I've searched around and I wanted to start a discussion on this to see if anybody else has any neat ideas. I like mixing my cannabis with other herbs and leaves (tea leaves, mint, etc) to get some extra layers of flavor. Don't get me wrong - I love the flavour of straight cannabis, but I like...

yeah that'd be cool. obviously not in the dark period, but in the lights-on period, that sounds like a good idea... maybe make sure you have a screen in your window incase bugs wander in!

If that's a 6500K bulb, yeah that's a pretty good deal I'd say. I couldn't find any local stores less than like 12 dollars where I live. Of course, for the other spectrums, my local Walmart has them for 7 or 8 bucks when they are in stock (not the daylight 6500K spectrum though).

Depending on where you live, the rates do increase in the winter. Here in Canada they do. The rate increase won't be too much. The way I see it for your situation, with the amount of lights you have, it won't be a very large increase. Just make a conscious effort to save energy in other places...

The temperatures won't raise too much - just make sure that you have the proper air circulation inside. Let's assume you have 6x23W CFLs. 6*23 = 138 total watts = 0.138 kW. Electricity bills charge you based on a certain rate per kWh, so you need to know that rate. It ranges from about 5.5...

I ramped the amount of lights up, but my MAX lights were: 11 x 42 W CFLs [2700K Spectrum] 2 x 42 W CFLs [6500K Spectrum] So, a total of 13*42 = 546 actual CFL watts, or about 33 000 lumens I'd say.

Okay guys, I'm not dead. Exams finished, and I've been busy catching up with life. Oh, and I've been blazing SLH every chance I can get!!!! Here are the answers to random questions people asked: 1. I got these seeds from the Attitude seedbank, and yeah they were feminized. 2. My topping...

Give me you email address and I'll add you to MSN, yeah

No idea really... Just fiddle around in the menus. Just leave me visitor messages then - I check fairly often.

Awesome man... If you have any questions, just shoot me a private message (I get email notification that way so I won't forget). I'll help you as best I can!

That was the weight after 1 week of drying. It was before the cure. They were pretty much dry after that though , but I'd estimate I may have lost .5 ounces or less during the cure, since I've never noticed the jars very moist when I burp them... They smell phenomenal though!

Yeah that was just one plant! And I haven't even tried any of it yet... By the time it dried I'd started final exams... Soon though!

Check out my grow journal for a ton of pics, but here are a couple of the setup. A few lights were off just for the pic, but they are all usually on!

Hey Chase, Check the "advanced marijuana cultivation" section on this forum. There's a sticky called "Uncle Ben's Topping Method to get 2 or 4 MAIN Colas". I did the method to get 4 main colas. Actually, I accidentally topped a bit higher, and got 6 colas (3 large and 3 small), but the aim...

It's a sativa-dominant, yeah. It wasn't that hard to grow (although it was my first grow, and I gave her everything she could ever want!). She was a lick under 3 feet from the base of the stem i believe. Also, I want to just clear up that my yield will probably be more like 6.3 ounces - I've...

I topped it at the 3rd node - I meant to top at the 2nd, but I screwed up lol.. So I had like 3 main colas, and 3 half-colas...

(I couldn't post a fourth pic above for some reason) Last pic:

Just thought I'd drop a post in this forum - I've got an entire grow journal for it (see my sig). Anyways, I used 100% CFLs on this grow, with the max at any one time being 13 CFLs at 42W each (=546 W, about 33000 lumens). I can't praise side and under-lighting enough. It really works wonders...

Thanks for the comments everyone! Already the buds are smelling awesome (actually smells a bit lemony!). I'll get more pics up eventually. As to the weight, I am going to weight it again in about 1.5 weeks to see if I lost some weight to moisture. Anyways, thanks for the comments, and trust...

Yeah man, for sure... Here's two quick pics of it all in jars. They are the standard size canning jars, like 1.5 Litre or something like that. Let me know if it's hard to get a size reference with these pics. I'll get some more pics up later, but I'm in the middle of a pretty intense study...
