How could you grow in that small of a box? Are you gonna transfer later or is it possible to grow in there?

I actually don't have to light proof anything too much. I'm not worried about the "stealth" quality of it. It just sits in the corner, lights on during the day.

There are plenty of ways to keep the plants small and bushy. I only have 2 plants. AND I've put another box on top to account for vertical growth.

Haven't you ever seen a PC CASE grow? Those boxes are way smaller and still produce decent bud.

Outdoor grows happen with ambient light at night... ex: moon and starlight, street lights, etc. I figure as long as I don't turn the lights on during "lights off", I wont hurt them. A small trickle of light into the box will not make a difference.. The plant knows the difference.

Have you grown it or any of the other strains before? How did the bud turn out?

All the ones I got in now I have never grown before lol. I Have had nice bud from previous grows but this my first grow in a year. I want to find a strain this is going to be most suitable for my conditions and will give me the best yield to make the most money. Simple really.

Pineapple express for myself and friends mainly. Humboldt was a freebie so threw it in and NL was a freebie so threw that in but it's the most one I'm interested in. Wanna see how it yields. Not bad in veg ATM and plenty of cloning potential. May flower then re veg both NL & Humboldt

All the seeds I use have come from Medical bud I got from the Dispensaries in SoCal. I was smart enough to save them and label them as I found them. My First grow I had to pull early, due to spider mites. So I never saw the potential in what I was doing. I have some Pineapple Express in waiting, wonder if it will turn out like yours. Hopefully I can yeild enough to sell a bit, myself. $$
It's always a surprise! I'll have some new pics up soon. The Lavendar Satori x2 in flower have all kinds of bud points on them.. Little flowers everywhere!
How difficult is Re Veg?

Couldn't be simpler (although I never tried it) don't work on autos but literally harvest top lot and leave small leaves and pop corn stuff on bottom and 18/6 again.

let me know how it works. i'll have to try it later, just to know how to do it.

Very nice stuff! Subbed for sure! Woot Star Wars! lol. Stay Frosty.

Thanks dude! I donated my personal toy collection of ~100 Star Wars figures (original package) to a toy drive... I kept these.
This setup couldn't be easier, cheap too! Makes me happy.


Update! Today marked 2 weeks since I flipped the lights to 12/12, and things are moving right along.

Yesterday marked the 3 week mark for Flowering. When the lights come on, i'll take some pictures. I had family over yesterday, and then I had to work.. so the Girls got very little attention. A couple of hours... FLOWERS!

Just hit 3 weeks in 12/12. Not sure how long the flowering period is for these Lavender Satori, but I'm hoping no longer than 10 weeks. I like how they look so far. Can't wait to see how big they get. Anyone grown Lavender Satori before?

Thanks, Maariic. Stay Tuned. I try to update every Friday.

I couldn't find in google any seed bank info about this strain. Where does it come from?

subbing this thread. i just started something very similar about a week ago, except im using bag seeds to give the box a test run haha. good luck though, cant wait to see them closer to 6 weeks lol

I got them from my old connect, right after i'd got my MM Rec. He had grown this strain for a while... I'd ask him, but i have no way of contacting him now (fell out of touch). It's a Lavender crossed with Satori... Come to think of it... He may have crossed them himself, Idk.

Thanks, HB. I can't wait either. Everyday, when I get home from work, I swear they're a little bit bigger. I'm trying to put a few more lights in there, but wont be able to run to Home Depot til friday. I'm getting a Veg box ready too. The current one will be my flower box. Hopefully, I can pull off a perpetual set up. Harvest a plant every month or so, then replace with one from the veg box. Still in the works... Baby steps, right?
I also cannot wait til 6 weeks. Things will be much more appetizing, I hope.
