Thanks acidburn901, If its good indica your growing,the odds are good the results could be the same.that was the 1st time we grew any and we certainly got Very lucky.out of two seeds that germed,both were female
As long as you give them what they need,they will grow.All our friends come by with good seeds now wanting us to try and grow them.
good luck with your grow man,if I can help ya let me know
Thanks, We cut 2 clones from each plant to sex them at 6-7 weeks old,meanwhile we saw preflowers on the plants and knew they were female.the 2 clones from the 2nd plant died from poor drainage(drowned).the 2 from the 1st plant survived and are 24'' mothers now.we just put one into flower.keeping the other for cuttings.We thought about revegging Mary(2nd plant) but the success rate is low and it takes some time.We decided to concentrate our efforts on others.heres what the mothers looked like a week or so ago.they are on the left of 1st pic.the other 2 are when they were a few weeks younger

Thanks darknem,1st grow but we did good with these 2 ladies, from bagseed.
Thanks to you 2 kamgrow,Ive been told by friends that are growers the same thing.BC bud. Its unknown bagseed,We think its northern lights with possible cross of something else.yes molasses was used in mid to late flowering stages.Not alot of nutes used.only some big bloom.They seemed to not like alot of nutes for some reason.
Thank you Mikey,And may the force be with you

Just got through this thread and wanted to +rep ya on a killer cfl grow!
I'm using the same nutes (big bloom and tiger bloom) and similar lighting (12 26w cfls, 2 t5ho's, 1 65w cfl...also a 150w hps for good measure) and am just starting week 2 of 12/12.
I think the strain does make a huge difference, as you pointed out a couple times in the thread. People shouldn't expect quite the same results, but you have proven enough cfls and tlc will produce a quality product.
Did you ever consider topping? Your main cola looked so good, you should top to get 4 of them! Your side buds looked great, but you appear to have the space and resources to experiment a little, so maybe consider it? Uncle Ben has an excellent thread detailing how to produce the 4 cola's...
Keep up the good work! And the posts!
