Hello there RIU, it's been about 2 years since I last stopped by, things got hectic. But it's nice to be back! I havnt grown in about 2 years either. I have a new girl in flower right now. I'm not expecting much from her cause it started as a 'just for the heck of it' kinda deal. Well turned out she is a she! Lucky me!
She started as a seed in a solo cup on the windowsill, then she sprouted. I wasn't expecting it to. So I put her outside on my balcony, just because. The lighting wasn't great and it was hot as s*** out there. But she survived and started on some lst, again, just for the heck of it. Now I just moved to a bigger place with a garage, so I repurposed an old dresser into a grow cab. Painted the inside white, added two PC exhaust fans and some lights. Now she is 07 days Into flower. I don't have and flowering nutes yet as I was not prepared for this to go this far, I was gonna wait to get some clones before I did this again. But like an unexpected child, I adapted.
Specs so far...
1 65w cfl 2700k
4 42w cfl 2700k ( $0.59/ea at the local 0.99 store!!! )
Basic MG soil with 40% perlite mix and perlite layer on top
Just honey added to water so far
I wonder how long she ca stay in that pot? All of flower I hope. I thinks it's about 3/4 gal or so.
Let me know what you all think. It's not a perfect setup, but for now it'll work until next go around. The plant has been stressed over and over from heat and moving and all of that, but some how she is still truckin along. Thanks for stopping by.
*pics are before the smaller cfls were swapped with 42 watters
