PLEASE READ!- 9 inch plant going well...i hope, check it out, help me out.

SOMEBEECH- why only 14 g dry??? people have told me ill get over 1 oz easily.

Juggalo - can i still flower well with cool white 4100k and full spec 5000k? coz ya cant get those 105 watters or any higher in warm white(2700K).

i was thinking of just buying a few 65 watter warm white, or one 65 wattter warm white ,and one 42 watter warm white.?

i just wanna get this done as fast as possible. any other handy hints to getting it done faster?

....anyone?

Well Mike imma have to give it to you like this (no homo). i have ( 10 ) 23 watt'er cfl's (mix of cool and warms), ( 2 ) 42 watt'er warm cfl's, and ( 1 ) 105 watt cfl. I have the right amount of light but i dont think that i vegged her long enough to get no more than 1.5 oz. dried. And i'm currently 37 days into flower, to get close to 2 oz. i think imma have to flower for about 30 days the way this thing looks. But the only thing that may be different between me and your grow is that i topped my plant right before i threw her into flower, so that did slow the flowering time down. but sorry bro, cfl's just aren't the best thing to flower with. They work but its just a slllllllloooooooooooowwwwwwwww process when it comes to flowering. If you want 2 oz. and thats your goal, I'd say get a total of ( 4 ) 42 watt'ers warm and then that 65 watt'er and that will be what you need. As far as speeding up the process, like i said earlier your going to have to really take care of her so that the growth isn't stunted or slowed. Like in my case i had to transplant out of the 2.5 gallon pot into a 5 gallon pot because growth slowed really bad. How much time do you have to finish this up? You can't really be impatient when it comes to this shit man because you'll fuck to plant up by doing to much. You gotta think, this is natures plant that is moody and very sensitive, so time is exactly what it takes for this plant to do what it really wants to do. You could cut the the bitch up 4 weeks into flower, but like i said the smoke would be something that would only keep you high for 15 minutes IMO. But grab some more bulbs. water, water, feed. And get some fans on her to build stem and branch strength. Sit back and smoke some bowls and kinda forget about her for the next couple months other than taking care of her. I know how it is bro, always checking on her to see what she's looking like. Hope this helps out bro!!!

lol i check mine every 2 hours to make sure for some reason,not even a week in on mine yet.and mike heres the thng about lumens,ur always gonna get the highest lumens so if u buy a bulb with 3000 lumens and u have 5 ohers with 1800 ull get 3000 lumens,lumens do not add up plants only absorb the more lumens,the biggest ammount.at least thats what my friend said,like me im perfectly fine with using one cfl,even if i only get 2 grams,but if i get a little extra cash im gonna buy one more bulb and this time ill get the bulb that absorbs as much watts as i can the highest CFl they have ill get!and then ill have that and the 23 watter and itll be nice

Another thing to add: Have you ever heard about using molasses? This stuff works pretty good in fattening (spelling) up the buds. I'd say add about 1 tablespoon/per gallon of water about 2 weeks into flower or when ever you see some white hairs. You can tea the molasses ever three waters, and add it to the plant. Don't over do it (I did it my first time) in the first molasses feeding, go 1 tblspn for the first time then you can increase the dosage as you feel. Just don't add that shit every water, you don't want an iron lock-up. It doesn't look pretty on the plant!!!

thanks guys that really helped alot,


my issue today was trying to find somewhere to put her, lol. my mate has now said he'll take her but he'll have to move his 2 plants outdoors and keep mine inside his bedroom, i don't know what set-up we'll have yet, but ill keep this thread going so stay tuned.

and just a question, how far does the cfl ontop of the plant have to be away from the top? its a warm 28 watter.

im thinking about geting a 125 watt cfl, 2700k, but will that help much?

its a big investment for me seeing as i am un-employed at the moment, and living off my allowance, lol.

alrighty, thanks again guys, alot of good advice.

laterz

Yeah it will certainly help, with that 125 watt'er compared to the 28 watt'er. I would ask your mate, how does he plan on growing the rest of this plant, because if the plants environment is too much of a difference how you were growing it at your home then it could shock it. Mike these next three weeks are really gonna determine how your plant turns out. If you put that plant in too much of a shock right now in its delicate stage, it can hermie on you. I'm not trying to scare you but I am making you aware that unforeseen things can happen if your not careful. Late

yeah i know, its risky business but it has to be done, were moving to plant to my mates place. lol. and the box im using at my mates house at the moment, is goin to be moved to my other friends house also, so there will be no change in setup. just diff surroundings lol.

probably gonna pick up a 125 watt 2700K envirolite sometime soon.

more pics tomorrow. laterz guyz

ur grow doin good?

yeah shes lookin okay. just wanna smoke those buds, lol. there are no visible 'buds' yet tho, just a few white hairs.

the hairs r a good sign though at least,my baby has 2 leaf sets now and more r coming from the middle i see them sprouting,off of one CFL!!!!so yea,i just cant wait till i get my splitter and other cfl then i got 2 bulbs at least and im going to LST my plant,someone told me without lst ill get no more then 10 grams but with it i can get up do an ounce maybe ounce and a half if i have 2 lighyts

yea they will come. but i know u will get 2 ounces dnt worry bout wat them other people are saying.

i just want somewhat of a yield

hurry mike and get more pics.

lol, im seeing the plant tomorrow, so more pics are comin, i havent seen her in about a week, wonder how shes doin, lol.

lots and lots of pics tomorrow. laterz guyz

cant wait to see dem pics dude!

here we goooo....


my mate has put it in a tent...little bit of light leakage during dark period, will this turn her Hermie? i fucking hope not.

ill have it all under control in a few days, me and my other friend are taking the plant to his place, and we'll do it right. lol. i think my mate got a little lazy and neglected everything a little bit. but shes looking okay, i just hope a few days of shitty dark periods won't affect her.

anywayz, heres the picz....

LOL, At the pipe cleaners...!

Looks good thought, little stretched! Did you top her?

lol, my tying down technique, lol. and nah i didnt top, what u think of her? she doing okay???
