New to CFL growing

I'm not sure, I'm almost at about 3 weeks, so i think I'll be flowering very soon.

getting big

And lookin good.

Been a while since I've updated this. Heres where it is now. Had to move it to a friends place, hopefully didn't stress them tooooo much. They still look happy I think. 2 males, 2 females.Showed sex weeks ago. about 4 or 5 more weeks left. LR2. 8 inch pots.

Looking good Heaven!!! loooooooking gooooooooooood.

:jointsmile: how long you been flowering for Balkey?

Also, glad to see I'm not the only one using video game cases to raise my plants :D

probably about a week and half or so. Still got like 4 or more weeks left so I expect a modest yield for my LR2, especially with it being my first grow and using NO nutes.

I'm wondering whether or not I should trim some leafs so my females concentrate on bud.....any ideas?

And my smaller female is smaller due to a late transplant. You live and you learn.

So are you keeping the males or what?

Yeah I just started flowering mine, so we will see how many turn up female :stoned:

Hell yeah I'm keeping the males. I'm not growing to sell bro, only for personal use. And LR can not be cloned so if I want to continue to grow it, which I do, I need to get seeds. :jointsmile:

AND, I don't think I will even wash down my grow box after the grow because, I don't mind finding a seed here or there, just assures me future plants.

I've learned a lot from this first grow so, thats the most important thing. :stoned::stoned::stoned:

Also curious what I can yield with these plants with no nutes...then try nutes and see what the yield is...I wonder what on avg. the increase is yield and size is when using nutes and not using nutes:cool::cool::cool:

Ah, I wasn't aware you were growing Lowrider. :thumbsup:

hows that new cabinet working out for ya? You gonna LST heavily once your babies get big?

New cabinet is working out great. I have 2 females out of 4, at the moment. Hopefully the others turn female also. I don't have a good camera at the moment so I probably wont be able to provide pictures of the pistols. Ill keep it updated :thumbsup:

And I'm thinking about LST or SCROG.

Yeah, I had 2 females out of 5....I hope my luck gets better in the future!!!!

The left two are female, and the right two haven't showed sex yet. I know they are small to be flowering, but we will see what happens. :thumbsup:

This plant hasn't showed sex yet, but it use to be drooping from over watering it. Hopefully it turns out female.

The big female is much taller. Also the unknown indica was cut awhile back and now has what looks like 3 tops

I think you love taking pictures. Nice looking though!!

Friend sent me some new pics, they are coming along. :stoned::stoned:

A little concerned if not perplexed why my clear hairs clearly are turning red within maybe 2 weeks into flowering. It is Lowryder but...still perplexing.

The sideways pic is the smaller of the 2 women.

looking good for 2 weeks man! :thumbsup:

I keep looking back and forth from the picture of the 4 pots 3 or so days ago and the newest pic of the 4 pots and am a little surprised at the growth. Puts a smile on my face!!

Maybe my friend is using steroids!!!.....I don't wanna be in the next steroids scandal!!

You do realize that your plants are breeding right now and your weed is going to end up with a bunch of seeds? I can't remember if you said you wanted that.

Oh Opie, you are a squirrelly fur ball! Yeah, I do realize that and am quite happy about it. Lowryder2 is the plant (can't clone). Is there something wrong with how it's being done? And, I'm not concerned, but just curious why the hairs are turning reddish already.

Either way, the weed with a bunch of seeds in it will still be better than the shit we have in my area right now. :mad::mad:

P.S. Glad someone else is popping to take a look at our progress! Thanks fur ball!!!:thumbsup::thumbsup:

No I don't think you were doing anything wrong. I was just pretty buzzed at that time and couldn't remember if you were trying to get seeds or not. Ah yes, Lowryder. I guess you gotta do that if you don't want to keep buying seeds. There's gotta be some way to clone it. There's gotta be some real nasty chemical somewhere that can keep autoflowering plants form flowering. OK, maybe not. And about the hairs, I've not grown Lowryder so I don't know if the hairs turn brown any sooner than average. Don't ever remember anyone saying anything about that. I don't think it's anything to worry about. I know some buds are just covered in hairs and some don't have many.

I swear I saw somewhere in my search a little while back of lowryder, that keeping it at a lower temperature something like 55F will prolong veg and then you could get clipping from it, but I have never seen that info again. I wish I didn't have to get seeds but oh wells!

have a good day!

I got tons of new lights. All together now I have three 42watts and six 23watts. So I have a total of 264 watts and about 17,400 Lumens. :thumbsup:

its so BRIGHT. Need some shades :thumbsup::cool: How you cooling it all down?

I got a little 12 inch fan blowing on them and shaking the plants a bit, along with the 2 pc fans behind them. I don't have a therm, but it doesn't get hot at all

I can't even look at that picture without squinting!.....wait wait, my eyes are already squinted......no idea from what though...hmmmm:stoned::stoned::stoned:

I have a cell phone camera. Sorry for the shitty quality :(

:stoned::stoned: It is coming along.

what day flowering are you on?

I got about 5 weeks left I believe. The progress is looking great. I love it.

It's pretty cool when you start seeing all your efforts come together, huh?

cool shit!

Yeah, Opie it really is. Its rewarding, in a strange way.

:jointsmile: sorry for the shitty picture again. It will be a month in 3 days.

You really need to go spend a little money to get ya an actual camera!!! DO IT!!!

Actually, my old roomate stole mine not too long ago.
