hey guys ,

this is my first indoor grow just started flowering last friday after a bit over a month of veg, using miracle grow soil and fox farm neuts, started low ppm 2nd week in veg with growbig and bigbloom, stepped up ppm slowly , now using about 800ppm of tigerbloom every 3 days or so

Anyway growing 4x fem utopia haze 2 x northern lights 2x lasqueti haze, I believe all have turned out female, ive been looking daily for signs of balls and all i see are little white hairs and the beginnings of flowers i think. Tbh the plants are kinda cramped in there I thought a few would turn out to be male and i would have more space for the rest but atm its looking like all female, welcome your opinions and any advice

much appreciated

vegged for about a month exactly , they are about 2 ft tall or so. the northern lights says 50 days and the ut and the other say 9-10 weeks, 5 are ut feminized they all turned out girls, and the 2 each of the other ones also turned out female guess im really lucky

i got a few at stealthhydro.com they had a kit of 2 lamps with 2 bulbs dual spectrum 2 they call them, but i just found a site by searching for the bulb names on google Sunlite brand SL85/30k or 6500k to buy the others.

you guys have any idea what running 5 85 watt bulbs and a fan is gonna add to my elecrtic bill just a guess? havent got my bill for the month from the electric company yet

Very nice grow!

500 Watts will be about $25-45 increase depending on where you live. (For a 12/12 light cycle)

watts are useless info with out the your cost per kilowatt/hr from your local power company, i pay 0.31$ witch would cost a little over 85/month on 16/8 for ur lights that ur running

Hey. . .plants look fabulous.
Read that if you turn the CFL's horizontally you would get more light on those babies.
