Hello everyone, I was just wondering how I've been doing.........They have been growing for about 2 1/2 months now and I think they look good but idk. they have been in mircal grow soil from the start, I put them in my window for light and water them about every 4 to 5 days as needed. I read about the 12/12 cycle and have started that about a week ago, so for the night 12 I put them in my light proof locker and the day 12 they are in my window like I said above. any advice is much appreciated! Thanks!


:leaf:keep fightin the good fight!:leaf:

My opinion probably doesn't mean much but I think they look pretty good for growng indoors using outdoor light

They look good so far. In the future though...1 plant per container. Think about investing in some better lighting too.

MY FIRST ATTEMPT

Hi


Sorry im replying in this thread but im new and not yet sure on how to post my own stuff..

Anyway.. im from South Africa and we have tons of Sativas growing everywhere! We get most of our stuff from Lesotho which is mainly Swazi Gold. I've added some pics and was wondering what you guys think. They are six weeks old today and about 5 days into flowering. My Space is rather limited so i have to flower now but i dont think that'll be a problem.

So any advice? Feedback?

im no pro but my advise wouldbe as follows,

move your flouro tubes above your plants about 2-3 inch or so from the leaves. also move your cfl closer to the plants again about 2-3 inches away. put your hand between the leaves and the light and if its to hot for your hand move the lights up.

also think about investing in more cfl's one prob wont be enough.

:peace:

Thanx man.. Those two small lights you see down the bottom aren't really my main lights but i use them anyway.. The big one you see hanging from the top pushes out about 2700 lumens which i've heard should be enough. it did, until this morning hang straight above the plant but i've moved it a bit to the side of the plant now so that the whole plant can get some light. It doesn't get hot at all so i leave the light until the leaves get extremely close to the bulb. Like i said its the first time i attempt something like this so i wasn't to kean on buying expensive lights. But it has grown on me, so maybe next time i'll get some hps lights or something

Thanx mate

yea looks pretty good for growing indoors with outside light...you'll have a much easier time with it when you get your lights up and running
