Taking me 3 months to make my desk. Definitely not going to build anything else again. But totally worth it in the end, especially with the plant to top it off :), life's good.

Ninja as.

Day 44. Day 20 Flowering.
Added the extra 130W CFL bulb, and can already see signs of bushiness and faster growth.
Only problem is temp reaches 28c - 31c, and humidly goes down to a 35% pretty fast.artflow_201604260213.png Next grow project. Im abit of a creative freak.


P_20160428_135040.jpg Plant at day 42 - 44 started showing yellow leafs.


P_20160428_135117.jpgIs this pic of my hand a reasonable height for flowering??

Your plant will at least double in size during flower. If you want to see how fast i can show you pics from my current grow from day 1 to day 13 they really take off. So the longer you wait the bigger it will get, consider your space.

You're gonna need some more head room for flowering if you aren't going to do topping, LST, or super cropping.

Also, some will say blasphemy but with limited light source such as yours, I would read up on defoliation. It will allow the low powered light of CFL's reach to lower bud spots on your canopy.

awesome dude! defoliation is a good choice, gonna start learning about it today. should i put netting up before anything else?? how many inches away from the light should i put netting?
 
Holy shit if you get about a pound off any plant under that light and size grow room I'll bow to you sir! I highly doubt it at all! I thi k you were probably pretty spot on for the 40g man!

Well, I hate to self promote...but I am 30 days into flowering in my current journal...multi-topped, Scrog grow with a lot of defoliation or 'lollipopping'. I invite you to take a peek.

I'd try and get your net halfway between your surface of your soil and the light. This will give you a decent volume to fill out during flower. But really you will have to see what's best for your plants and grow space. Just remember you can give your plants a good amount of abuse as long as the rest of your variables are up to snuff

Man that's what I recon haha! A fucking pound Jesus! If anyone gets a pound off an auto I'll pay good mo eu to make them my farmer joe haha
i like to think i can achieve 1 pound so i can get a massive yields lol, whats the largest amount of bud (similar set-up and all) that you know of that someone has achieved?

1-4 ounces is realistic. However idk that autos lifespans. My breeder said my auto would be done on day 80-100 and on day 80 its still in veg so its kind of a guessing game

Try getting some additional cfls and lamps and help get the lower branches some light
I should have sent this earlier.

f*cking awesome dude! simple and very affective setup! how big was the grow room? im aiming for a similar setup!
Its a 2.5x2.5x5ft tent. I plan on getting a second tent a 4x4 and doing a cxb3590 build this fall. Then i will keep this set up as the veg area and flower in the larger tent.
