really nice growth lately. I'll prob definitely be doing some LST, but haven't decided on topping yet for sure. I...

Will do and thanks! I might look more into some topping too as well. Been looking at various youtube vids trying to get more visuals on how it's done. It seemed like it might be a good idea to let the growth get large enough to take clones from the topping done.

Thanks. That definitely helps. So it looks like you don't necessarily try to get your plant to go in that circle around the pot like that tutorial floating around, but that you just try to pull the growth apart and fan it out as it grows? That was my plan anyway, to just try and fan the...

Hey letitgrow, quick question about your LST process and pruning. Take a look at this picture of yours: https://www.rollitup.org/attachments/cfl-growing/1143952d1283977973-started-flowering-today-they-28-46daysflowering-2-.jpg Do you trim this much leaves from your plants throughout the grow...

I got my 150 watt HPS in today. It will be a while before I put it to use, as I'll probably wait till my grow bags get here so I can repot my plants and be able to fit both of the bags in my vegging chamber whilst I install the HPS in my main chamber. Let me say i think I'm a pretty handy guy...

Day 10 since planting, Day 7 since Sprout, 7 days no water Some really nice growth over night. It just looks a lot greener, very energetic and starting to look like an actual plant now. Still a bit of moisture in the soil.

Ok. I think I am done. At least it is now sitting in the location where it will reside, and I'm letting it run while I monitor temp/humidity. But I don't expect a problem, I went with 2 exhaust fans and one intake, similar to my main box. And this one doesn't have any light baffling right...

It's Alive!!!!! Here are some pics of the light trap I made. I'm not sure if I am going to use them though, I don't like the amount of space they take up. I might try to see if I can come up with some louver type design that I can just tape to the outside of the box. It won't stop all the...

More grow box prono. Just about finished with what will soon be my pre-vegg/cloning chamber. I'm rather happy with this box, although it is not something you would put a television on top of :) It's not all that stealthy as it kinda looks like there is something going on with it. If I saw...

So I have my pre-vegging/cloning chamber started. The dimensions as it sits now are 14x14x25. I used all of the mdf board left over from the shelves I never build into my main grow box. But I still need a top,bottom and front door. I also have to wire up the PC fans and the lights, and...

I use vinegar and baking soda. You'll see this from experience, but it takes only TIIIIIINY amount of each substance to raise or lower the pH of a decent sized amount of water.

Day 9 since planting, Day 6 since Sprout, 6 days no water Ok..... getting a little more growth. You can see the first set of nodes that formed. Jeez, still haven't watered yet but the soil is still slightly moist.

That's an awesome journal you have there with the explanation!! I have gone through many ideas with my grow. I plan on updating it with a full plan with pictures. But initially it was going to be a 6 light CFL grow. Then after reading a lot of journals I decided to go for an LST grow. Then...

Make sure you keep watching! Day 8 since planting, Day 5 after sprouting Not a whole lot of change as of now. But I can't complain. The leaves so far have just gotten longer. Still have yet to give this plant any water, which has me a bit worried. Soil is still moist two inches down...

Me too!!! Although I'm just getting a 150watt to supplement my current cfls. I feel like I'm betraying the CFL community. :(

I appreciate all you guys that responded. I think I have come to a decision here. I spoke with the guys at HTG, and they even recommended the 150watt based on my space. So I am gonna go with that and keep the 6 CFLs I have in there. Then make my other box that will house the other 6 CFLs...

Good questions. Here is the skinny. Initially I wanted to just grow with one cabinet with 2 plants. Now I have decided that I want a bit more. So my plans are to use my main grow box, which has a height of 29, a width of 33 and depth of approx 13 inches of usable space..... as a flowering...

So you're saying the difference in consumption from the 150 to the 400 is $30 on your bill? -----edit------ I see it was an additional 30 to your bill before you started growing with your 400watt. Saw your journal. Also.... Honestly I am kinda debating now, and kind of have an affinity to...

Also, if this is feasible, I have no problem purchasing all the items necessary from home depot or some place to build one myself, bulb, socket, ballast, fan, and lover. Any tutorials of this would be appreciated too.

Howdy. My journal with my current setup is in my sig. But I'm currently using 6 23watt CFLS, and I have recently purchased the materials to double that and add another 6 23watt CFLs. Of course I want to get the most yield I can out of my grow. So would adding say a 150 watt CFL to the...
