bro so ghetto on the lights, love it, LoL added 1 to the album, great stuff, plants look great also

Lol. nicely done jumbo. Nice big plants you got growing, and such a nice ghetto light set up. How far are they into flowering?

Oh yeah. By the way. Ill have to take a picture of my final set up here so my picture is more up to date. Ill do it later today

haha thanks everyone! i couldnt figure out any other way to hang em cuz the rafters are real old and the screws kept pulling out of the wood so i had ta break em up into many sepreate hanging hoods, its a hell of a mess of wires lol but i switched to 12/12 on new years eve.. so day 33 i think. lol

I took the girls out of the closet today so I snapped a few more pics of them. I have 5 out of 7 (yup 5 outta 7 eh eh eh) that were girls! Just random bag seed and some cheap lighting! Prob the lowest maint. grow ever. I use MG soil (i know some don't like but f ya) they look fairly bushy too can't wait till they start showing some buds!!! Oh yeah baby....like the 5 gal buckets?? lol

Thanks guys to be honest I'm so green (nice choice of words huh?) at this. I'm pumped to have some decent looking ladies though. My last grow worked out pretty good and I used much smaller pots. The larger 5 gallon buckets (2 bucks at home depot, drilled holes in bottom and used lids as saucers) work great for the plants though. I use the MG soil and transplant the plants 1 to 2 times which Idk but I think it gives it more nutes through the whole thing as opposed to only putting it in one pot. (the MG soil says nuts for 3 months so I figure if I refresh the soil it keeps a little longer??) Anyhow things are going well damn gnats won't leave my plants alone thank god for vinegar!

I use the MG Moisture Control soil. I add no nutes during the whole process. No flush at the end or anything just clip and hang. I wish I had took more pics of the harvest of my last grow but I was to busy smokin it LOL

think this one was picked a little early


The last batch got really sticky and crystaly before I flowered and def after flowering....this batch no crystals before flower....?





These came from 2gal pots in MG soil



I'd say the soil is okay to use although I've had a gnat problem not sure if it come from the soil I just put out some vinegar to kill them off

Thats the stuff but if you live in New England, forget about getting it this time of year, I went in NOV to buy some and got the 64qt size, the guy gave me this big speech about how they had already put it away and they were going to have to go dig it out of a pallet. (well i'm a dick and made him dig it out) I really like the soil, very low maint. no nutes to add and the plants seem to grow really well in it. Just be careful because over watering = over nuting.
