my cfl grown afgooey plant (pics included)

dickholedick · Jan 25, 2009

heres some pics of my plant! its four weeks into flowering. i would really love to have some feed back on how you think im doing. this is an afgooey plant and its my first attempt at growing. it's a soil grown cfl lighted plant. i have 4 cfl(120 watts) bulbs and a heat lamp(125) pointed at my baby!

im using organic plant tone (5-3-3) 1 tablespoon and super bloom (12-55-6) half teaspoon. i put carbonated mineral water also! these all get thrown in once a week.
i was using a homemade co2 release. made out of sugar yeast and a half gallon of water! i was thinking of using some molasses the next time around. im down for any suggestions, thanks!

Mix 1ts-1Ts unsulphured molasses once a week..She'll like it. How often do you change the CO2 goo?

dickholedick · Jan 28, 2009

im using 4 120 watt cfl bulbs and i 125 watt heating lamp. but thinking about going back to 5 120 watt cfl bulbs. the heat lamp doesnt put off as much light as the cfl bulbs do, but the heat lamp has "infrared technology" so i don't know if that matters.i change the CO2 goo every 2-3 weeks or when it would stop building pressure.and i started the unsulphured molasses with just 1 teaspsoon.
i will be posting better pics in the near future.

hell yeahs I'll be keeping up on your posts this girl looks beautiful. I think maby more CFL bulbs would be good Maybe take out the heat lamp and put a cfl back in then put one more or maybe even two like on the ground or underneath it somehow so the bottom of the plant and the underneath growth can get some light too. the more light the more buds. Also I would recommmend change your homade CO2 once a week. I would also put 1 tablespoon in gallon of water when it comes to the molasses. But yes definently post more pics I cant wait to see it grow. YUM YUM YUM!

dickholedick · Feb 4, 2009

thanks for all the feed back. i know if i had used high pressure sodium bulbs that i would yield more, but im too paranoid rite now to use those bulbs so i experimented with CFL bulbs and it working the next time i grow i will use HPS.

yea even tho e-conolight doesnt have the $20 150 w hps they still have a 150 for for 40 in the flood light section.. or try 1000bulbs iff you want more wattage they sell the ballasts for around 50-60 and the bulbs for like 10 make sure to get a socket to tho $5

but i love that afgooey looks like proper tending beats wattage any day

i had a problem i had a heater in the room with my plant it got to hot and crisped the edges of some of the buds. i took the haeter out and put another light in there.just becuz it needed more light. what should i do about the crispiness will my plant go back to normal. i've been spraying water on them so hopefully that works let me know if you have any ideas!

Can't fix crispy...dont worry they'll smoke fine. Just keep the heater out of there
