Wednesday was a very stressful day lol... My 6.5 week old plants were doing great, but were looking way too obvious, and my parents confronted me... angrily, haha. i knew that they would try to kill my babies, so i ran home with a couple buddies and loaded them up into the car and got the hell out of there before they got home.
i moved my plants to a friend's house where they are sadly awaiting a new lamp. i can't take my old one, because my parents will notice and then know that i was lying when i told them that i "destroyed them."
i'm thinking about just buying the same 4200 lumen 6500K flouro lamp setup that i have at home for my buddy's house. it cost about 30 bucks. but my dilemma is this:
-I'm tight on cash
-I have a brand new 400 watt HPS system i bought offline that will ship to me in about 7 - 11 days.
i was planning on flowering at his house anyway... but it sucks, because i just don't feel like spending 30 bucks on a lamp that i'll only be using for like a week. however, if its completely necessary, i will do it. i just want to know if there are any cheaper alternatives.
oh yeah, i'm kinda annoyed, because my friend lives with four roommates at his house, and they are all potheads. they're all cool, but the thing is, they're all a bit too enthusiastic about this. my friend assures me that everything will be ok, that he's putting a padlock on his door, and all that shit... but i feel like i'm sending my daughters off to a horny boys only college or something, lol. i'm nervous that they'll try to get at that shit.
not a single person there knows a thing about gardening in general, let alone growing pot indoors. basically i want to teach my friend the basics, but i want to be doing most of the work. i hate it when he tries to tell me something that i've been doing extensive research about for months.
i'm paying for all of it, seeing as how i've already bought it all, and they are my plants. but i'm not unreasonable, i understand that they are harboring my babies, and that they're undertaking most or all of the risk. so i definitely am going to talk to them about perhaps a percentage of the yield going to them. either way, i know that i'll smoke them up big time with this.
i don't know what i'm going to do, lol. kinda annoying situation. my friend already watered them with tap water without knowing the ph, and out of schedule. i don't want people to take it upon themselves to do this stuff. i'll just go there every other day or something and check up on them. that's the plan anyway.
phew, lotta venting lol. anyway, what should i do about the lights? and any other advice?
thanks guys.
