Figured I'd share.






Took some of the weaker bottom branches first









I harvested over the course of the day as I had alot of building to get done before my room mate gets home and wonders why me of all people is using a power tool:




Later on I came back and took the middle growth:



And finally manicured away the top portion on the plant before chopping it all the way:





Ta da.








Not too shabby and actually the best density I've gotten out of CFLs yet





marks the last flowering job of the ghettobox as my HPS lights are here and my mothers coming up but I figured I'd share. The box was vented with two PC fans across the tub but that shit was weak so I just trained a vertical house fan on the box and blasted it across the lights. There was also another light splitter in the middle with another bulb and you can just the see the edge of a T8 fluro bay along the bottom of the frame that is going in that little cubby for mothers and rested above for the grow.

Looks like to early of a harvest just my opion but congrates hows the high?

I actually thought I was a couple days late since I'd planted it on Nov 7th but who knows. I haven't tried it yet, just took it down this morning and probably won't for a few weeks. I really hate that chlorophyl taste and have enough good weed to last me a few weeks into the cure atleast so I'll update you then.

Dude from those photos it looks like you had a rather skimpy yield, if the CFLs you had a photo of where the only ones your used your wattage was way too low and you can attribute it to that. If i'm not mistaken it looks like you have a meager 87 watts in that photo. Its really important to keep the CFLs as close as possible to the mature plant without actually touching the leaves, and I think you should have had at least 5 42 watt cfls for that one plant alone. My last CFL grow yielded alittle over three ounces of dried herb from some random seed that I came across.

My current CFL grow is 4 weeks and a day, i started flowering on day 17. Its currently stands 13 inches with an impressive 151/2 inches or width
