Okay so we are on week 3 now. Give or take 2 days. I switched my setup to HPS as the light I ordered showed up a day and a half ago. I ended up losing one plant due to the stress of moving but the other three are pulling through. 2 are actually thriving now and eating up all the light.. I put a big oscillating fan from walmart in my office to cool the grow down some. I never saw the plants thrive as much under the CFL's except maybe for the first week and a half. I am just praying that the largest of the three will be a female. lol. They also I think are from 2 different strains.
So right now I am using a 250 watt HPS light / Ballast, and the results are awesome. I barely watered them a little while ago so they may appear a little droopy.
They are looking so great. I just want to lick them when i see em ahaha. I hope they turn really freaking hairy when I flower them. Right now they are 3 weeks old from seedling. How many weeks should I vegg them? Now that they are on HPS I am not worried about them not getting enough light, I am just not sure how long to grow them.
The big one I hope will be female.. bur I would like to get some length on the other 2 plants. So maybe a few more weeks of veggin' ?
The light was so worth it. I returned a few CFL's that I bought and ended up paying like 80 bucks for the kit. It was easy to setup and all you do is plug it in.. I would so reccomend anyone growing to buy one of these if you have the funds. I was around 50$ in CFL stuff and realized I would need much more so I decided to buy this setup.
So I hope you all like what I did... that one plant that didn't make it really depresses me but shit happens I guess and next time I will be ready.
Hell I am already planning the next grow.. I wanna buy some off nirvana and give it a shot.. some really good stuff too. Anyone know any good strains that do good under HPS and that are feminized? Links please ;p
