3 Random Bag seeds All CFL Grow!!

Ok well I'm Re-posting this because I have to after that site hack and all... but all is well, I still have all the Photo's just need to re-post it :-o
So Me and Bquamb are currently growing some random bag seeds using only CFL's from seed to harvest! For Veg cycle we used 2 4100K 200W CFL's they are huge btw! And in flowering we are using 6 2700K CFL's at 3 different sizes and Watts. We did all of the vegging in a portable closet that we made into a grow closet and for flowering we have them in a grow tent (3 feet wide 2 feet deep 5 feet tall)
For nutes we are using the Flora series. We are using Flora grow, micro and bloom. For soil in the veg stage I used up the last of our organic soil that had the lowest number of N-P-K values in the soil because I wanted to control how much nutes they had also it was to help the seedling not get nute burned right away. Now for soil we are using ProMix from our local hydro store and the owner there uses it to grow in as well he said its great soil to grow with its all pre-mixed and ready to go!
I water them ever 3-4 days and every third watering i make sure there is runoff so there is no build up of nutes in the soil.
I try to keep the Temp at about 25 deg Celsius and a humidity of about 40-45%
Light cycle threw veg was 18-6 and for Flowering we are going with 10-14 yes thats right 10 hrs of light and 14 hrs of darkness! From a pro source i was told they will grow much much faster threw flowering witch I want because Im on a time schedule (Going on Vacation next month) so they need to be harvested and drying next month or ells someone will have to take care of them for me.
When we put them into the grow tent and into flowering one of the plants just never got happy in there so to free up some space in the tent for the other 2 that are doing great I put the un-happy one outside up on the porch so if all goes well with that plant it will go back into veg and keep on growing threw summer and flower at the end of summer, if not and it dies meh that is totally ok because it prob would have died in the grow tent anyways.
Sorry to the followers of this journal from before that I didn't get this back up earlier but now you should have like 3 pages of just pics that im re uploading to flick threw :-o and when the lights come on in a hour I will take some new pictures of the plants because ever since I lost all my last months posts and everything i stopped taking pictures of the plants so there will be a bit of a jump of growth in the pics. but they are just starting to bud up finally!

I went threw my phone photos and found some more missing pics of the plants before they started to show their pistils the pictures are from between the first post of pics to the pictures now. I also have some pics of the plant that I threw outside for better or for worse don't matter to me... :? but its the plant wen it was in the tent to the left side and i also took some pics of it outside of the tent on my dresser before i put it outside. I havnt taken any new pics of it outside because its sooo messed looking. I topped it to put it back into veg but only if it survives so right now its super pissed off at me lol so if you all want i can take a pic of it for some good laughs hah but if it comes back it would be the most epic bounce back ever!
and then the lower pics are the updated pictures as of today! :-o
I'm so happy with the big plant its looking amazing smells great too! i want to live in that tent sometimes

Yea I was given a little bit of Big Bud Boost nutes its lasted me up till today so 5 watering periods and I have totally noticed a difference in the growth. Today when i got back from the chiropractor appointment I took a look at them and omg! Its like the THC Fairy came over and sprinkled some goodness on everything :-o

Well i just got up and made my morning tea, and I decided to go out and take a look at the one plant I put outside, all i can say is LOL! I almost wish i took more pics of it but i will now! basically after like 2 or 3 days of it being out side almost every leaf on it went like white i shit u not fucking white! ive never seen any leaf like that the only thing i can think of is light burn from the sun cuz those leaves were grown under cfl's. last week i thought it was gonna die. but apparently not yet its growing new stems and leaves out of the spot were i topped it so it looks like it may just get back into veg and re grow im really excited to see how it looks by the end of summer. When the lights turn on in the tent ill take some newer pics for all of you guys including the one outside! be ready to lol at it :-o

if you planted your seeds directly in the soil it will take a couple of weeks till you see them. thats why i germinate my seeds inbetween 2 wet paper towels not wet enough that water comes out of the paper towels but wet enough that it stays moist. then i put the seeds in the towels and the wet paper towels with the seeds in them in side of 2 plates one face up (the bottom plate) and one face down as the lid keep the towels moist over 1-2 weeks till they germinate then put them in the soil and you should see them pop out in the next 1-3 days. so from seed till germinated in the towels took about 5 days and then another 2 or 3 days till u see them the way they are in that first photo

here are some pics from today, they are looking great still, and the buds sites are pretty much all filled out they just need to grow now! woot woot! month from now i'll be smokin some home grown :-o
The big one was a Hermie but im dam sure i got all the pollen sacks. Every day i take a look at it to make sure no more have re grown but it doesn't look like any new pollen sacks have grown so I think I'm in the clear! but the more bud that grows the harder and hared its going to get checking for pollen sacks.

A month from now, they will be curing- smokeable in 2. They do look pretty darn good though, crystals all over the leaves- i hope to soon post a picture i took with my macro sense. Looks badass- but will be even better in a month.

This is my 10th try to post from my account. Keeps logging me out each post attmpt.
 
Lame about the logging issues bquam but what's up man!

Plants are looking great guys. 1 month away! =P. I might let my og go about 5 more weeks for a total of 9. I might go a little earlier but it all depends. Too early to tell right now, on day 22 flower

i feel ya bro!

my recommendation just expired so I gotta renew it ASAP. Only like 1-2 grams left ahh.

Anyway

I decided I'm going to post some of my flowering pics for you guys to see how my plants have come!

You may remember the OG plant when I first got it at 4 weeks:
og4weeks.jpg

Here's my flowering tent about 3-4 days ago. OG is hogging it up! but Casey growing quite nicely as well.

Here's a bud shot of the OG.
IMG_0858.jpg

The main cola of the OG (has fattened up nicely in the past 3 days since these pics were taken)
IMG_0863.jpg

The entire OG plant with a failed size reference. It's a huge plant. So hard to move this thing around without damaging it.
IMG_0854.jpg

Another OG bud shot =P

IMG_0834.jpg


Since these pics were taken the OG has mostly just fattened up a little and also produced much more resin and is starting to smell more and more every day. Inside the tent is bud city, but it doesn't stink my house up yet.

Right now I'm on day....23 for the OG. I'll update with more pictures this weekend if you guys are interested. Otherwise I will stop spamming your thread with pics. =P

they are looking great man! ill throw up some updated pics today when the lights come back on, I fucked up tho i missed the watering yesterday morning and they didnt get watered till later that night but im sure they will be just fine! just a little droopy looking last night so I am hoping that when i open the tent up today that the fan leaves have perked back up. but the budding is looking so dam good! I cant wait to see one big ass nug on that plant and when its done i'm going to cut all the leaves off leaving the bud to take a pic of it looking like a bud bonsai tree :mrgreen:
