First time growing with cfls

Didn't really get anything,but I only had the trim off of two small plants.I also didn't have real silk screen or a metal filter, ended up using some superfine cloth.I was a noob,so that's probably why.

sounds like i should just save what i have till i harvest a few more so it will be worth it, i only saved the stuff that was frosty too. Lol i dont even know what a metal filter is, I had an oldschool flour sift thing i was gonna use.. im definitely a noob at all this bonus shit, growing em was the easy part compared to this

Here's a metal filter.http://www.google.com/base/a/3414233/D3154502867162286038 I made some iso hash with my first grow, but it wasn't all that.then again, neither was my first grow.

Yeah, it was. But you have to make sure you let all the iso evaporate.

Thats hardcore. From what i just read it sounds like the iso method would be more effective but i think i might end up tryin the water hash thing just because i have all the stuff right now and i can hardly keep from tryin it im like a kid in a candy shop..........a strange dirty, weed filled candy shop, just my scene!

Check it out, some of the buds from a 3 plant harvest, looks good

with plexiglass front for easy peeks at my buddies

i re-arranged my cfls and added (1) 150w hps and (1) 175w mh. There are now eight 23w positioned around thr two hids

good shit man looks better every time i swing threw

Thanks man im learning something new each day too!! Now with the hps and mh i should really get rocking! Thanks for swingin by again!

Well guys its been fun but after these plants finish up im gonna have to strip down the closet............This week it has been reaching temps of up to 90 degrees and summer isnt even here yet...... soooooooooo................. I have begun framing out a wall dividing my room in half. I am also framing a wall with a door dividing that space in half. There is a window with a windo ac wich i will vent into each half of the grow area. on one side i will have 6 32w 4ft 5500k flos to clone and veg for two weeks and a 100w MH for a mother plant, and several shelves for storage. On the other side i will have a 400w hps 70w hps 175w mh and random 23w 2700k, two fans and an exaust fan.. I will setup light proof passive intakes between each half of the area and one back into the rest of the
room.

I will be using soil again WIth 1/2 gal containers. I will also be keeping a bucket of ph'd water in the room so it will be at room temp.

How does this setup sound to everyone?? My goal is to be able to run a constant cycle and have a hrvest of at least a pound.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated since i am kinda making this part of my house?

AFter harvesting many plants and doin alot of smokin i forgot what the internet was but luckily i remembered about good ole rollitup.org . over the next couple days ill be starting a new thread about my new setup and ill throw a link on the end of this one.
