    [Grow Journal] First ever grow, using CFLs

    I'm in the process of building a cabinet dedicated strictly to flowering. The dimensions are 2" x 2" x 6" (LxWxH). Trying to get a constant grow going so I'll always have some smoke.

    [Grow Journal] First ever grow, using CFLs

    4 weeks into vegging, I began using Grow Big (1/2 tsp per gallon of water) every other watering. I started this grow with 4 plants and now only have 2 that are still in the grow cabinet. The other 2 were removed for different reasons. I’ve named them Lola and Sweet Baby Jane as a hoped...

    [Grow Journal] First ever grow, using CFLs

    That's something I'm still debating. I think I'm going to build a 2nd cabinet and use it for flowering only. I want a perpetual grow and trying to get at least 4 oz a month.

    [Grow Journal] First ever grow, using CFLs

    I decided to start the "girls" on Grow Big (1/2 TSP per gallon of water) so on 8/23/2009 they got their first taste. If they need it, I'll water again tomorrow with plain water.

    Super Cropping - question??

    Would be worth it or even possible to supercrop an already LSTed plant?

    I started the LST and I'll FIM this week once the vertical growth starts again.

    [Grow Journal] First ever grow, using CFLs

    I LST'ed the tallest of the girls. She's 3 weeks old and 8" tall. Still no nutes, yet, just water with lemon juice to keep the pH below 7. The plan right now is to wait until 4 weeks old to start with 1/4 tsp/gallon Grow Big. Reduced light to 8 26 w 6500K CFLs. So far she's gotten 1 week...

    [Grow Journal] First ever grow, using CFLs

    Yesterday afternoon, I transplanted the three of my plants that were able to stand on their own into 6" pots using Fox Farm Ocean Forest soil. While I was moving the shortest plant, I discovered that this plant did not have a short stem, as I had thought, but had it's stem buried horizontally...

    Droopy leaves.

    I'm 2 weeks into an indoor grow and I'm having similar issues with the drooping leaves on one of my kids. I just transplanted today into Fox Farm's Ocean Forest and have been using water with lemon juice (i plan on switching to vinegar once this gallon of water is done). Hopefully my plant perk...

    [Grow Journal] First ever grow, using CFLs

    I had my plants on 24/0 for about a week and a half then switched to 20/4. That's what they are on now. I don't plan on changing it again until I switch to 12/12. I'm probably looked at least another 2-3 weeks of vegging before going 12/12.

    [Grow Journal] First ever grow, using CFLs

    Thanks to smokin1 for the news that Smith & Hawkens are having a going out of business sale. Nutes were 40% off. I was able to get Fox Farm's Grow Big, Tiger Bloom, and Big Bloom all for $24. Had to go to the hydro shop for the Fox Farm Ocean Forest but a bag of that was on $24. In a couple...

    first grow

    I'm 2 weeks into my first grow (indoor) and I have a similar problem with the tips of some of my leaves (no nutes added yet, I plan on waiting until flowering). I bought a pH/moisture tester and found that my pH was too high. I've been adjusting the pH of my water with lemon drops so hopefully...

    [Grow Journal] First ever grow, using CFLs

    I'd like to limit the height of the plants to about 3 feet max. So I hope these 6" pots give my roots enough room to stretch.

    Stealth Cabinet Blueprint

    I had the same issue with high temps in this same cabinet. That's what made me switch from mounting the power strips on the shelf to the chains hanging from the ceiling. It's given me a little better air flow. My temp is still reaching 90.5 degrees F with lights on. I finally got my grow...

    I've got 6" pots for transplanting. Will that be big enough so that I only have to transplant once? Don't want to shock the plants more than is necessary.

    [Grow Journal] First ever grow, using CFLs

    Thanks. I'll probably transplant tomorrow or Saturday. I want to get some Fox Farm soil to use for the transplant and I just haven't had time to get to the shop this week. I don't plan on using any nutes until flowering but may just buy them while I'm there. Which Fox Farm nutes do you use for...
