A challenge .. Great stuff..... I have germed 5 but one popped out os soil last night (afghan), which will be used in the comp.

I keep mothering mine too much so you will probably win .. hehehe

Any more challengers .??? .. your seed can be either just germinated or within one week of sprouting ...

I will add a photo when i come home from work .... better be more posts by the time i get back ...

Oh yeah.. If you add pics add a label to your pot with RUI virgins .... lol

Great stuff the more the merrier, Big Bud are huge seeds ... kept warm they can sprout in around 24 hours.
What is your lighting?

I use cfls but lol my Veg will kick ass but flowering your mh might be a little better as ive got,
2 x 85w big Cfls (5200) lumens each 1 x 30w little Cfl (2000) lumens
3 x F tubes (20-30w)equal to about (6000) lumens
so i got about a total 18,400 lumens
Where as you have got a Mh and a 400w one has about 32000 lumens

Yeah but i never mentioned ... i think my last batch died from heat stress (+wrong compost), oh and messing too much hehehe. I will swap to HPS in flower, but only 250w.



Just to set the rules, are we allowed to add lights along the way because i was thinking of adding a few cfl's to bottoms of plants (if not topping/ fimmin not decided yet) when in flower, but i can hold off if this is not allowed, whatya fink?


4 contestants .... Any more?????
:weed::weed::weed::weed: <-- Us after the comp.:joint::mrgreen:

You want around 68 watt fo tubes cheap as fuck 8 bucks two of these will grow ok buds but if you put them on the sides it help make the plant taller and buds bigger
But lol im all Cfls none of mine die lol Cfls Rock

Check these out Growing Marijuana With Fluorescent Light Bulbs, Growing cannabis under TL light
lol just two 86watt bubls

What a great link, very inspirational ... I got most my info from that site but never saw that page :)

Heres my grow room, my seedlings are on top of light reflector at moment ... the rest in there are vegetables n herbs lol, but they willl be off to the great outdoors soon.


My light is support by garden wire and four eye hooks (my invention), the hooks are on walls not top. so i raise the light by pulling both wires at same time. I did this as i can put the light at angle by just pulling one wire.

Yes that is a potato at the top ...

Hey this competition is a cool idea Kandi! I'm still building my grow cab, so I'm a month or so away from actual planting, but when I do start I'll definitely start a second round of this thread!
