Thank you all for your comments, this thread was kinda important for me because of all the bullsh*t I heard about CFLs on RIU. Glad to see some kind of debate around it LOL. Thanks for your comment, I totally agree with you. My plant didn’t evolve so well just because of the light but...

Man I appreciate your status. :clap: "The Clone King" you gotta love it ! LOL

By hard to take in, do you mean hard to believe ? It's ok you are free to think that my grow is false. But what would be my interest ? It's not like I have a CFL bulbs company that I am trying to promote lol. I am still a beginner. I did not use many CFLs, it's just a single 85W bulb that I can...

I followed your advices concerning the AK48, thanks a lot ! Here is the result : http://www.rollitup.org/cfl-growing/312418-all-cfl-non-believers-ak48.html Peace !

Actually I started with the Seemorebuds book "Buds For Less". Yeah, not very dense. Of course an HID or HPS would have given some crazy results but I went with the 85W CFL because of the small space I started the plant. When I move to a bigger place I only plan to use the CFLs as a backup...

Thanks yall ! However I don't have the final dry weight because as I explained before my friend took care of the flowering period, cutting and curing. By the time I came back he had already smoked some of his share. Of course the genetics played a part (someone advised me the AK48 because it...

What's up RIU Community ? It's been a while since my last thread. I just opened this new one to make a point, since I registered on this website I read a lot of posts from many many members who doubt and do not believe that a CFL could give a decent result of weed :evil: (yield and potency)...

Nice grow man, the plant looks MAD HEALTHY. I have a broken fridge in my basement, I thought about using it to grow my next plants but it never materialized... You convinced me ! I definitely suscribe. Good Luck.

Congratulations on your survival ! Lets just hope that they dont consider you suspicious because of that "strong smell", I think that any grower here would have been aware of your "activity" if he/she enters the room. The smell during the grow is particular, not everybody would be able to...

Yeah, that's my plan, small grow since I dont wanna get caught (especially over there). I knew that there would be only a few people able to help me with this dilemma. As you said weed is not accessible to anybody, plus I dont think that most Japanese have a good opinion concerning Lady...

High Everybody ! I am BlackBuddha, I've only been growing for a year now and I definitely enjoy it. However, I might move to Tokyo for a job and I wanted to know if any of you knew about it or even got info as a grower that could be useful once I get there. I do not plan to grow many plants...

Damn man, I faced this kind of situation many times, never got caught though. I hope it will be the same for you. After your mission, you better give us a full and nice review of your girl ! (I've been watching this thread from the beginning, I'll be on RIU tonight for sure to know what...

Hey, Could you hook me up with the email to the delivery service you use ? Thanks

Really ? You think so ? For real ? ..............DUH !! How about reading the content of a thread before posting ? You think you can do that ? Later. :joint:

Hi RIU Community ! So here is my overall conclusion of my Purple Widow plant (only organic). FINAL DRY WEIGHT : 19.7 grams (0.70 oz). This is a good pack for me considering the fact that this is my first grow and since I did not use chemical nutes. I could have let it grow for one or two...

Thanks man ! I didn't measure the wet weight because at the end only the dry state matters (to all of us !). I know that it helps as a preview to estimate the final weight but I prefer to wait lol. I will definitely let yall know the final dry weight (it wont be more than half an ounce in my...

High RIU ! Day 68 - Day Of Harvest : So here we go, my first harvest ! After leaving them 58 hours in the dark (it was supposed to be 48 but I fell asleep), it's finally time to cut her. I left it in soil as I was trimming her from the bottom to the top. Since the mini-buds at the top had...

I also got the book, but I am just using it to compare my plants on a day to day basis. I mean, come on, you can't just expect to have the same weight just because you are using the same technique. Were you even growing the same strain ?

Thanks man, the plant has been in the dark for 48 hours (maybe another urban legend but I tried it anyway) so I will trim it in a few hours. I'll post pics ! :mrgreen: Thanks ! I hope so, because I know that using chemical would have given me bigger buds. But for me it was more of a "Quality...

Hi RIU Community ! Day 64 from 12/12 : So here I am :mrgreen:, the Purple Widow has been drinking pure water for almost a week now. I thought I would give her another week but most of the fan leaves lost their very-green color pretty fast, some of them went yellow, some others were even...
