CFL KC36 & Royal Dwarf

They are looking great! ... Are you going to leave them in those pots? I'm trying smaller pots this time around.

Yeah, I don't have the height for them to grow much taller, nor the space for them to grow wide, so im looking to just get one cola and on each. it will probably look like a scrog when i get it all figured out, but for now 4" pots is what they will stay in.

yeah dude, that would be nice to have, but the fact is those are pretty pricy and that's money I currently cant afford to use on my grow. I must stick with cfl's. As this grow continues to grow, i will be able to add to it; such as a larger flowering cabinet in my closet, and hps or UFO's. I must make sure this grow works without my roommates knowing before I decided to upgrade.

Got a new phone today with an 8 mp camera. Pics soon ^_^

take a pic of your girls also!

Took pics, making sure all exif data is removed (gps info - http://forum.grasscity.com/security/811423-before-you-upload-camera-phone-picture-exif-data-you.html) then I will create a journal and link it.

Made thread but havent put up pics yet as im about to go run and get some herbal remedies for the night. Will post as soon as im sky high

edit: got pics up, enjoy

I transplanted my Royal Dwarf today into a 6" pot. her buds are really growing fast and i want make sure she has enough of a root system to be able to produce the best bud possible. I know that this may stunt her growth for a few days, and I feel it is worth it. Pics coming soon.

peeeeekzzz plzzz. im starting to think my pots are TOO big for my grow... 6" pots would have made a lot of things easier

As requested! Remember Royal Dwarf genetics are made to be a short plant, so it might not be the best idea to compare it to this plant.

Also, my flower lights go off at 5pm, so pics of my girls in the flowering container are going to have to wait until the morning.. sorry.

Lastly, this is week 2 of feeding. They are responding well to nutrients. (at least they are not dieing)

Royal Dwarf & KC-36 Mother : Day 22
Old flowering girls - Day 14 (Edit: these are also 22 days old, Just been flowering for 14 days)
Young Flowering Girl - Day 7
Youngest Flowering Girl - Day 4

Enjoy (Sorry for the blurry pictures, the lighting is really bad at this hour in my room)

Thanks for stopping by! I really want to setup a mini hps in my closest, I just have to figure out how to hid it from my fam and roommates. So for now, i must live with this tiny ass grow for my personal stash. I'll be checking out ur grow here in a sec.

I really like how short they are, I wish I would have switched mine to 12hrs earlier, but I still have just enough room in my box, so I might get lucky. But just dropping by to tell you how good they were looking.

Hey guys, just thought I'd let you know, my mother KC36 is doing really well as you saw in the last pic update. Her sprouts are getting close to being big enough to clone, which means my clone/flower cycle i have in mind will be getting set up within the next week. Im thinking, Scrog, but then i need to figure out how i am going to care for and water my ladies.

As i said in previous post, i really want to set up a hps in my closet, and now that it is cooling of I think my fans can handle the temperature. I just dont know about the smell and such. I think a carbon filter with the right fan will be too loud. Right now I am using some ONA. It does the job, but it makes my room smell like a fucking public restroom which sucks dick. I am using some frebreeze disposable oil sent things to mask the smell of the ONA lol. They just run out so damn fast. I guess that's the price i pay for not getting an active carbon filter.

My Royal Dwarf is responding well to the recent transplant. Her buds are still growing fast, and hopefully they will continue to do so now that her roots have some extra room to grow. I expect no change from her for the next week as she will be focusing on her root system, but after that i expect her to take off (maybe get a little extra height) as she does have a good 3-4 extra inches she can grow.

Again i really want to get a mini hps. Also I want to get some FF and get away from MG. I have just been looking as so many amazing results from people using FF. UPGRADE maybe next year. I'll be saving my moneyyyy (which growing my own meds help me do).

Side not (irrelevant to grow update). Somehow drugs came up with my roommates last night (one roommate has no issue with mj, just doesn't smoke it). The other thinks it's the worst thing ever, and then i simply asked him how he knows. He just responded with "I just know it's bad". Then i asked if he'd ever tried it, and he said no.... so obviously he's another brain washed American, nieve to the fact that he could benefit from this amazing plant (he has hand tremors which is almost like MS, but not MS.)

Anyways I'm done with my rant, I will be posting pics after classes are done fort he day, which should be about 4-5pm PT. probably right have 4:20

Thanks, yeah I put them into the the flowering container after one week. I knew when i bought Kc36 that it was a shorter plant that liked to have only one main cola, which is what my grow desires. I'm really happy with the results so far. If they get to tall, you can just put them between lights, or pull them over to the side which promotes bud swelling (later in the flowering stages). Also check out the 12-12 from seed thread. It has a lot of really good info if you need your plants to be on the shorter side.

I'll be checkin out your grow as well here in a few minutes. I have a list of them i want to read up on.

Sucks about the roommate situation. Those are the worst kind (close minded ones). Get you some 420 friendly roommates. Dogs are good

Haha, I had one last year, but he graduated and moved back home. My bday is 4-19, so we make cookies on 4-19 and then ate 3 of them on 4-20. Good times!

Very nice man subbed up.

Thanks dude!

That's a nice bday to have haha. Not sure what I'm gonna do for 420 all I know.is I'm saving change and kief for it

Hey guys, so I now have those pictures.

To start off thought, I would like to mention that the brown spots that you see in the pics are a combination of CFL burns (cuz these girls were growing fast) and nutrient burn. The nutrient burn was from when they were much shorter (less stretch) and the soil got on the leaves when I watered. I'm going to tell you now, if you ever use MG soil, make sure not to get wet dirt on your leaves, it is just like dumping nutes on the leaves. I know this now .

Now for the pics!


The tallest two plants are both about 15 days into flowering. Still no sign of sex. I am expecting it within the next week. Also I am grabbing some black plastic in a little bit, because i feel that light from my veg container might be leaking into my Flower container. I checked it earlier and it doesn't look like it (but it's daytime and I'm high) so just to be safe I'm going to rig up a cover for the flower container that will not let any light into it. Will post pic of it on next update.

The smaller girls are about 10 days and 5-6 days into flower. This first pic, you can see the CFL burn very well. actually She has a burn on both leaves. This however is not why she is so much smaller than the others. I put her into the flowering container about 4 days after she popped out of the soil.

Enjoy.
