Open Show & Tell , Outdoors 2014

my cherrypies in full sun are my biggest plants and last to go into flower. The greenhouse is in full flower. I think that's my issue with going into flower when I put them outside in the greenhouse to early. Going to harden them off in full sunlight and use supplement lighting next year.

I either seem to under fill or over fill the Iron and I wish they would come out a bit more crunchy.

It takes practice. Try using a measuring cup when pouring the batter on the iron. Start with 3/4 cup batter and increase to get the desired size. Better smaller than too big, IMO, because I hate messes.

ya i start them mar 21st and harden off and bring inside under t5's from mid april till may 24. then i leave them out in growbags where they get the most sun until they show sex.

You start from seeds? t5's,, I know it is a light but what kind of light?

Ya I do, they're a really skinny fluorescent light. The regular fluorescents are t20.

These are good for vegging? Where do I get them, a hydro store?

This is a comparison from last year Aug 1 2013 and July 31 2014. The plant last year got 1.5 hrs more sun in the am 1 hr in the evening.

Ya they're great for small scale veg. I'm not sure if this brand is avail in US but they will have something similar. Fairly inexpensive $34 Bulb and ballast, and great on power

Thanks, Bo, I appreciate it.
Yes, I found them .... very reasonable.

Your very welcome, it's important to keep fluorescents close to the canopy as to prevent streatchy plants, and some t5's are a pain in the ass to move but some you can put on adjustable chains. And ps it's BC, not Bo

Hey everyone, here is my 2014 bubblegum

Bc.... Sorry. I fixed my autocorrect.

Is this needed to go with the light?
NanoTech T5 Reflector ?

This is what I found.
