thats a great idea - will do it. meanwhile i made a fruitfly trap I cut a water bottle in half, inverted the top upside down inside the bottom half - like a funnel. sealed the cut edge with tape, put a nail hole in the upside down lid, poured some red wine in it - caught all the fruit flies...

i'm kind of in the same boat - i dont really smoke - some of my friends do - i'm just growing it because i like doing random fun/challenging things. I will prob end up selling whatever i grow to one of my friends at a discount of course. Also - i've spent like $150 bucks total in my cfl setup...

same setup i have - very awesome that they eat marijuana leaves. i wonder if it really affects them ;D

this is a really good thread i actually had a 5 gallon bucket with compost and worms in it - in my apartment - before i started growing. i did it to help save the world one step at a time- save some space in the garbage dumps. But now i have a good excuse to use the castings...i am going to...

Here's an update on the ladies - they are all doing pretty well, one of the top 44's has weird bottom leaves, but still looks healthy. The baby runt is growing a little more each day. BTW When are these not considered seedlings anymore and officially in vegetative mode? Questions comments...

awesome info. should be a sticky for newbies. + 1 rep

what was the outcome of these buds? BTW this is my favorite thread, it is very informative.

Yeah cfls' all the way - i'm curious to see how this project is going to affect my electric bill, even though they are cfls' they are gonna add up :)

Day 14 everything looks good, just letting them do their thing. the runt is growing slowly and runt #2 is getting bushy and staying small.

Just found this info - guess i answered my own question: "Plants in seedling and clone stage require about 400-500 lumens per square foot. In vegetative growth they require about 2,500 lumens per square foot and in flowering, they require about 10,000 lumens per square foot."

I currently have 4 lights for 5 seedlings - is this ok for now? total of 5800 lumens for 3.75 square feet

Here is mine - made it in photoshop back in the day when i was going through hard times - called "head hurts"

delete please - double post

Thanks TodayIsAGreenday Hey wackymack - It's mylar, not foil, it came in squares, the only way i could find it, but it works. Also i cut the jiffy cups with a razor blade across the bottom and sides when i transplanted. I hope my seeds turn out better, I actually bought them a year ago when the...

started a new thread - under grow journals

That brings us to today. (Day 12) The pots were filled with mixed soil with this approximate ratio: 5-miracle gro moisture control soil - 2 jiffy soiless mix - 3 vermiculite.. The seedlings are all happy now. Three are growing really fast while the other two have some catching up to do. I...

Sept 26th I planted the seedlings in 1 gallon containers Added two more cfls (they were 2700k but i changed them to 6500k from somebody's advice) Added yeast in a liter bottle with holes drilled in the cap (1 packet of yeast, 3/4 liter water, and like 10 tablespoons of sugar). Temperature...

5 sprouted by Sept 21st, so I planted them in Jiffy cups in soiless jiffy mix (mostly peat moss) and hung two 5500k cfls above them. I kept them in a tupperware container with the bottom filled with water - per advice of somebody.

Hi everybody, i had a thread going and then realized it should have been in a grow journal, so here I go. I bought 2 packs of seeds from marijuana seeds .nl One was a Top 44 pack and the other was a seed mix including: BIG BUD NORTHERN LIGHTS BUBBLEGUM WHITE WIDOW CRYSTAL ICE I wanted 2-3...
