Hi all,

This is my 2nd grow.

Using very cheap products to see what can be achieved.

6 x 100/20watt Energy Saving CFL's (will add another 2 During flower)
Wilko's Soil/Perlite/Vermiculite + bayonet light fittings + plugs + cable + pots

Total cost around £20

Purchased some Mylar - And also have Transplanted to a 6 Litre pot.

Started to grow with some Deformation, but I heard this is usual with Blueberry:

Now It has Started to Slightly grow out of it:

After The Transplant I Overwatered by accident - Think this is what caused these leaves to Yellow. I Then waited 4-5 days before watering again and the yellowing has Started to turn green again:

If you want to read up on my first grow im affraid its on another forum:
http://forum.everyonedoesit.co.uk/showthread.php?t=53716

It was an outdoor grow using Matanuska Tundra x Lowryder F1 cross.

No Auto Flowering - but a pretty good grow - obviously there is lots of things I would do differently now to increase potency, but it was a pretty succesful grow I think. But you can decide that.

This grow is going to be harder as this strain is a lot different to the previous strain I grew - might need some advice as im still a noobie!

Also - do you think the lights im using will be ok throughout?

Most people I see on here use the Spiral compact Flo's.

I know they are not ideal but I'm not planning on getting a 600Watt system until later this year.

Im only after around half ounce to an ounce maximum from this 1 plant. Maybe guna try either using the FIM or LST technique.

Any help appreciated,
cheers

I had 3.8 ounces dry from 5 plants.

Smoke was pretty good - Potency wasn't great as I dried too fast with the fan blowing directly on the hanging buds.

High was very good tho as the resin production on those plants was heavy!

why don't you start your own thread?

Anyway....

Starting to Pickup now!

I think im going to purchase 2-3 85watt Compact spiral bulbs to induce flowering.

probably wont start to flower until March though.

A thread of your own would be the best... new grow threads are always welcomed with open arms...

As to you question, please re-write it... I'm reading it, but I can't decipher what you're asking.

Best,
