Default Super Silver Haze CFL Grow Journal-First Grow
Here's my first grow from a silver haze clone. It sat in my window for the veg and I started flowering once I made my ghetto box. She is two weeks into flowering.

I am using:

Lights:
4 30w (2000 lumens) soft white
4 14w (600 lumens) soft white
2 14w (800 lumens) daylight
So that's 200w and 13,600 lumens

Lights are plugged into a power strip through plug-to-socket connectors and then y-splitters.

Box- kitchen cabinet, painted white on the inside. I put a cardboarch box covering the exhaust fan to prevent light from coming in. The fan was just strange, I should have bought a 50cfm computer fan.

Exhaust is a 50cfm bathroom motor.
Intake at the bottom, fan at the top of box.

Soil- MG (i know, i know) moisture control.

PH- who knows? I don't have a meter

Nutes- I am adding 1/2 strength Bloom 0-10-10 right now every other watering because I figure MG already has nutes in it and I don't want to overload.

LST- I have bent her sideways after I cropped the top when she was about 9in tall. It has made all the under branches become tops. There are 5 good tops and 3 more trying to get up. Plus it saves space.

Comments please!

It looks nice and healthy. I think you should bend it completely horizontal so you can get better light distribution.

you might want to move the pot over towards the left wall a little more because the pot is really close to the passive intake and probably making your exhaust fan have to work a little harder.

you could also grab some PVC drain pipe (same dia as the intake hole) and direct the airflow more onto the plant. If you don't do that, I'd cover the hole with black pantyhose to minimize any light leak during your darkness periods. just an idea.

sTOKEd, I like the pantyhose idea and I'll be moving the plant.

Exclamation Update: Silver haze 5th week flower
Starting the 5th week of flower today.

I found some super cheap lights so I added more. Now it's
Lights:
6 30w (2000 lumens) soft white
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?

Wow, thats not too bad. You're on yer way to some nice buds. WTG!
Some yellowing of the leaves is normal during flowring. As long as she still growing buds she's fine.

Exclamation Help!
Shit, I just got home to find out that my plant has just gotten about 24 hours of light. Last night i rearranged soome stuff and screwed up the timer, actually somehow i switched it to 'outlet" instead of timer so it stayed on all night.

Will one mistake like this mess it up?


Do I:
-Leave the lights on the rest of the day and get it back to its normal time tonight?
-Turn it off and give it 12 hours. This option would suck because the box is in my room and would now be flipped on when it's nighttime and off during the day.
-Turn off the lights and let it sit under normal light until nighttime

Any help would be much appreciated.
