Hi all,
I should start by mentioning that this is my first time growing and it's more of an hobby than anything else.
It all started when a friend came back from mex with some seeds.
As I mentioned in my other thread I have only managed to get 1 female out of 8 plants. Obviously I wasn't pleased with that so I decided to try and get some clones out of it.
I built an aero cloner following the excellent info on this site.
Here is the aero cloner and what happened about 2 weeks after starting it. (all clones rooted)
Ok so at this point I found myself with a mother plant on the balcony flowering despite the very long days
and a bunch of clones that rooted and needed attention.
I decided to go dwc as for some reason I think it will suit me.
I went ahead and built a single plant bucket with the first test clone in it and then I built a larger rez for the other 6 clones.
I have decided to use the lucas formula which I just started using yesterday and this is day 3 of the clones living in their new house.
I forgot to mention that I'm trying to do all this with cfl's. I have some normal full spectrum daylight bulbs called biobulbs (about 30w) and some warm cfls(about 25w).
Realizing that the light was probably not going to be enough and not being able to go for proper hps for heat and ventilation restriction I also bought a 120w cfl ecolight.
I'll post a pic of the lighting in the next post as I am on the 5 pics limit on this one
