    considering supplemental cfl's

    This is not a bad idea at all if that is what works for you, it will certainly be effective. If you are using a grow box you should look into the side mounted T5 cfl's (long skinny ones). They work great too I've heard. Check it out...

    flowering starts today. HELP!!!

    I think I would even increase it more than that. The general rule of thumb I think with most CFL's is that each plant should have at least one light each for themselves. The more the merrier, don't be shy. For what you can put it together for cost wise (under 50 bucks) get yourself up in the...

    First time grow CFL Monster Box

    When I stop by the hydro store tomorrow I'll be sure to ask the local grow pro about it and see what he thinks too. I would certainly move up in pot size of I knew the yield was going to be increased potentially. We have the room to do it now as well that we wound up with the 3 female's...

    First time grow CFL Monster Box

    Is it alright you think to repot them at this point? Will it not put a lot of stress on the plant? I am certainly open to the idea of it as long as I am not risking too much by doing it. I am visiting a local hydro store here tomorrow and will look into a Bloom Buster like product while I am...

    First time grow CFL Monster Box

    The pots we have them in right now are 1 gallon pots. We thought about going a little bit bigger but it was not going to work when we had 7 of them in there. Just not enough space. Right now we are watering every 2nd day. Each plant gets nearly 2 Gatorade bottles full every 48 hours, or...

    flowering starts today. HELP!!!

    If you are going to be having that many plants, they will without a doubt require more light than they are receiving now. You should check out my Grow Box setup, I am down to three ladies but running 14 CFL's in total. Its been a great success so far...

    That's cause you're an idiot and weren't thinking. Try it a couple of more times and I'll be your pen pal when you're in prison, I promise. Then you can tell me the story about making your a**hole a pocket and bringing some weed in with you. haha COME ON MAN!

    First time grow CFL Monster Box

    Just a quick update for anyone watching... We have now successfully identified and sexed all 7 of our plants. 4 of the 7 were males. We kinda figured going in from seed that we may wind up with about half and half for our first grow. We may have stressed some of the plants a little much in...

    Hey thanks Welshy on the input, much appreciated. Right now we are pretty sure we have 3 males confirmed out of the 7 plants. There are no hanging football shaped sacks as of yet, but the forming of the little nut like looking sacks are already in the pits of the branches. We have 3 confirmed...
