New CFL Grow

i like your setup man good light coverage! have any started to show sex yet, or are they all clones from guarenteed females? i read your thread, but i dont think you mentioned unless i missed it.

well anyway good luck with the mites. look up FlOjO. he has a great tutorial on getting rid of spidermites, if you need any additional ideas.

rep+ for the cfl's man! come check out my journal sometime, i am on day 45 or so of veg using cfl's only so far!

Wow! Did I really forget to mention that these are all gauranteed clones? What a kettle head:wall:
Yes, there are 3 Purple Urkel Clones and 5 Grape Ape!
Thanks to all for continued props on here!:weed:
 
I finally got my camera! SO I took a pic of my light set up ( I could take better pics of that for people who haven't seen lights :dunce:) I am also putting up pics of the girls. Please feel free to tell me what you think. They have all been on flower for 5 days now. In those five days the amount of growth has continued to amaze me.


In the pics, the girl in the 5 gal water bottle, as well as the two in the brown pots are Purple Urkel (they were veggin for a while.) The other 5 were vegging for 2 weeks and I can't remember what they are (I know they are puple somethin)

Looks hella good bro.
 
Damn looking good bro...us cfl farmers have to stick together. Were not looked to fondly of around here somtimes (HPS GROWERS). Your setup gives me confidence though. Jelous of your clones i have 9 clones right now trying there ahrdest to take root.... as of now not goin to well i dont think. Keep up good work....looks like were about at same stage so will be fun to see how our harvest differ and look alike!!!!!!!

Had a chance to read over your GrowJournal. Looks good so far. How far do you think the closest CFL is to your plants? If you are going to flower with CFL, they gotta be 2700k and you gotta have em super close like within an inch or 2 of your bud sites.

And spider mites, how do you think you got em? I don't know much about how they make it into your grow.
 
Okay, well first of all . . .My lights:All 19 or 20 or whatever are all the same. The 23W CFL's, 1600 Lumens, @2700K. Keep in mind, these are the lights everyone keeps baggin' on. So far, so good. I was told to keep my lights 3" away from the tips throughout the entire grow. Yeah, I decided against that. The meter on my lumes stays buried til about 2/3 of the way down the outsides of my plants and I keep them as close to the leaves without touching. I have to adjust my lights, on average, 5 x's a night since they have been in flower. So far only the tip of ONE leaf has burnt, so I'm pretty happy with that.
Told y'all I'd have pics and I do. Took the pics right before spraying each plant. Definately are NOT spider mites, no one here seems to either know or care as to what they are, no harm in growth and they seem to be diminishing GREATLY, if not totally irradicated:weed:
BTW, Each set of pics for each plant begin with a pic from as close to top center as I could get. Thats about the only way to tell which are which. The one in the alhambra jug and the two in the orange pots are Purple Urkel, and the rest are Grape Ape

Where in the hell am I, bro there lookin sweet. I also, keep my lights about as close as I can get them without them burnig. I opted out on the 2 to 3 inch deal, I hate strechy plants. Dude, you were talking about my setup being nice, but your is killer. Well much props on the good grow, peace.
 
nice use of hinges haha. so what are ur xpected(hopefull) yeild from this grow, looks to be a good amount considering theyre all fem's :joint:
 
BTW I forgot to mention, but for the last few days I have been puttin in smokin SESSIONS in my grow room. I don't know, I'm doin' somethin right, 'cause this shit's outta control. I'm gonna take true measurements tomorrow and compare to my first measurements. SHMOKE ON!!!!
