i use an HID and cfls and then runs the pumps and fans and whatnot and my bill has gone up maybe 20 dollars....granted i just moved in as well as my roommates girlfriend so our bill was destined to go up regardless. and ya im deff gonna order some feminized seeds as well for my next grow....granted i am NOT gonna send them to my house...my best friend that i dont live with said hes cool with me sending them to his house and then ill go pick them up from him...iv heard nirvana sends them ina unmarked box...hidden in the back of a REAL cd case. with a cd in it and everything so im not to worried bout it.
Oh cool, well $20 ain't bad at all. I got some fem seeds from Nirvana last Dec, They were PPP. I got 10 of them, I couldn't get not even 1 to crack. They are really little, way smaller than the bag seed I've been using. Like a solid black sesame seed or something. Tried everything to get them to work, but nadda.
I still have 3 left, but gave up on them. I'd give em' to you, but obviously mailing shit ain't a safe idea. Yeah, my seeds showed up wrapped in a cool light up christmas stocking that I'm going to hang up this year. I'm going to try a known strain that other people have got to work, this sativa shit is too big for my closet. haha.

hahaha well damn that kinda changes my mind about ordering from them and ya deff wouldnt b a good idea to mail shit...of course both of us r straight but i dont think we can hide them as well as nirvana does lol. so what says u on me ordering some seeds? i mean are there other sites that uve heard of that are better? cus i mean i know theres 1000's of sites that sell seeds but iv heard of some that ppl never ended up even getting their seeds. but i really want some feminized seeds. i mean do u think those were just unlucky seeds and did u say anything to nirvana bout it...cus they say 100% satisfaction and shit but i mean if they send u seeds that wont even crack then u should atleast get ur money back or get some replacement seeds what is their contract on those thangs i gotta double check that shit cus i dont wanna order seeds that end up not working and spend 80 dollars on them. im double thinkin this shit now but i have found ppl on here that ordered seeds from them and got them to work but im wondering how often ppl have problems like this?

Oh, Well, I don't think they were bad, I just think maybe they are more advanced or something. They do look a lot different than seeds I've seen in the past 15 years, but it could be the strain. What I'm going to to do is get the seeds that they say are "entry level or beginner, or easy" I think the that an experienced grower may be able to get these to work. I gotta be doing something wrong I guess. All I can compare to is bag seed, and bag seeds just seem to spring to life. I let those PPP seeds soke in the same manner as the bag seed and nothing happened. Maybe order a variety, that way when you get your beans at least some will work. Didn't mean to spook you. haha. Good luck with them.

Yeah, I'm probably doing somethin wrong, but it makes me wonder why bag seeds are so eager to pop?

Hey bro, Thanks fro the +Rep. Yeah, I'm thinkin that I have a big ole bag of the same seeds. Re-hanging the lights every other few days ain't so bad. HAHA,... Yes, I have been checkin the trichs, they look clear, not cloudy yet. I smoked some last weekend and it delivered, so I think it's a week away. I want to flush the nutes thouroughly. Maybe next Friday or Thanksgiving day.

Chopped her down last week. put buds in jars for curing now. The pics below show the top cola next to 2Liter (not a 20oz) soda bottle for comparison. Some 17" long. Not a bad yield for 2 seeds. The cookie jar is 2 gallons and is almost full. Should have enough to last a while.

I think I'm going to surf all the web boutiques and banks and get something of the indoor variety. haha.

It was 15 or so 100w cfls for veg
then it was 17 100w cfls and 1 150w cfl for flower

6.0 ph

left the drip on the whole grow.

65%-70% hum during veg then 45%-55% hum towards the end of flower

Flushed once a week

Used fox farm nutes.
