Hey there Spliffie. Thanks for your feedback. My first lot of CFLs were: OSRAM DULUX EL LONGLIFE, 20W/21-840 220 - 240V - 156mA 50-60 Hz - Germany (These are the specs on the light) They work really great ... had 'em for 2 yrs + and still going strong, however the downside is that...

Hi Doobie - thanks for your comments. Hope your grow is going well - I'm sure you will enjoy ... will keep a look our for your journal - grow hard brah! TC

15 July First pic shows my clones which are a bit scrawny and neglected under the CFLs and poor ventilation ... note the yellowing leaves on one of the girls I was able to correct this by giving it a N heavy fert for a couple of weeks. This grow worked out even better as I was to use a...

12 July I think I gave the plants the chop around 9 or 10 July after a 48 hour dark period.... lol I can't be too sure as my usual efficient record keeping was neglected around this time ... wonder why? :blsmoke: Anyway clones are ready to grow I'm keen to get em under a HID as they look...

4 July - Independance day!:hump: nothing to do but admire ... all leaves are yellow, buds still seem to be growing but noticing more brown hairs, they are smelling really beautiful - not the stankness of skunk but a fruity plum grapey smell - cut a sample bud from lower canopy ... just...

26 June These photos show my manicured buds from the 2 indies. Only got a couple of ounces but have never ever had this much personal smoke ever so I am very pleased. I am also very impressed with the taste despite the premature harvest. Very earthy taste with mean couchlock like stone. I...

25 June and then there were were two ... heaps more space for these girls and I center them under the 400w HPS

22 June alas ... discovered this arvo that the indie girls are in fact indie transsexuasls!! ie hermies ... my fuck up either light leaks or temp ... ot whatever ... anyway I am so paranoid about growing seedy head that I resolve to immediately cull the 'indies' ... with the benefit of...

18 June 2004 watered all plants yesterday ... according to my grow diary I made a mistake in mixing my fert mix :cry: ... I got my proportions all wrong ie added 10 ml of EJ bloom to 4l h20 ... should have been 8l h20 ... to correct the mistake I carefully emptied the pot water trays and...

4 june 2004 Pleased with spread of canopy but with later grows I am to discover the benefits of scrogging eg Killascrog screen see attach ... it's da shit!!

29 May big drink H20 only for plants today. last feed am 26 May. Rearranged so tall plants on outside and 2 shorter ones with Indica phenos in middle. added a more ties to taller plants as these leggy girls were spreading and taking up too much space.

These are 1st photos of my 1st grow approx 6 weeks after germination. They are only Nirvana IM seeds ... so it's a bit of a lucky dip. Flipped to 12/12 light cycle approx 2 weeks before this date and was very pleased to positively idnentify female calyx – see close up!

Hey peeps! Frustrated at the price of decent buds fluctuating around the price of gold and silver I finally resolved to grow my own. I learnt to grow over the net ... RIP overgrow ... in the spirit of giving back I submit my very 1st grow :mrgreen: tadah! First up here's a basic list of...
