Turning Bagseed into Gold w/ CFL's (I hope)

what are your lights plugged into? and are you holding them together with something? your plants are sick. how tall is the biggest one?

I cut the ends off 6' extension cords and twisted the wires with the wires on the T thing, and then the extension cords plug into a power strip, which plugs into the timer and then the wall.

What do you mean by sick. I think they are fine, I watered today and they look even better. If im missing something please tell me. The tallest is prob like 16" without lst.

I think I can help with this one. ya see he ment that they look fucken beautiful.

now Im not quoting Sjapp but here in texas if someone says UR plant looks sick. then usuly it means that ur plant looks really good and healthy.

and I think UR plant looks killer.:thumbsup:

I think they meant sick as in nice. slang. You should look into the spectrum of the bulb. Your prolly using bulbs that would be better off in the flowering stage. 3000k range for flowering and 6000k range for veg. And please put something more reflective than black up. Even tin foil would be better. Have you thought about how your going to deal with the smell when u begin the flowering stage? Good Luck.

Ha ha...yeah. I freaked out like a parent who's kid just brained himself on the coffee table and doesnt know if he should cry or not. I kept looking at the pics and I was like there's nothing wrong with them, what is he talking about? and then I realized... I am semi retarded. So now that I know that, thanks for the props. I'll get pics when they wake up tomorrow. peace

Day 32
Last Day of Veg

I decided to make today the last day of veg. Because I put them in 1 gallon pots I think the faster I move them to 4 gallon the better. Some of the roots are starting to come through the holes in the bottom. So now I know for next time 2 gallon pots is a much better choice, I could veg maybe 6 or 7 weeks if I wanted with 2 gal.

Tonight the lights go off at 10, and im gonna leave it dark for 36 hours until 10am sat. then start 12/12. Im gonna wait to sex them before I transplant to save soil. They wont be happy with me for a week or so with little room to move, but I will pamper the girls who survive. I explained all this to them, so I think understand their destiny and have some incentive to stick it out.

Hope for girls everybody! peace

I would really get some white spray paint or some mylar... really quick.

Other than that, yo gals look beautiful

peace

Mr. Brown.

You have some "SICK" looking plants!!

HAHA Just had to say that after reading thru this.

Ok now to be serious!! You have some nice plants goin there that will benefit greatly with $15.00 worth of mylar on the walls or at least painted flat white. With CFL grows I recommend mylar because you are already one leg down in light intensity and you need to get every bit of available light to the plants not the walls.

BOL JG.

You should consider adding some more lights to the setup too. Sidelighting would help alot. And Remember for CFLs to work properly they need to stay within 5 inches of the leaves. Try for 70 watts of CFL/ Sq Foot of grow space.

Day 43


All right party people heres the news. I finally got some mylar up today, and transplanted the females to 5 gallon pots.

Now the sad news, 4 of 7 plants were male they were shredded up and sacked. So now I got 3 left to pamper. I started with the fox farms tiger bloom and I'm gonna go find some molasses for the next watering. peace
