Super Silver Haze CFL Grow Journal-First Grow

2 14w (600 lumens) soft white
2 14w (800 lumens) daylight
So that's 230w and 14,800 lumens in a 2ftx1ft growing floor.

Also I got rid of the hanging light and used one with a reflector so I could aim it at the lower buds.

And I put some pantyhose over the passive intake to keep light out. I wasn't able to move the pot away from the intake because it is getting a little tight in there.

The plant has some problems with some of the lower leaves yellowing, getting spotty. Not sure exactly what is wrong but I think some of it happened when I added MG bloom enhancer. I stopped that after one application and moved on to a 0-10-10 bloom nute that I use every other watering at half strength. Just a little gun shy about adding nutes after (i think) burning it.

Does that look like nute burn, or something else?

The top of the plant looks nice and healthy though. The buds are getting bigger every day. Upward growth seems to have stopped, or slowed way down.

I have heard Super silver haze has a 10 week flowering period. Based on the pics does it look like there's 5 weeks left?

AWE..... looks a little like my 1 lil girl

I let her sit out in the room for a few hours before putting her in the dark. Now she'll be flipped but not horribly. At least I'll already be asleep when it kicks on.

I hope i didn't scar her for life, especially this far on. Only about 4 weeks to go, don't want to lose it now.

Peace

You won't.It'l be fine!
Just make it happen where it wont do that again,lol.

Here's a couple pics from today. The only difference I noticed this morning (after she had a really long 24 hour daylight on thurs/friday) was that some of the buds' hairs are standing more on end- like she stuck her branch in a light socket.

-Cut off some of the fan leaves for better light penetration
-It's getting tight in the box
-Starting to smell stronger, I was wondering why it wasn't stinking, so that's a good thing
-Buds slowly getting bigger and more dense.

Question- Anyone know if I should expect a lot more growth in the next 20-30 days? If so, in what way?

here are the pics.

they are really nice. have u harvested them yet? show pics if u have and how much u got.

i was thinkin myself of buyin super silver seeds and im planning on growing with cfls as well so this thread i really liked. keep up the good work
