looks like you're in veg and are already out of room. what now?

newschool · Nov 11, 2008

still in veg. still in the room. the pictures out of the room were just to show height. The room is about 7 feet tall and the plant are about 4.
i think im gonna put them into flower next week

jesus420 · Nov 11, 2008

you know they're gonna get massive once you flower... they literally explode the first three or so weeks of flowering

CaliGurl · Nov 11, 2008

I think you'll be fine on height if they are only 4.. is that 4' from the top of the pot or including the pot?

cnymoeman · Nov 11, 2008

Looking good...How many lights are u using and what watt...What soil...Come one with porn like that u gotta give us details!!! Those are gonna fucking explode when u flower!!! How old are they??

siLky joHNsoN · Nov 11, 2008

wow looks good man im subscribing +rep

newschool · Nov 17, 2008

They are all about 4' with the pot. 2 of them are a different strain, and are huge. They are about 5'

21 in total:
9 300 watt red
4 90 watt red
8 100 watt blue

Their in some no name soil my Mom had.
and I think their about 3 months or so old. Im really terrible at keeping track how old they are. I just gauge by size

I'm gonna put them into flower tomorrow, I've been hesitant because thats when everything went downhill in my last grow. But I'm super excited with big expectations.

Thanks for the compliments.

Are those total of watts or each 300watts??? Cause thats alot of cfls...How fuck...I guess that's what u gotta do to get totals like a HID....Sick grow you really veged for 3 months???? Wow... Well i can't wait to see what your total dry weight is....Those are some of the biggest plants grown by CFL's i have seen....If thoses are 4 feet when in veg there gonna be like 5 feet!!!! They blow up when u put them in flowering.....

cnymoeman · Nov 17, 2008

How many plants do u have in total cause the first 2 pics look like you have atleast 3 or 4....

newschool · Nov 17, 2008

I just put them into flower this afternoon. When there are some rad changes there will be pics to follow.
I have A TON of lights. Its outrageous but its working.
I think they have been going since early september. They had a rocky start but once they got going... well they just wont stop.
There are 10 plants in total, but i can barely get in to water them they are so dense.

Off the top of my head, i know 300's are 85 actual watts, 90's are between 20 and 26 actual watts [100's are 26w], and the 100's are 26 actual watts.

Woah! Growing in mommy's house isn't good! Trust me. Even if her catching you isn't a problem, if the cops find it for some reason, they take her to jail.

This looks very nice! Very clean and good looking SOG-looking setup. A+ and +rep!

The 300 one is a 65 watt used

cnymoeman · Nov 17, 2008

O.k i never see people post what the equivelent to halogen is on here...But for the wattage you use you would be better off with a 1000 watt HPS....Your basically wasting 657 watts that could go to side growth!!! Now with 2 150 watt HPS for side growth your still saving 357watts your saving money, making your carbon footprint smaller and helping your plant out alot....I was talking to the guy at my local hydro store and they have a 150watt HPS and a 150 CFL both with ballasts...He was telling me that the CFL bulb is 80 bucks and the HPS is no more than 10....Even if you spend the money now on a 1000watt with a ballast you will be saving money in the long run on your electric bill and the buds will be so much better.....I'm gettin that 150watt HPS to replace my 3 23watt cfl and 1 42 watt cfl.....

cnymoeman · Nov 17, 2008

But i am basing my math on beginningbotanist420's quote of the wattage of the CFL's...

cnymoeman · Nov 17, 2008

And my math was off anyways your total wattage would be 885....But you would still be better off with a 1000 watt HPS...Sorry guys my bad...I guess that's what my 4 foot glass G-bub will do....

Im a week and a half into flower. The smell is coming, and Im loving it. I think the one Big Bud I got to sprout is a male, but one out of 10 is not bad.

cnymoeman I could not agree with you more. Its next on my wish list.

Thanks for the posts, I get excited when see people have something to say.
Ill post pictures when there is some worthwhile change to show.

cnymoeman · Nov 24, 2008

Can't wait to see pics man hope all is good....

newschool · Nov 26, 2008

I had to pull two plants yesterday.
Fucking males.
Of course, because they are males, they were my two biggest.
But i think the ladies like the extra space, their already spreading out a little more.
I think the next seeds I buy will be feminized.

newschool · Dec 1, 2008

Two weeks down, six-ish to go.
Went from 10 to 7 but it could be worse.
Three males, ironically they were the 3 that came from non-feminized seeds.
Left with all White Widow from clones.
Every one looks healthy, no major concerns yet.

Here are some pictures of the rejects
