    My Steralite CFL Grow

    Day 94 Overall Day 52 Flowering Chopped the second plant today. Could have probably stayed another day or so, but I was running out of space. Pulled 34.36 grams wet from this plant. The previous plant that weighed 17.07 wet ended up at ~4.5 grams. Made some minor improvements to the grow cab...

    Day 91 Overall Day 49 Flowering Well today I harvested my untopped plant. Looks like it might be around 1/8th ish. I expect I will get triple maybe even more off of the other plant... which will likely be harvested in a few days. Looks so good looking forward to smoking some of this :)...

    Day 87 Overall Day 45 Flowering Been a little bit since I updated. Getting pretty close to harvesting at this point I would think... maybe this weekend? Not that bad currently, it was much worse back during the beginning of flowering.

    Day 82 Overall Day 40 Flowering Looking like maybe 2 weeks left, no more fert for either from this point out. All the new clones seem to be doing well... Assuming all three survive I think I might try flowering three smaller plants next time instead of two.

    My Steralite CFL Grow

    Now that my first grow is nearing completion I have started to work on prep for the next round of plants. I plan on taking about a week, after this grow is complete, and tearing apart the grow box so I can upgrade the ventilation, and see about getting this box over 200W. Also I was at Lowes...

    Day 79 Overall Day 37 Flowering I took another 3 clones yesterday which brings me up to 7 total plants now assuming all survive. Looking forward to growing the same plant again just to see how much I improve over my first grow. Slowly getting the pH of the two plants under control, one is...

    Day 77 Overall Day 35 Flowering In an effort to get the pH levels up to a reasonable level I flushed both plants yesterday and as a test added a little bit of baking soda to some of the water for the untopped plant. As of today the pH levels for the untopped plant are around 5-6 depending on...

    Picked up a pH meter at the store today.... stuck it in the soil a few times and it ranged anywhere between 3.5 to 5. That definitely looks out of wack.. any suggestions? I saw some mention of using baking soda to raise the pH.... is this advisable? just curious as a grocery store is nearby :)

    My Steralite CFL Grow

    Looking back at some of my previous posts... Right before I switched over to flowering I had what I thought was me burning them. Looking back I wonder if they were already starved, because I then proceeded to go several weeks without fertilizing and the yellowing really didn't get any better...

    Day 75 Overall Day 33 Flowering Put in a new light for the untopped plant yesterday. All the bud sites on that plant were half way down the plant and I needed something a little closer... should have done it way sooner though. Threw in a couple pics of the inside of the box with the plants in...

    Day 73 Overall Day 31 Flowering A little over a month into flowering now. Everything seems to be going well. Only questions left I guess at this point is when will it be done and how much will the two plants yield :) From my reading it looks like I should cut off fertilizers at least 2 weeks...

    Day 71 Overall Day 29 Flowering Put the clone in dirt day before yesterday. Both the mother and the clone seem to be doing well. The mother looks like it might need a little bit of fertilizer though haven't fertilized it since it was cloned almost a month ago. Also a few pics of the...

    Day 69 Overall Day 27 Flowering My topped plant seems to be doing well... looking pretty these days :) The other untopped plant though still seems to be a straggler, although its been that way since the beginning so I guess I shouldn't be surprised.

    Day 65 Overall Day 23 Flowering Just a quick little update today. The clone is showing roots today so it looks like it survived even though it took a beating. The mother plant is looking pretty good ~1 week after being topped. Also a couple pics of one of the flowering plants.

    Day 64 Overall Day 22 Flowering Added in some epsom salt during the last watering as suggested earlier. Having more leaves turn yellow, but I guess it's natural. If not someone let me know :) Other than that nothing much to report.

    Day 62 Overall Day 20 Flowering Still have purple stems all over the place, been fertilizing every time I water lately with the 8-14-9 Shultz African Violet. The instructions on the bottle say 7 drops per quart every time you water.... Should I be increasing/decreasing this? I've already over...

    My Steralite CFL Grow

    Basically to light proof the box I ended up building a box within the box. The inner box is mostly poly-shield which is basically a reflective surface on styrofoam and all the seams are taped up with aluminum tape. The intake is a long hole cut in the bottom of the inner box. The steralite...
