I was just thinking if you mount one of those fixtures on each wall, then use a light called ''hook light'' for the top lighting would be perfect. A hook light is something that is used as a work light, but you can put a splitter in it that can take 2 bulbs, well if you put a splitter in each socket, then the light will be able to use 4 lights. Get it? If you look in my log in here there are pics that would help. I used 3 for 4 plants and just harvested about 2oz's. cfl's work well IMO.

Any help just let me know:rasta:

Ohh i see what your saying. But unfortunally there is only 1 wall, the otherside is closet doors. Plus if mounted 2 of those fixtures in the closet along with hanging cfl's from the top that would be over 50 cfl bulbs lol. It would be killer thou if someone could get away with it.

idk one day someones house is gonna burn down from a overload im just wondering whos got enough stupitity and the money to run like 100 cfls too 200 how would it work i wonder ?? i know my plants would love that !!

Just gotta know what your doing when you are wiring and setting up. 100-200 cfls would cool too see but would cost too much for anyone to i think attempt it

Took some pictures of the lower side buds. little purp up in there. Thats what i like to see.

Well i wouldn't ever tell someone to invest in 50 cfl's. Hell it would be cheaper to get a 600hps cool tube. Well if you mounted half the light on the wall you have, then hang the hook light above, you could just turn the plant each day. Its just that side lighting is important using cfls. After your plant gets up there, you will see the problem with side lighting. Yields are bigger when iv seen good side lighting when cfl's are used. I know i wish i had more, but thats for next grow. Grow an learn ya know:thumbsup:

Keep er green man:rasta:

Ya. I plan on LSTing my next crop for that exact reason. That will help get my light as close as possible to all the buds and will also prevent me from having to to harvest the top half and then wait for the bottem to get done. Im going to start a few more plants then i expected as well. I figure i might as well pop a few into my backyard and top and fimm the hell out of them and see how big and bushy they can get. I have a feeling it is going to be a very enjoyable summmer. :smokin:

i secound that this summers gonna be great .....i got some gurilla in me that gonna show itself this year its gonna be a white xmas for sure .... my new years resolution was to grow more than last year and since i got a messly 4gram of my little mother last year (well besides the outdoor harvest) but i got a harvest comming up on the 28th but i think ill let it go till april to make sur ill have some 420 smoke

Second girl is really starting to grow her buds up and out. looking nice.

few pics of the girls.. the youngest one has become a beauty. lots of bud growth still to come on her too. Oldest bitch is taking forever to ripen up. Just keeps swelling and swelling leaves getting darker and darker. alot of new growth on the buds as well. Trichs are still 85% milky so ill just keep waiting

Here is the finished product from the oldest one. It is super super tasty. Has a real intense head perky high. makes ears tingle etc etc. I yeilded 26 grams. Little less then an ounce. The quality of it is fantastic. Im really happy with the outcome. I will post other girl once she starts to mature and finish.

Beautiful buds! they look absolutely delicious :jointsmile:

that looks soooooo tassttyyyy:thumbsup:

because if it is, its a shame what people do to weed before it hits the market lol. or is it like dank bagseed? cuz i always considered bagseed from plain old bud or "Regs" . anyways, looks great and is very inspiring to new growers such as myself

It was some seeds i found in some dank bags ive bought. I figure id learn my first time on some free seeds before i dove right in and started spending money on this hobby which i now enjoy alot. With a little tender care growing a plant for hobby rather then profit will produce 10x the quality of bud. Mexican dirt weed at one point grew on a plant that prolly looked and smelled great.But the processing methods of that bud really does a number on it. Ive enjoyed growing this bagseed and will continue to grow unknown and bag seeds whenever given the chance.

as for the drooping of your leaves. move the lights closer to the plant and even ad more light to promote the leaf perking up. and dont water but every couple of days. for the flowering of the plants definatly wait for the leaves to get back up before you change to the 12/12 lights. but you can start to flower whenever you want but just know that the smaller your plants are when you start flowering the less you will yield when your plants are fully mature.

lol umm did you even read any of this thread? or did ya read like the first post and decided chime in? Thanks for the reply anywho.

here is the other lady. She is just in the last couple days started to pack on some weight. Cant wait till she is done.

Here is the Monster lady who in my eyes has turned out awesome. She smells so sweet, almost like a bag of skittles. Im flushing her now so in about another week she will be cut. I cant wait to see what she yeilds dry. She is very dense and heavy. The top cola is the biggest one ive ever seen in real life. I wish i would have taken cuttings from her so i can keep this strain :(

Well here she is cut and drying. The sweetest cannabis i have ever smelled. Smells like a citrus fruit. The main cola was so heavy cant believe it didnt bust over when growing. I will post Dried weight in about a week. Anyone wanna take any guesses how much that is dry?

She turned out way better then i thought she would when i first started. My guess is its going to be about 70 grams. Its very dense buds. and that main cola is just massively heavy. Time will only tell.

i was going for super dry and super cured but ut better to tell becuz i cant actually feel or see those buds so i cant imagine what they look or weigh like, but 70 grams of PENG weed is not a bad crack :thumbsup::thumbsup::jointsmile:

Final Dry weight was 71 grams. Not bad for a first harvest.

that bud does look scumptious. Congrats mate

nice work...

Cool looking cola
