What do you guys think?

White Ryno · Feb 22, 2010

Hey all, my ladies are about three weeks into flower. They have five 26 w CFL and four 42w CFL on them. Growing in Miracle Grow Organic Garden Mix with Bone Meal mixed in. Feeding with Green Thumb Super Bloom. Went pretty cheap here but I think I'm seeing some pretty solid results. Some of the leaves got burnt here and there because I'm a dumbass...but I'm trying to keep them as close as possible! Any input, advice, questions, etc are welcome!

well there lookin good i hope you consider doin a 400 watt next grow.
your gonna see a huge difference in yield

White Ryno · Feb 22, 2010

i've considered it and when i move places this summer i'm hopin that its a more attractive option...right now though the exhaust would be too much of a pain. im an attic grower and i def would worry about heat without the proper exhaust. hopin to get a semi decent yield though! i've used quite a bit of LST to encourage lower growth with better light penetration. we'll seeeee

CaptainGreen · Feb 22, 2010

Haha not too cheap when they look like that very nice

just remember to remove the fertalizer I think its like 3 weeks before harvesting I forgot that my first year horrible

White Ryno · Feb 22, 2010

yes sir! will do

greenthumb213 · Feb 22, 2010

How many plants you got under those cfls?

White Ryno · Feb 22, 2010

CyberSecks · Feb 22, 2010

ya im interested in seeing the results

White Ryno · Feb 23, 2010

most definitely...tune into the thread here and there and i will update with more pics along the way!

White Ryno · Feb 26, 2010

hey guys...just some more pics of the ladies. you can't tell here but one of the plants' pistils are turning purple...i dont know the strain so i cant tell if this is some sort of nutrient issue or if i should be really excited about it haha. however i should say that this plant is seems to have lower resin production that the other

They look really nice for a CFL grow...my only recommendation would be to get away from the MG soil. I just like to know exactly what nutes I'm putting into my plants.

White Ryno · Feb 28, 2010

most definitely...i'm seeing some nice results but it took me literally 16 seedlings of bag seed to do it...sorta played Darwin on em. but yeah in the future i plan on investing a little more money. just wanted to get my feet wet! :bigjoint:

but thanks for the post! check back in, i'll put more up here in a few days.

does bubblegum have really bright pink pistils at 4 weeks of flower? cuz my one baby sure smells bubblicious

What is the temp in your room at night and at day. Plants are lookin very nice by the way. But the tinfoil must go. White computer paper would be 10x better than that tinfoil. :leaf:

looking good Subscribed.

White Ryno · Feb 28, 2010

during the day its about 75 deg but at night it may drop down to 65 and sometimes even 60 (although rare). My attic is very poorly insulated but I think I've got a decent set up given budget restrictions. The heating ducts for my room run through the attic so I disconnected one of them and ran it into my grow area. this works pretty well but because heat escapes so easily I also have a small space heater on a low setting in there.

As for the foil...lmao I just threw this shit together without really doing much research. I watched Jorge's first movie after I had begun and they straight shit on my tin foil! But yeah next grow will have better reflective surfaces

White Ryno · Mar 5, 2010

Hey guys just a little update on how they are looking. The last picture is the only one of this plant because I ran out of time uploading. Will try to get others up soon

PBFseedco. · Mar 7, 2010

Amazing set up indeed. :clap:

The reason i asked about the temp is because they say that when the hairs start turning like that early they are HERMIE so keep an eye out. I only know this because some one saw one in my CFL grow. This can be caused be 15 or more degrees fluctuation or heat or light bunch of things. But it also could just be the strain. Just keep an eye out! Looking very nice gona have a lot of delicious tastey nuggets! :leaf:

White Ryno · Mar 7, 2010

i actually did have one hermie! was pissed cuz it seemd to be my strongest plant. but anyways, this lady hasnt pulled any cross dressing moves on me yet. i'm thinkin its strain specific

mayhem8324 · Mar 7, 2010

Plants look frickin' awesome. Growing 2 white rhino's and a bagseed right now. Hope they grow up as big and strong as yours!

prototypeone · Mar 7, 2010

Thats a great set up. Like others have said, just replace that tin foil. You can paint the surface with white paint, or even get mylar if you are feeling adventurous. Plus rep for sure, I hope my grow when I get it going looks that good

growone · Mar 7, 2010

nice 1st grow! i use MG Organic garden myself
it really isn't bad but it has a few quirks, if you toss some dolomite in there, things will go even better
other than that, this grow looks pretty sweet

What do you guys think?
