I ordered a 3000k MH bulb for flowering and am going to use 4 42w soft white white CFLs as side lighting, so they should get plenty of warm light with the added bonus of some UV light. I thought they would have been bigger thats why I didn't flower at 4 weeks, they will be six weeks old when I begin flowering next week and hopefully will be about a foot tall, atm they are only about 9-10inches tall. I guess with using the MH and them being mostly indica they just didn't get tall real fast or maybe I'm just a shitty grower.

This is my first serious indoor, I grew at my old apartment once but didn't have good lights so the plants didn't turn out great. After that I moved out where I could do outdoor and have been doing that for the last couple years.

Here is a shot I just took of the bent plants, I decided about an hours after I took the other pics that it would be better if I bent them back in towards the pots so this is what they now look like. In the second pic you can see all the branches really shooting up, that is why I love bending them over so much.

They are coming out great. If you can't afford the HPS lights, you can get 150W HPS with Ballast for 20.00

Check it out http://www.e-conolight.com/Product/E...ber=E-MT6H151G

I know 150W is probably not enough, but at 20.00 you can't go wrong, and you also have MH to back it up some. And your CFL's

But yes, your babies are looking really good. Are they femanized seeds?

Nah they arn't fems but I noticed last night that the AK48 #2 and #3 have female preflowers so I have atleast 2 girls. Believe it or not I predicted that they would be female and Afghan #3 is also one I predicted to be female, and predicted the other 3 to be male we will see if I'm right in another week or two.

cool.. hey, what kind of high does the afghan give u? never smoked it... ak48 is such a great indoor strain.. rock on!

Nirvanas Afghan is nearly pure Indica so it should be a heavy stone not much head to it, more of a couch lock type of high.

Kratose I thought about those but the 3000k MH has a little less red and a little more blue with added UV light, so I'm thinking it will do nearly as good a job on getting a good yeild and in theory the extra UV light should provide more potency. Plus my 3 gal pots and the 60$ bulb just drained me so I can't even afford one of the 20$ HPS lights.

The afgan gives a very very strong high, When you smoke it, you tend to just like float off. I remember I would come home from work, fill a bowl up, put on some TV, I would be half way through the bowl, just stopped in my track so stoned I would be just staring at the TV. It is great. Very fluffy, A quarter fills up a baggie np. The smell is different, Almost chemical smell, But not a bad chemical, it such a nice smell, so tasty smelling. Also, whats awesome about this bud, is the taste, it taste just about how it smells. Very good strong taste, its different though. Don't be putt off bye the word chemical, it just has such a smell and taste its hard to describe. Some of the best bud I smoked. I got it from a breeder, and he grew the best afgani bud. Very expensive, 400 a Oz.
