    Thumbs up Two 23w cfls - 43g yield!

    Hi all - I've got a small grow box - 1 x 2 x 2ft I built a few years back fitted with 2 - 23w cfl. It's got a PC fan venting through an integral carbon filter with lightproof passive intakes.
    I grew out 4 of my usual grapefruit hashplant clones in a 6qt rubbermaid type storage box (w/ added drainage holes). Flowered for 10 weeks in miracle grow potting soil + some perlite, some garden compost and a tablespoon of Bat guano. I fed them 2-3 times with fish/kelp emulsion, and one dose of 1/2 strength miracle grow bloom booster. Plain water with molassas for the last 2 weeks or so. I LST the hell out of them, some bent nearly to the rim of the pot. Some buds are within 1 inch of the bulbs - they of course grew the largest and densest - as dense as my HPS grow.
    This is about as simple basic vanilla as it gets - without anything fancy, here's what you can get...

    Out of the jar, onto the scale - 43.4g!! (yes - I zeroed out the container.)
