Super cool to have you pop in here huel, I am a fan of yours. Thanks for all your contributions and for stopping in my thread...

i was lucky enough to meet a person that was running all these strains. The chem dog was tested at high 21%.

regarding the set up, I spent lots of time (and cash) researching. It's been a labor of love.

thats it, I'm getting cfls and suspending them tomorrow. Is the wattage or k rating the most important? I will be starting off at Home Depot / lowes.

thanks

The higher the wattage the better, I personally use 26w (the ones they advertise as " equivalent to 100w). Since my over head lighting is HPS which produces mostly red and yellow light I use 6500k cfl's which are a mostly blue light in an attempt to provide a fuller spectrum of light. I try to hang them directly into the darkest most shaded areas of the garden. I usually have to adjust the lights daily over the first couple weeks of flowering while the plants stretch, you never want the leaves to touch the bulbs.

650: once my lights come on I will be in there hanging cfls TODAY!

Abe: thanks for stopping by and providing some insight. Sure is nice to hear people say "nice first grow" because like I said, I've had some obstacles to overcome outside of the norm of dialing in a new room.

Blaze: thanks man, I vegged for a little over 5 weeks

Very nice and bushy for 5 week veg.

Huel: thanks for the follow up... I'm gonna give the 2700k a try only because they seem to be its the flowering spectrum.... He'll, I may bet both 6500k and 2700k. Never let leaves touch the bulb... Got it.. Thx was wondering about that... Close but not touching.

glad: thanks man, simple shit like that helps me since I have no previous experience to compare my current results to.

Ok...enough bitching...lets look at my bitches again...

Maybe I can divert people's attention (bitching) to focus on to an intentional and ever so blatant dumb newb question...


uhh.. How much do you think I will yeild dry weight?

Oh no not that question! YOU ASSHOLE!! jkjk...your grow looks great. you are steps ahead of alot of noobs. I would be really surprised if you didn't get at LEAST a LB. Keep it up..and don't be afraid to take off alot of those lower shoots. Your tops will thank you.

I agree with FMN, you should get at least a lb, what are the dimensions of the room?

haha... Dope, you got the humor! Grassy for the compliment and for stepping inside....


a smooth elbow total off 11 plants huh? Man I really rocked it!

If you can keep them healthy until harvest time i'd be surprised if you got less than two lbs...

Tough to judge being that i don't know how well these girls are able to yield but a half gram per watt is doable with just about any strain.

Those are 600's though right?

Yep.. 3 of them. 2 hps and I MH.

oh i missed that you had 3...add at least another half lb to what i said originally..
