whats good everybody, i guess you can call me brandnewlighter... pretty new to the site, and a complete noob when it comes to growing.. but i love enjoying good nugs up here in the nw, so i figured why not lets do this!! :joint:

def gotta give props to everybody growing with cfls cause reading everybody's posts gave me the boost to give it a try, im a college student in a town where good herbs arnt too hard to find.. but a freekin part time job is in very short supply so the cfl thing appeals to me cause im straight broke most of the time haha :blsmoke:

well i guess ill finish this up by saying my set up is as my uncle would say "mickie mouse" or extremely amateur. and my pics are off my cellphone but, ill try to put up at least 1 pic a day and a brief note if i can.

so feel free to give me ideas or clown on it.. haha its all good :blsmoke:

(im gonna attach all the pics i took so far.. might be more than one per day..)

well thats it for now that plants been in dirt for like 14 days, so after this ill probably just put one pic up a day.. but till then smoke em if you got em...

How many days into Vegg is this? Im about 20 days in and mine are close to that size..im going to flower mid 3rd week...im just using a 70 watt HPS..check out my grow if you'd like its in my signature. And best of luck with everything! :peace:

genfranco · May 28, 2008

Hey bud,... HOw tall are you planning on making this lady?... Im saying cause i would probably start flowering now if you dont want a 6 foot tree... heheheh

wait how big is that pot... that might be smaller than i think..

jlang309 · May 28, 2008

props mane, more prgress than i

brandnewlighter · May 28, 2008

the pot is like 8" across 7" tall, yeah i started flowering last night, might have to move my set up around a little cause i cant really make the lights any higher.

genfranco · May 28, 2008

Welcome....just a thought...If your moving (into a new place I hope, not homeless) it would be easier to keep it veging at 24/7, that way the absolute DARK needed for flowering won't be put at risk..It will get some light during the move, and won't freak out the plant (as much)........just a thought......maybe others will give input....

brandnewlighter · May 28, 2008

yeah the way i have it right now its sitting on top of a shelf with the top light attached to a closet rod. but im gonna try to find something lower than the book shelf for it to sit on so it has more room.

genfranco · May 28, 2008

there ya go man... shit dont think too hard.... upside down bucket... phonebooks... just about anything works.. hell get yourelf a shelf with a few bricks...

brandnewlighter · May 29, 2008

whats up just took a couple pics enjoy :joint:

tom__420 · May 29, 2008

Hey brandnew, I was wondering if you had looked into y splitters so you can double your bulbs and surround the plant with more light. You can find them at Home Depot or Lowe's or any other home improvement store for relatively cheap. Hope this helps.
