Hey,
another first time grow here. You can't have enough of those :mrgreen:

Basically it's a just-for-fun project. Planted 2 seeds about month ago and put them outside. The weather was perfect and they grew fast!
Then I build this quick box to start flowering the smaller one of the two. The other one is bigger and still on the roof (maybe pics when the sun is shining).

Put her on 12/12 today. Northern Lights. Enjoy and comment if you like!

Cool man, best of luck. Interested to see the other one up on your roof haha. What type of lighting do you have in your cab?

For flowering I have one ~15Watt 2700K CFL. I also have a big 6500K so I might use the box for veg if this first try works out fine.

Here's a picture from the bigger plant I am currently protecting from heavy rainfall outside :blsmoke:

Haha right on dude. You're outside plant is looking really healthy. Is your roof flat or do you have some sort of system rigged up to keep the plant in place?

If possible I would suggest getting a couple 42w 2700k and a y splitter for your cab, 15w is not too much for a plant to go on...I think it puts out around 900 lumens, whereas the sun puts out 10,000 lumens

oh but im gonna say MORE LIGHTS lots lots more 42watt are the best for flower id get a minium of six to 8 if you wanna decent yield not to mention mylar so you dont luse that precius light you wont yield much if anything with 15watt for flowering hope that doesnt sound rude, i just know from experince with cfls that more is neccesary and way closer like 2 inchs away hope this helps

10,000 lumens per square foot I believe. Anyway, those plants look sweet, especially the outside one man that one looks badass! Keep us updated!

Oh yeah, MORE LIGHTS!! 42W CFL's are the shit for flowering!
