1 month:
So to update you, about 2 weeks ago I built a grow box for my baby. Watering pan, reflective sides, drop in lighting, mounted a computer fan, and put it all on a timer. This seems to handle watering, air flow, and light control exactly how I need it, allowing me to practically ignore her.
Today I switched her to 12/12 and soft white. Flowering process begun! Estimated harvest should be the first of August. As she stands now, she is about 6-8 inches tall, bushy, healthy, many nodes, and a good foot of growth available in the box. I still have not topped her, but I may over the next 2 weeks, depending on how she handles the light change. If she stays bushy I may not top at all. It's still hard to say the expected harvest, but my experiment is all still in line and on track, and I would guess maybe an eighth plus could be had.
As usual, I have provided pictures. And I'll let you be the judge, but my bonsai indoor cfl organic seems to be QUITE successful!
Now I'm anxious for the next month and the beginnings of flowering. Very excited to see what the buds come out like.
So here's the pictures, enjoy, more soon.
